Braves GM “Highly Confident” Ronald Acuna Jr. Will Be Ready

Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. (knee) has a great chance to be in the Opening Day lineup, according to the team's general manager Alex Anthopoulos. Anthopoulos was on MLB Network Radio on Sunday morning with Jon Morosi and said he was "highly confident" that Acuna would be in the team's Opening Day lineup. The […]


German Marquez Set To Begin Throwing Bullpen Sessions This Week

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher German Marquez (elbow) is scheduled to start throwing bullpen sessions this week, according to general manager Bill Schmidt. Marquez, who underwent Tommy John surgery last season, hasn't had any bullpen sessions since his surgery. The 29-year-old veteran started just four games last season before landing on the injured list with an […]


James Wood Tearing Up Spring Training

Washington Nationals outfielder James Wood is raking through the first eight games of Grapefruit League play. The 21-year-old prospect is slashing .500/.636/1.063 with three home runs, six RBI, and one stolen base over 22 plate appearances. He's also walked six times and only struck out thrice. In his most recent contest, he hit cleanup and […]


Orioles Acquire Reliever Matt Krook From The Yankees For Cash

The Baltimore Orioles have acquired left-handed reliever Matt Krook from the New York Yankees for cash considerations. Krook was designated for assignment earlier this week by New York but it didn't take long for him to find a new home. He is 29 years old and has limited major league experience (24.75 ERA in 4 […]


Jose Quijada Transferred To 60-Day Injured List

Los Angeles Angels relief pitcher Jose Quijada (elbow) has been transferred to the 60-day injured list. The 28-year-old reliever underwent Tommy John surgery last May and will miss the majority of the 2024 season. He's got a shot to make it back late in the second half of the year but even when he does […]


Livan Soto Claimed Off Waivers By The Angels

The Los Angeles Angels have claimed infielder Livan Soto off waivers from the Baltimore Orioles. Soto was designated for assignment by the Angels last month before being claimed by the O's, who subsequently DFA'd him again. He ends up back with the Angels and will likely just serve as infield depth for the big league […]


Chris Sale Had Fully Healthy Offseason, Ready To Compete In 2024

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Chris Sale told reporters on Saturday that this is his first offseason since 2019 that he hasn't had limitations. The veteran southpaw has dealt with a ton of injuries over the last four seasons, including Tommy John surgery in 2020 and a nagging shoulder issue in 2023. As a result, he's […]


Phillies Sign Relievers Austin Brice And Ricardo Pinto

The Philadelphia Phillies have signed relief pitchers Austin Brice and Ricardo Pinto. Brice, who last pitched for the Pittsburgh Pirates in 2022, was inked to a minor league deal while Pinto was just added to the camp roster. Brice owns a career 5.12 ERA over 168 2/3 major league innings of relief and Pinto, who […]


Shohei Ohtani Not Taking Batting Practice On Sunday

Los Angeles Dodgers designated hitter Shohei Ohtani (elbow), who was scheduled to face live pitching for the first time since his offseason elbow surgery, will not take batting practice on Sunday. This was obviously an anticipated batting practice session, considering the star power of Ohtani, but manager Dave Roberts told reporters that the schedule change […]


Yariel Rodriguez Working Through A Visa Issue

Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Yariel Rodriguez is working through a visa issue and has yet to arrive at spring training. However, the issue is expected to get worked out soon and the team expects him to arrive any day. The 26-year-old Cuban native has been playing in Japan over the last three seasons and was […]


Jett Williams, Luisangel Acuna Drawing Buzz At Mets Camp

New York Mets infielders Jett Williams and Luisangel Acuna are drawing a lot of interest as Mets camp gets underway in Port Saint Lucie, Florida. Williams is the Mets' highest-rated prospect (No.45 in the Top 100) but Acuna is also considered a high-end prospect. Williams was a first-round pick back in 2022 and slashed .263/.425/.451 […]


Sean Manaea Refining His Pitch Arsenal In Spring Training

New York Mets starting pitcher Sean Manaea has been refining his pitch arsenal during spring training. The 32-year-old lefty spent the 2021 and 2022 off-seasons at Driveline Baseball in Kent, WA to work on his velocity and pitch mix. The hard work during the offseason paid off as he put together a solid 4.44 ERA […]


Tanner Scott Wins Arbitration Case Against Miami

Miami Marlins relief pitcher Tanner Scott won his arbitration case over the Miami Marlins, according to Mark Feinsand of MLB Network. There was a $550,000 delta between the two sides, with Miami wanting to pay Scott $5.15 million, and the closer wanting $5.7 million. The 29-year-old will be a free agent after this season and […]


