News
	Dylan Cease will start for the American League in the All-Star game. Ari Koslow Sun, Jul 12th	Kumar Rocker allowed seven earned runs on eight hits and two walks while striking out six over 5 2/3 innings in Saturday's loss to the Astros. Chris Schommer Sun, Jul 12th
	Blue Jays right-hander Dylan Cease pitched eight innings of shutout ball, allowing just one hit and three walks while striking out 11 in a win over the Giants on Wednesday. Brenton Kemp Thu, Jul 9th	Kumar Rocker took the loss Sunday against the Tigers after allowing three runs on five hits and one walk over 4.1 innings. He struck out four. Most of the damage came on a two-run homer by Riley Greene in the fourth inning, and Rocker exited in the fifth after allowing a single. Bruno Mulé Mon, Jul 6th
	Blue Jays right-hander Dylan Cease pitched seven shutout innings while striking out nine to earn the win over the Mariners on Friday. Brenton Kemp Sat, Jul 4th	Rangers right-hander Kumar Rocker will start Sunday's series finale against the Tigers. Brenton Kemp Sat, Jul 4th
	Dylan Cease allowed four earned runs on four hits and five walks while striking out 10 over 4 2/3 innings in Saturday's loss to the Rangers. Chris Schommer Sun, Jun 28th	Kumar Rocker did not factor into the decision Sunday against the Blue Jays after allowing four hits and one walk over six scoreless innings. He struck out five while recording his fourth quality start of the season. Bruno Mulé Mon, Jun 29th
	Blue Jays right-hander Dylan Cease allowed two earned runs with four walks against eight strikeouts in a no-decision against the Astros on Monday. Brenton Kemp Tue, Jun 23rd	Kumar Rocker allowed two runs on five hits over five innings Monday against the Marlins while recording a career-high nine strikeouts. Working behind opener Tyler Alexander, Rocker needed just 76 pitches to complete five frames and generated 20 swinging strikes with a 46 percent CSW. He also benefited from a key defensive play in the sixth inning when Ezequiel Duran cut down Xavier Edwards at the plate to end the frame. Bruno Mulé Tue, Jun 23rd
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.
