Listen "What Dylan Cease Brings + What's Next for the Blue Jays?"
Episode Synopsis
Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker are back for an offseason edition as the Toronto Blue Jays have reportedly signed starting pitcher Dylan Cease to a 7-year, $210 million contract. They share their reactions to the move, what Cease can bring to Toronto's rotation, and what comes next on the Jays' list of offseason priorities. Sportsnet insider Shi Davidi (6:55) shares his thoughts on the signing, its impact on the team's plans moving forward, and what the rotation might look like with José Berríos and Louis Varland both competing for the 5th spot. Later, ESPN MLB insider Jeff Passan stops by (30:32) to discuss the timing of Cease's signing, the terms of the deal, and which position the Jays should target —by trade or signing— next. Finally, Passan looks at Bo Bichette's market and how he's valued as a free agent.The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
