Strong side platoon watch Isaac Paredes PT? Just 1 of 3 vs RHP Merrifield not a everyday player early on. Only 1 o f 3 vs rhp Luis Garcis leading off vs RHP IS a thing. Graham ashcraft season Ashcraft 3 pitch mix (at least 11%) but heavy cutter/slider usage +1.9 on slider and added 2in of horizontal break -1.2 mph on cutter MacKenzie Gore good outing M. Gore velo up on all secondaries and posted a 32% CSW% vs Braves. Impressive. This is with 63% fastball usage with FB sitting 94.7 mph on the day. In line with last year. Tanner Houck new cutter T. Houck velo down across the board. Yuck. Did feature a new cutter that he averaged around 90 mph on and threw it 27% of the time (2nd most of any pitch) A 40% CSW% - not too shabby Springs is amazing and featured a new sweeper. Springs is amazing and featured a new sweeper that he threw 12% of the time. Got a 40% CSW on it and a 41% CSW overall. Just another weapon for the budding star. Drew Rasmussen is interesting (tweet) Carlos Estevez sweeper? Carlos Estevez velo dipped yesterday-1.9 on 4-seam -2.3 on slider Ryan Weathers watchlist Musgrove returning. Could be odd man out +1.8 mph on 4-seam but lost movement. Could be an issue if it is too straight. 1.6 on sweeper but 5 inches added to vert. Break. And 2 inches to horizontal break. Had a 40% whiff rate. I want to see him throw more secondaries. Chapman big velo spike Kolten Wong and Jarred Kelenic sat 2 straight vs LHP Names to stash in deeper leagues: Senzel/ Votto/ Kirilloff Deep league note: Zack McKinstry getting strong side run with J. Schoop getting weak side. Braxton Garrett is an add M. Kepler DTD - next man up? E. Sosa strong spring and carrying it over. Can the PT be there? INSTANT REACTION to Eloy Jimenez injury and the potential fallout of the newly available playing time. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Opening Day has come and gone. Here are the 10 biggest takeaways of the day for me. Join me as I recap the big takeaways and answer live listener questions along the way. These all require monitoring moving forward so do not take it as gospel. We have a long season ahead of us and this is just the beginning. Let's get into it. These videos and live streams will take place all season long. Players and topics Discussed: - 5x closers “confirmed” in Reynaldo Lopez, Dany Jimenez, Jose Leclerc, David Roberston and Michael Fulmer - Note for A’s: Trevor May down 1.8 on both the 4-seam and the slider. - 2x career-best max EV from Daulton Varsho and Brendan Donovan - Logan Webb could take a step forward - Zac Gallen and Shane Bieber velo concerns - Don’t sleep on Jose Siri. Siri hit a 110.5 mph HR. There is pop there to go with the speed. Just a matter of putting it all together. - White Sox with Oscar Colas sitting vs LHP (but pinch hitting and Oscar Colas hit a 109.4 mph single tonight. Tied for the 3rd hardest hit ball of the game. The power production will come) - Guardians with Will Benson starting over O. Gonzalez - Spencer Torkelson carried over hitting the ball hard but onto the ground. Just something of interest if he can elevate the ball more moving forward. - Masahiro Tanaka also had 2 batted balls over 100 mph - will it turn into game power?

Offseason talk to help keep pressure off him? Batting 9th - Albies and Harris seem poised bat 5-7 with Olson manning the 2 spot Chicago White Sox - Andrew Benintendi and Luis Robert might swap spot but ultimately this looks very likely to be the OD lineup - What does this mean for Colas? Los Angeles Angels - Luis Rengifo on the outside looking in? Splits and defense are rough. Are we sure he enters the year as an every day player? An injury will occur and thus a path will open but I am not sold (at the moment) he’s got an everyday spot - New approach from Brandon Donavon of the St. Louis Cardinals Cubs 3B spot - 5 games and morel has yet to start any at 3B. Is he that much or a sure thing or more getting primed for a utility spot. After a strong start last season, the K’s were an issue and playing time was inconsistent. He has the tools but will that be enough to carry him? Some pitcher notes MacKenzie Gore of the Washington Nationals has his velocity is back up to where it was before injury set in We saw Texas Rangers pitcher Nathan Eovaldi pumping 98 mph. He’s healthy for the moment David Bednar of the Pittsburgh Pirates velocity is down. Could simply be ramping up. Can’t overreact but requires attention Learn more about your ad choices.
