Right-hander Kevin Gausman will get the start for the Toronto Blue Jays in Game 1 of the American League Championship Series against Seattle.
The Blue Jays confirmed the news Saturday morning when they released their workout plans for the day at Rogers Centre.
Gausman will share the mound with Mariners starter Bryce Miller, who last appeared in Game 4 of the ALDS on Wednesday.
You can watch Game 1 on Sportsnet and Sportsnet+ on Sunday at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT.
Gausman earned the win in Toronto's 10-1 victory over New York in Game 1 of the AL Division Series last weekend. He allowed one earned run and four hits over 5 2/3 innings.
Schneider said it was a "definite possibility" that rookie Trey Yesavage could start Game 2 and Shane Bieber could start Game 3. That would be a repeat of the starting order in the ALDS.
The Blue Jays advanced to the ALCS with a 5-2 win in Game 4 on Wednesday night at Yankee Stadium. Seattle earned the other berth in the best-of-seven ALCS by outlasting the visiting Detroit Tigers in a 15-inning marathon Friday night.
The Mariners, meanwhile, weren't expected to arrive in Toronto until late Saturday night. Seattle had to use starters Logan Gilbert and Luis Castillo in relief in their deciding win over the Tigers, a game that lasted just under five hours.
Miller, 27, posted a 5.68 ERA over 18 starts this season, striking out 74 and walking 34 in 90.1 innings.
He allowed four hits and two runs over 4.1 innings while recording two strikeouts against the Tigers.
The righty was also roughed up in his lone regular-season appearance against the Blue Jays on May 11, when he surrendered eight hits and seven runs over five innings.
It's Seattle's first ALCS appearance since 2001. The Blue Jays last played in Major League Baseball's final four in 2016.
Game 2 was scheduled for Monday in Toronto. The series will shift to Seattle for Game 3 on Wednesday and Game 4 on Thursday.
If a fifth game is necessary, it would be played on Friday at T-Mobile Park. Toronto would host Game 6 on Oct. 19 and Game 7 on Oct. 20 if needed.
The ALCS champion will advance to the World Series against the National League champion. The Blue Jays haven't won the Fall Classic since 1993.
