Description
The Toronto Blue Jays have signed Dylan Cease to a five-year, $210 million contract, sparking debate among fans. Cease, a right-handed pitcher, has a 65-58 record with a 3.88 ERA in 188 starts and 16.7 WAR. He had a breakout year in 2022 with a 2.20 ERA, finishing second in Cy Young voting. However, concerns about his age and workload have led to skepticism about the deal. Cease is known for his durability, making 32 or 33 starts in each of the last five full seasons. He relies on his 97 mph fastball and slider, but may need to incorporate more secondary pitches as he ages. Projections suggest hell make 32 starts, throw 185 innings, and have a 3.61 ERA next year.
