injury information this year which goes all the way back to spring training when it was yeah Shane Bieber's just a week or two behind everyone else and they missed the first half of the season and yeah Trey Savage yeah he just needs like a few extra days missed the first month of the season voice-verified

Yes, we could trace Barrios back to last year when he was pitching through elbow discomfort in much the same way that Cease was pitching through shoulder discomfort this year. voice-verified

And it wasn't communicated to us and it wasn't brought to light. voice-verified

And look, teams don't have to tell us anything. voice-verified

And players are protected under HIPAA laws. voice-verified

And that's like the way that things should be done. voice-verified

I'm not arguing with that. voice-verified

is all to say that when there are indicators there in the data that we're seeing and when there are trends there uh they're they're very often commonly is a good reason for that voice-verified

And when you look at that stretch of starts for cease around the Boston one that he mentioned was when he really started to experience the shoulder fatigue, the shoulder discomfort, the achiness, however we're describing it, there was a run of starts there. voice-verified

where it was 110 pitches, 108 pitches, 107, 118, 101, 120, and an all-star game mixed in the middle of that that he started, which is only an inning, but a lot of travel and a lot of stress, a lot of demands, probably not great sleep, probably not great recovery on top of the stress and travel, and the... voice-verified

demands you put on your body throughout the course of a regular big league season and I want to just before I say about what I'm about to say I just want to be clear it's entirely possible that Dylan Cease would have experienced this shoulder issue regardless of how cautious the Blue Jays were with him or how they had rolled out his season so we don't know that this would have made things any better or not but voice-verified

I think the Blue Jays shouldn't have pushed him as hard as they did during that stretch. voice-verified

And I remember at the time coming on this podcast and us talking about it. voice-verified

and talking about how like, wow, like this, like the amount that they're asking of this guy is a lot, particularly when you're talking about someone as stuff dependent as him. voice-verified

I think that, and this is the Blue Jays, this is Cease, this is Schneider, this is Pete, this is the support staff, everyone. voice-verified

I think they did not pay still in Cease's season very well. voice-verified

And I think you're seeing that right now with the shoulder issue, with him hitting a wall. voice-verified

This would be disastrous if we were talking about a playoff team right now. voice-verified

Because the Blue Jays ideally would like to be playing for about five more weeks and to have Cease having like a Gaussman-esque postseason. voice-verified

And like Gaussman last postseason had like five starts. voice-verified
