San Diego Padres right-hander Dylan Cease turned in a quality start in his team's 6-4 win over the Los Angeles Angels on Tuesday. Cease allowed two runs on five hits over 6 2/3 innings while striking out 10 and walking one, but he had to settle for a no-decision as the Padres' offense didn't come to life until after he departed. Cease has been up-and-down for the Padres this season, posting a 1-2 record, 4.60 ERA, 1.34 WHIP, and 58 strikeouts over 47 innings of work. That being said, Tuesday's start is a reminder of his fantasy upside when he's on. Cease will look to keep it going in his next start, which is scheduled to come against the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday.

Updating a previous report, San Diego Padres manager Mike Shildt said that the team is hopeful it was just a right-forearm cramp that led to right-hander Dylan Cease's (forearm) early exit from his start on Wednesday night in the Bronx against the New York Yankees. Shildt said the Padres weren't taking any chances with Cease, who appeared to be lobbying to stay in the contest. In the eventual 4-3 extra-innings loss, the 29-year-old looked the best he has all year in a no-decision, allowing just an earned run on a solo homer by former Cody Bellinger while walking two and striking out a season-high nine in 6 2/3 innings. The only hit he allowed didn't come until the seventh inning, right before he was pulled. Cease's injury doesn't appear to be too serious, but it doesn't mean he won't be in danger of missing his next start. Stay tuned for more details before Friday's series opener against the division-rival Colorado Rockies.UPDATE: Cease said he plans to make his next start, and manager Mike Shildt said he passed post-game tests from the training staff.

San Diego Padres starting pitcher Dylan Cease (undisclosed) made an early exit from Wednesday's game against the New York Yankees. Cease was cruising along and took a no-hitter into the seventh inning of Wednesday's contest. However, Cease gave up a solo home run to Cody Bellinger to break up the no-no. After that, Cease was forced to exit with a trainer due to an undisclosed injury, but he appeared to be looking at his right hand. The organization should give an update on his status, but hopefully it was only a cramp or something minor. He finished his outing throwing 6 2/3 innings, allowing one earned run on one hit, while striking out nine batters. Fantasy managers will need to check back for another update on his status. Before exiting, Cease appeared to be pleading his case to remain in the game, for what it's worth.
