Blue Jays' Kevin Gausman shares his thoughts on offseason, Max Scherzer via Sportsnet 590 The Fan.

"Honestly I'm exited to watch how he competes the stuff is incredible, to be 41 and still compete is more impressive than anything to me. He has a bulldog mentality on the mound, he pitches like a closer as a starting pitcher, that's one of the greatest assets that you can have. He just wants to rip your throat out and I've always really loved that about him. He is one of the best pitchers of our generation and I'm really looking forward to being around him."

I really like what the teams has done already, the names that we've been connected with, sign all those guys up! And if they don't sign in Toronto you really cant hold it against those guys, because you only get one big bite at free agency

"I've gotten a lot smarter over the years I listen to my body more than I did when I was 22 or 23. My pitch ability now is better than its ever been, I have the ability to be able to throw multiple pitches, for a long time I never wanted to I never wanted to throw a cutter because I thought it would take away from how good my four-seam fastball is. Now I'm at the point where I think I should have a cutter in my back pocket. And talking to Bassitt he's really opened my eyes to how many pitches he throws 8 or 9. His whole thing is he wants to be able to exploit a weakness if a guy has it. For me its about learning on the fly, If I don't have my A+ fastball then I really need to pitch that day.
