	Dylan Cease was removed from Sunday's game with mild left hamstring discomfort. Ari Koslow Sun, May 24th	Gray last appeared in a big-league game in April 2024 and missed most of the past two seasons following Tommy John surgery. A flexor strain at the end of spring training prevented him from joining the Opening Day rotation, and he is not eligible to come off the 60-day IL until late May. Bruno Mulé Mon, Apr 13th
	Dylan Cease was removed from his start early on Sunday against the Pirates. Ari Koslow Sun, May 24th	The Nationals have placed right-hander Josiah Gray on the 60-day injured list due to a right flexor strain. Brenton Kemp Tue, Mar 24th
Notes
	Dylan Cease signed a seven-year, $210 million contract with the Blue Jays in November, parlaying his steady strikeout rate numbers and artificially inflated ERA in 2025 into security with the 2025 runners-up. In his age-29 season, Cease was snakebit by a .320 BABIP, ballooning his ERA to 4.55 with an xERA of 3.46. The important stat to know is his 29.8% K-rate and five consecutive years of 200+ strikeouts. If you can absorb a bit of a WHIP hit (career 1.26), the counting stats are there for the taking.
