OAKLAND -- Sam Gaviglio is not in danger of losing his job any time soon but the 28-year-old will have to find a way to start eating up more innings if he wants to remain in the Blue Jays plans beyond this season.
Gaviglio once again struggled to pitch deep into a game as he lasted just 2 2/3 innings during a 6-2 loss to the A's on Tuesday night at Oakland Coliseum. The second-year hurler allowed five runs on eight hits and two walks while striking out two as the Blue Jays lost for the sixth time over their last eight games.
