Michael Lorenzen will be available to go long, but the Jays might try to get through the game using primarily short relievers if it stays close. Spencer Miles, who threw two innings as the only reliever used by the Jays on Tuesday, should be the lone unavailable member of the pen.
Fisher holds a 4.15 ERA and a 52/26 K/BB ratio over 52 innings in the bigs this year, while occasionally serving as an opener.
Fisher is presumably away from the club for an unspecified reason. The 26-year-old spent time on the bereavement list earlier this month. He’s compiled a solid 4.15 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 52/26 K/BB ratio across 52 innings this season.
The 25-year-old right-hander was away from the team for the first half of the week. He returns to a terrific 3.33 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and a 46/21 K/BB ratio over 46 innings in 43 appearances out of the Jays’ bullpen. He has also tallied three victories and a save on the year.
Fisher will be away from the club for a couple days on bereavement leave. The 25-year-old reliever has pitched to a solid 3.33 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 46/21 K/BB ratio across 46 innings this season.
Fisher got the call to work the final frame with Louis Varland, Jeff Hoffman and Tyler Rogers presumably unavailable after pitching each of the previous two days. It wound up being an uneventful frame as Fisher needed just 15 pitches (10 strikes) to slam the door and collect his first career save.
The Rays led 5-0, but the Blue Jays tied the score with a five-run seventh inning. Still tied in the 10th inning, Fisher entered. The first run scored on a single before a walk and wild pitch set up another run to score on a sacrifice fly. Fisher was given his first loss of the year after the Blue Jays could only score one run in their half of the 10th inning.
Fisher got the final six outs and kept the Rays off the board even while having to deal with the zombie runner at second in both innings. The 25-year-old is now 7-0 on the season, and he’s forged a 2.78 ERA over 47 appearances with a K/BB of 60/16 across 45 1/3 innings. He should be a high-leverage option for the Jays again in 2026.
