Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Dylan Cease is named to start the American League at the 2026 MLB All-Star Game. Multiple outlets report that Blue Jays management selected Cease after a strong first half of the season and that he will receive the ball to open AL play. The announcement places Cease among a small group of Blue Jays pitchers to earn the honor: Dave Stieb (1982, 1983) and Roy Halladay (2009) are the other Toronto pitchers previously selected as All-Star starters. Reports also note that Cease is recognized for his standout performance during the half-season leading up to the break. The selection means Cease becomes the third Blue Jays pitcher in franchise history to be chosen to start an All-Star Game, and he will represent Toronto as the AL’s designated starter. Sources agree on the key details of the decision and Cease’s franchise milestone, while providing similar context about his season performance and the company he keeps among notable Blue Jays All-Star starters.
