Expand It isn't confirmed, as it's not something the team can really announce while he still has a scheduled start for Charlotte, but they also have done a pretty bad job at keeping it a secret Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raBBit Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 I feel like Cease could have one more start in Charlotte after this but it cannot be long. What else does he have to prove. He has an era thats less than half of the rest of the rotation mainstays at AAA lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard maybe after the all-star break but nothing concrete. Are we past the super 2 deadline at this point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to imagine adjusting a 3.26 ERA in that environment would yield some pretty funny results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jose Abreu Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 If they give him one more start in AAA, he'd have to debut against the Yankees or Cubs, which would go against their usual philosophy for pitching debuts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
