Summary
Toronto’s baseball stars are making waves at the upcoming MLB All-Star Game, even though it’s being held in Philly. With Vladimir Guerrero Jr. sidelined for recovery, the Blue Jays are sending infielder Ernie Clement and pitchers Louis Varland and Dylan Cease. But the real spotlight? Dylan Cease — just 30 — is set to start for the American League, becoming only the fourth Blue Jays pitcher ever to earn that honor, joining Roy Halladay, David Wells, and Dave Stieb. It’s his first All-Star nod, and he’s earned it with a stellar 2.56 ERA and 148 strikeouts in 17 starts. Blue Jays manager John Schneider, who’s also managing the AL team, personally broke the news to Cease in front of the whole squad — a moment that cements Cease’s rise as a true franchise cornerstone.
