TORONTO -- The Rangers have revealed their postseason roster for the American League Division Series, and the bullpen includes right-handers Ross Ohlendorf and Chi Chi Gonzalez over left-handers Andrew Faulkner and Sam Freeman.

The best-of-five Division Series against the Blue Jays begins today at 2:30 p.m. CT (Fox Sports 1).

The Rangers included five starting pitchers, so either Martin Perez, Derek Holland or Colby Lewis will be used out of the bullpen. It most likely will be the left-handed Perez since Jake Diekman would otherwise be the only lefty in the bullpen.

Chris Gimenez and Robinson Chirinos will be the catchers.
