Shoemaker (right shoulder) should be able to work up to roughly 60 pitches in his return from the injured list. If all goes well, the veteran right-hander could build into a role as the club's No. 3 starter in the postseason.

2-3, 7.01 ERA, 39 SO
It's all about home runs and walks for Roark, who enters with a 6.41 ERA and still hasn't found his groove. How he'll be used in the postseason remains unclear, but a pair of strong starts to end the season will be key for the veteran right-hander.

LHP
2-5, 6.62 ERA, 68 SO
After allowing the Phillies five runs over 4 1/3 frames Friday, this will be a key step in establishing his postseason role. Barring an unforseen change, he'll likely be a multi-inning relief arm in the Wild Card Series but could start, if needed, later in October.

With a 3.00 ERA, Ryu has been the ace the Blue Jays hoped for when they signed him to a four-year, $80 million contract. This start will be about making any final adjustments he needs before starting Game 1 in the postseason, where he'll be asked to carry a heavy load.
