DUNEDIN, Fla. (AP) — Drew Hutchison and Dustin McGowan have won spots in the Toronto Blue Jays rotation.
Manager John Gibbons announced the news before Wednesday’s game against the New York Yankees.
Hutchison will pitch in the Blue Jays’ second regular-season game Tuesday at Tampa Bay. McGowan beat out several other fifth starter contenders and is lined up to pitch the home opener with the Yankees on April 4.
McGowan has pitched in just 30 big league games, including 25 relief appearances last season, since right shoulder surgery in July 2008.
