"It's over"; "Cam Schlittler would never" - Fans dismiss Dylan Cease's Cy Young chances after tough outing vs Rangers

  • On Friday, the Texas Rangers defeated the Toronto Blue Jays 7-1 in Arlington, dropping Toronto to 76-78 on the season while the Rangers moved past them in the standings.
  • Blue Jays ace Dylan Cease struggled through 2.2 innings, allowing four runs and six walks as his fastball velocity dropped to 93-94 mph, down from his typical 97-98 mph.
  • Defensive errors, including a misplay by Ernie Clement attempting to get a runner at third base, resulted in only one earned run of the four allowed. The bullpen then covered the final 5 1/3 innings.
  • The loss leaves Toronto two games behind the Chicago White Sox for the final American League wild card spot while also trailing the Rangers, making every remaining game critical.
  • Manager John Schneider is counting on starter Jose Soriano to provide extended length in Saturday's game against Texas to help save the taxed bullpen. The Blue Jays need every win to keep playoff hopes alive.
