Stroman struggles in return to mound from DL as Blue Jays fall to Rays 7-1
Toronto Blue Jays starter Marcus Stroman and his ailing finger pointed the blame at himself for his most recent outing.
“I just had no feel today,” he said. “I didn’t make the pitches I needed to and I kind of paid the price. I didn’t execute.”
Stroman was pulled in the second inning after allowing four runs and six hits as the Tampa Bay Rays defeated the Toronto Blue Jays 7-1 on Monday.
The 27-year-old was making his first start since Aug. 17. Stroman (4-9) was activated from the disabled list after a struggling with recurring finger blister that refused to fully heal between scheduled starts.
