Blue Jays' Dylan Cease and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Leave Game Against Pirates
Cease allowed 2 runs in 4 2/3 innings, and Toronto said Guerrero left after a pitch struck his right elbow.
- On Sunday, Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Dylan Cease left the game against the Pittsburgh Pirates in the fifth inning with an apparent injury, followed by slugger Vladimir Guerrero Jr. exiting after being hit on the right elbow by a pitch.
- The Blue Jays currently have 13 players on the injured list, including starting pitchers Shane Bieber, Jose Berrios, Bowden Francis, Cody Ponce, and Max Scherzer, compounding roster challenges during a critical stretch.
- X-Rays performed on Guerrero's elbow returned negative for any fractures or breaks. Lenyn Sosa replaced him at first base, while left-hander Mason Fluharty relieved Cease on the mound.
- The Blue Jays remain 25-27 and tied for the final Wild Card spot. Manager John Schneider said after Saturday, "We are being more attentive to some things, whether it's on the bases or defensively."
- Valued for his reliability, Cease signed a $210 million, seven-year contract last December and has made at least 30 starts in each of the past five seasons, providing stability to the rotation.
