Once again, Marcus Stroman will pitch in a crucial postseason game.
The Toronto Blue Jays pitcher started the team's wild-card game against Baltimore earlier this month and will get the nod in Game 3 against a Cleveland team that leads the ALCS 2-0 and is has won five straight playoff games.
The Blue Jays have managed only one run through the first two games of the series, failing to take advantage of Cleveland's injury-riddled rotation.

The Indians will counter with right-hander Trevor Bauer, who pronounced himself ready to pitch after an unusual injury. Bauer said the stitches he needed after cutting his finger repairing a drone shouldn't be an issue Monday night against Toronto.

Bauer brought a drone with him to a lighthearted news conference Sunday, and he briefly demonstrated how he cut his right pinkie on a propeller Thursday night. Bauer was initially supposed to pitch Saturday, but Josh Tomlin started instead and the Indians won to take a 2-0 lead in the series.
