"Not expecting anything crazy."Cease had been scheduled to start Wednesday against the Baltimore Orioles. Depending on the MRI results, Schneider said Cease could still be an option for the Blue Jays' final regular-season series against the Cincinnati Reds.The Blue Jays (76-79) entered Sunday three games behind the Chicago White Sox (79-76) for the final wild card in the American League.
