Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Dylan Cease will miss his next start due to shoulder fatigue, manager John Schneider announced on Sunday. Cease, who is the AL Cy Young candidate, underwent an MRI on Saturday and the team is awaiting the results to determine his next steps. Despite struggling through September with control issues and a significant drop in velocity, Cease remains a vital component of the Blue Jays' rotation with a 2.40 ERA and 1.10 WHIP.
The loss of Cease is a significant blow to the team's already weakened rotation as they fight for the final AL wild-card berth. The Blue Jays will look to salvage one game against the Texas Rangers in the series finale on Sunday.
