Manager Buck Showalter will also do without fleet-footed Quintin Berry and infielder Alexi Casilla.

Matusz went 2-3 with a 3.48 ERA in 63 games this season. He was used mostly against left-handed batters.

McFarland was used mostly as a long reliever. He appeared in 37 games, going 4-2 with a 2.76 ERA.

The best-of-five series begins Thursday.
