Dylan Cease Set for Bullpen Saturday, Blue Jays Await Key Rotation Reinforcement
Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Dylan Cease (hamstring) is expected to throw a bullpen session Saturday as he continues his recovery from a left hamstring strain. Cease has progressed through a throwing program and is now set to throw approximately 25 to 30 pitches. The next step in his recovery will be facing hitters in live bullpen sessions, although a return date has not yet been established. Before the injury, Cease was enjoying an outstanding first season in Toronto, posting a 3.05 ERA and 1.21 WHIP across 11 starts. The 30-year-old also leads the American League with 92 strikeouts in 62 innings, showcasing some of the best swing-and-miss stuff of his career. His absence has been significant for the Blue Jays, but his recovery appears to be moving in the right direction.
