The Blue Jays have realigned pitcher Marcus Stroman 's throwing schedule so that he pitches the same day as Dustin McGowan, according to Sportsnet.
There was a report earlier in the week suggesting Stroman was close to being called up, and this could be a sign that it will happen soon. McGowan has struggled in the rotation, posting a 6.88 ERA through 17 innings. If he falters Tuesday, there's a chance McGowan could start in his place the next time through the rotation.
Stroman has a 2.18 ERA in 20 2/3 innings at Triple-A.
