Cease didn't factor into the decision in Saturday's 2-1 extra-inning loss to the Mariners, giving up one run on three hits and three walks over five innings while striking out five.

EDGE Analysis

The young right-hander engaged in a pitching duel with Felix Hernandez, but Cease stumbled first by serving up a solo shot to Shed Long in the fifth inning. Walks (4.4 BB/9) and homers (2.0 HR/9) continue to be issues for the 23-year-old, but his upside is undeniable if he can sharpen his command. He'll take a 6.18 ERA and 73:33 K:BB through his first 67 big-league innings into his next start Friday in Detroit.

Cease allowed one run on four hits with five walks and four strikeouts across 3.1 innings during a no-decision against the Angels on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

This was one of the 23-year-old's best outings of the year in terms of preventing hits, but it was a short one, so he settled for the no-decision. Part of the reason it was short was because he tied his season high with five walks, but none of them came around to score. Cease is 3-7 with a 6.53 ERA, 1.61 WHIP and 68 strikeouts in 62 innings this season. He will look to build off this outing at the Mariners in his next start Saturday.

Cease allowed four earned runs on four hits and two walks while striking out 11 across 6.2 innings Tuesday against the Indians. He did not factor into the decision.

EDGE Analysis

Cease dominated the Indians through six innings, punching out nine batters and allowing just two earned runs. However, he returned to the mound in the seventh frame and walked consecutive batters with two outs -- both of which ultimately came around to score. Still, he showcased his electric arsenal in the outing, generating 21 called strikes and 13 swinging strikes across 106 total pitches while also walking only two batters. Despite the encouraging outing, Cease still owns a 6.75 ERA and 1.55 WHIP across 58.2 big-league innings. He'll look to build on this positive effort in his next start, currently scheduled for Sunday against the Angels.

Cease (3-7) allowed eight runs on 10 hits and one walk while striking out three over two-plus innings and picked up the loss to Minnesota on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Cease's outing went so awry that manager Rick Renteria and a staff trainer paid him a mound visit following one particularly wild pitch, per Scott Merkin of MLB.com. His raw stuff was good -- Cease topped out at 100 mph and induced 10 swinging strikes -- but he never found a groove and departed with none out in the third after allowing back-to-back home runs. The young right-hander has had some growing pains during his introduction to MLB, but this outing was his worst by far. He'll tote a 6.92 ERA into his next start Tuesday on the road in Cleveland.

Cease (3-6) struck out nine and picked up the win in Friday's 8-3 victory over the Rangers, allowing three runs on four hits and a walk over six innings.

EDGE Analysis

It looked like the rookie was in for another shaky performance when Willie Calhoun blasted a three-run homer in the first inning, but Cease shook it off and shut Texas down after that, eventually setting a new career high in strikeouts while delivering his second quality start in nine trips to the mound in the majors. The right-hander will carry a 5.76 ERA and 50:22 K:BB through 50 innings into his next outing Thursday, at home against the Twins.

Cease (2-6) allowed five runs on seven hits and a walk over five innings Sunday, striking out six batters and taking the loss against the Angels.

EDGE Analysis

Most of the damage against Cease came via the long ball with Matt Thaiss and Kole Calhoun both taking him deep. The rookie right-hander had allowed just four runs in his previous two starts, but Sunday's outing bumped his ERA to 5.93 in his first 44 MLB innings. Cease will get a home start against Texas on Friday.

Cease (2-5) allowed four runs (two earned) on five hits with five walks and two strikeouts across six innings while taking a loss against the Astros on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

The final two runs charged to Cease came via wild pitches, one of which occurring after Cease had departed, so they were both unearned, but he's not completely free to blame because each runner who scored on those wild pitches reached base by walks. Cease has struggled with walks all season, but five free passes set a new season high. Cease owns a 5.54 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and 35 strikeouts with 20 walks in 39 innings this season. He will take the mound next at the Angels on Sunday.

Cease won't make his scheduled start Monday against the Astros, as the game as been postponed due to inclement weather.

EDGE Analysis

Following Monday's postponement, the White Sox have announced that Cease will take the hill for Game 1 of Tuesday's doubleheader. Ivan Nova is set to pitch the nightcap.

Cease (2-4) allowed two runs on seven hits with one walk and six strikeouts across five innings while earning a victory in game one of a doubleheader against the Tigers on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

This was his best outing of the year, and because of his small sample, Cease lowered his ERA almost half a run. That's the good news, but the bad news is it still sits at 6.00. While he's won two games, he's also lost four in six outings and owns a 1.55 WHIP, .275 batting average against and 33 strikeouts in 33 innings this season. Cease is scheduled to pitch again Monday at home against the Astros.

Cease (1-4) took the loss against the Mets on Thursday, giving up four runs (three earned) on seven hits over seven innings, striking out six and walking two as the White Sox fell 4-0.

EDGE Analysis

Cease pitched well in this contest, but he wound up getting saddled with his fourth straight loss as his offense was shut out by Zack Wheeler. The rookie right-hander has managed to reach the five-inning threshold in each of his five starts, but he's given up 19 earned runs over his 28 innings, leaving him with a lackluster 6.11 ERA and a 1.54 WHIP.
