""They've proven that they have championship-caliber players and obviously a good process. That was probably the number one thing,""
""And then from there, it was also how would they help me maximize and develop and basically reach my potential more often? That was important to me. That was probably the second-biggest consideration.""
""Over time as we went through some down years in the time that Mark and I were there, we poured into the resources that help players improve,""
""As that started to bubble up into wins, we then poured more money into resources around free agency and investing in players more long-term in a significant way.""
Dylan Cease officially joined the Toronto Blue Jays on a seven-year, $210 million contract and expressed strong optimism about his future with the team. He cited the club's championship-caliber players and effective organizational process as primary reasons for signing, and emphasized the team's ability to help him maximize development and reach his potential. Toronto executives Ross Atkins and Mark Shapiro invested in player-improvement resources during down years, then increased spending on free agency and long-term player investments as wins followed. Cease praised the Blue Jays' winning culture and stated his own goal of becoming great while pursuing postseason success.
