The Toronto Blue Jays announced Thursday morning the starting pitchers for their first four games of spring training, a lineup that will include Max Scherzer and Bowden Francis.
The Blue Jays are now fully into spring training and they are set for their first game on Saturday against the New York Yankees in Dunedin.
For the first game of spring training that will take place on Saturday, the Blue Jays will have pitcher Easton Lucas kick things off against the Yankees.
On Sunday against the Boston Red Sox, the Blue Jays will have Yariel Rodriguez taking the mound followed by Jake Bloss.
The Blue will then take on the Detroit Tigers on Monday, in which fans will get to see Bowden Francis pitch.
Finally, on Tuesday, the man all fans have been waiting to see, Max Scherzer, will take the mound for the Blue Jays against the St. Louis Cardinals, in which Jose Berrios will then follow him.
While fans will be happy to simply see the first game of spring training, the most interesting starters here will be seeing Scherzer and Francis, as fans have high expectations for both these pitchers heading into 2025.
