Key Storylines
Pitching matchup
Logan Gilbert is a dependable, well-rounded righty who has had a solid 2025 season. He went 6–6 with a 3.44 ERA and 173 strikeouts in the regular season and has a 1.13 ERA in 8.0 postseason innings. His road splits are particularly strong, and he has routinely delivered quality starts.
Trey Yesavage is set to start this game for Toronto. He debuted in mid-September and has made just a handful of starts. But in his postseason debut during the ALDS, he threw 5.1 hitless innings with 11 strikeouts against the Yankees. He will try to prove that performance was no fluke in this game.
Key Players
- Cal Raleigh: A homer in Game 1 indicates Raleigh is locked in and the AL MVP candidate will try to make an impact again here.
- Vladimir Guerrero Jr.: Guerrero has had a huge postseason and it would be huge for the Jays if he produced to give Yesavage some run support.
- George Springer: Springer already made history with a leadoff homer to open the series. He was the only source of offense for Toronto in Game 1 and will be important here as well.
Recent team streaks
Seattle has won two straight games and are 4-2 in the playoffs thus far. The Blue Jays have gone 3-2 in the playoffs after losing the opening game of this series and beating the Yankees 3-1 in the ALDS.

Final Thoughts
The Mariners seized momentum early in this series and I don’t expect them to give that momentum away here. Yesavage looked great against the Yankees in his postseason debut, but I think he will struggle in trying to sustain that in this contest. Raleigh should go deep again and the Mariners should take a 2-0 series lead on the road.
