Dylan Cease doesn’t need to paint the corner when he’s pitching to opposing hitters because his arsenal can be so lethal that he often goes right at the hitter.

An eclectic type since he joined the Blue Jays in free agency this past off-season, the right-hander is known for dabbling in art.

In fact, he gifted manager John Schneider one of his works earlier in the season that is displayed in the skipper’s office at Rogers Centre.

To reciprocate the gesture, while also informing Cease of his start in Tuesday night’s all-star game for the American League team, Schneider presented Cease with the club’s own unique version of a painting — a loose description that is — conceived by staff.

Cease was genuinely surprised and also appreciative of a large custom whiteboard painting.

As the skipper would say, the special art was a thank you for a painting Cease had previously gifted Schneider.

The painting’s reveal served as the backdrop for Schneider naming Cease the all-star starter.

How great has Dylan Cease been?

In his last start heading into the break, Cease took a no-hit bid into the ninth inning in San Francisco against the Giants, who spoiled the no-no on a leadoff single driven up the middle.

When the club signed Cease to a seven-year deal worth $210 million US, the pitcher had agreed to give Schneider one of his paintings.

The makeshift painting Schneider gifted Cease isn’t likely to be seen anytime soon at the Louvre or any other museum for that matter, but it was nonetheless a unique way to bring attention to Cease’s all-star start.

The gesture was also a way to deflect attention, at least for a moment, from a lost series in San Diego as the Jays fell to the AL East basement.

“We’ll see a lot about ourselves when the break’s over,” Schneider told reporters following his team’s 5-4 loss in the series rubber match.
