Blue Jays put Dylan Cease on the IL shortly after being eliminated from the playoff race
The Toronto Blue Jays have placed starting pitcher Dylan Cease on the 15-day injured list due to shoulder inflammation, effectively ending his 2026 season. This decision came shortly after the Blue Jays' elimination from playoff contention. The move occurred between the games of Wednesday’s doubleheader in Baltimore. Cease, who had a 2.40 ERA this season, made 29 starts for the Blue Jays before his final start on Friday.
During that game, he walked six batters and was removed in the third inning. Cease signed a $210 million, seven-year contract with Toronto after his seven seasons with the Chicago White Sox and San Diego Padres.
