Cessa will start Sunday's game against Jharel Cotton and the A's, Leonardo Coelho of Sportsnet 960 reports.

EDGE Analysis

He posted a 4.15 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 47:22 K:BB in 65 innings at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre this season, and boasts a 4.01 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 35 strikeouts in 51.2 innings over nine career starts in the big leagues. CC Sabathia is on the 10-day DL with a Grade 2 hamstring strain, and should reclaim his rotation spot once healthy, so Cessa's time in the big-league rotation is likely to be limited.