Trevor Rogers Healthy To Begin Spring Training

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Trevor Rogers (lat, biceps) is healthy as spring training gets underway. The 26-year-old lefty was limited to just four starts and 18 innings last season due to lat and biceps injuries. He compiled a 4.00 ERA during those four starts, but he was coming off a disastrous 2022 season in which […]


A.J. Puk Being Stretched Out As Starter In Spring Training

Miami Marlins pitcher A.J. Puk is being stretched out as a starter as spring training gets underway. The lanky reliever has only worked out of the bullpen in the majors but was primarily a starter back in his college days at the University of Florida. He's yet to make a single start through his first […]


Nick Gordon Traded To The Marlins For Steven Okert

Minnesota Twins outfielder Nick Gordon has been traded to the Miami Marlins for reliever Steven Okert, according to Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic. Gordon, who just lost his arbitration hearing with the Twins, will earn $900,000 this upcoming season and is out of minor league options. He will need to earn a spot on Miami's […]


No Lingering Health Concerns for Yu Darvish, Joe Musgrove

San Diego Padres starting pitchers Yu Darvish (elbow) and Joe Musgrove (shoulder) have no lingering health concerns, according to manager Mike Shildt. The new Padres skipper shared the news with reporters on Sunday as pitchers and catchers are reporting for spring training. This is good news, as both Darvish and Musgrove dealt with season-ending injuries […]


Padres Showing Interest In Free Agent Noah Syndergaard

Free-agent starting pitcher Noah Syndergaard is garnering interest from the San Diego Padres, according to beat writer Kevin Acee. The Padres don't have much clarity or depth in their starting rotation behind incumbents Joe Musgrove and Yu Darvish, who are both coming off injuries, so targeting someone like Syndergaard makes sense. San Diego has also […]


Wandy Peralta And Luis Patino Dealing With Visa Issues

San Diego Padres relief pitchers Wandy Peralta and Luis Patino are both dealing with visa issues as pitchers and catchers are reporting for spring training. Padres manager Mike Shildt told reporters on Sunday about the visa issues for the two aforementioned arms but did not expand beyond that. It's a fairly common issue with foreign […]


Kris Bubic Slated To Return In The Middle Of The Season

Kansas City Royals starting pitcher Kris Bubic (elbow) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session next week after pitchers and catchers report to spring training. The 26-year-old southpaw underwent Tommy John surgery last April and while he won't be ready for the start of the regular season, he's targeting a return sometime in the middle […]


David Bote Gets Non-Roster Invite To Spring Training

Chicago Cubs infielder David Bote has received a non-roster invite to spring training, according to beat writer Meghan Montemurro. Bote was taken off the 40-man roster prior to the 2023 season and spent 2023 at Triple-Iowa, where he slashed .258/.361/.456 over 425 plate appearances. Bote signed a five-year, $15 million contract with the Cubs back […]


Jo Adell Has Uncertain Future With The Angels

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Jo Adell has an uncertain future after the team signed veteran Aaron Hicks to help shore up their outfield. Hicks is primed to open the year in the outfield mix along with Mike Trout, Taylor Ward, and Mickey Moniak. Adell would appear to be on the outside looking in at the […]


Cubs Have Multiple Late-Inning Options In Their Bullpen

The Chicago Cubs can employ a number of arms, depending on matchups, when it comes to closing out games in 2024, according to Jordan Bastian of MLB.com. Adbert Alzolay ran away with the closer role last season, racking up 22 saves to lead the team. Julian Merryweather served as an excellent setup man, working a […]


Akil Baddoo At Risk Of Not Making Opening Day Roster

Detroit Tigers outfielder Akil Baddoo may or may not make the team's Opening Day roster, according to Evan Woodberry of MLive. Baddoo put together a poor 2023 season, slashing .218/.310/.372 with 11 home runs, 34 RBI, and 14 stolen bases over 312 at-bats. The organization is high on Parker Meadows, who impressed with his defensive […]


Parker Meadows Has A Chance To Be Detroit's Starting Center Fielder

Detroit Tigers outfielder Parker Meadows has a shot to open the year as the team's starting center fielder. The 6-foot-5 24-year-old appeared in 37 games down the stretch for Detroit last season and slashed .232/.331/.368 with three home runs, 13 RBI, and eight stolen bases over 125 at-bats. He flashed the leather in center field […]


Heath Hembree Inks Minor-League Deal With Seattle

Veteran relief pitcher Heath Hembree has signed a minor-league contract with the Seattle Mariners. The 35-year-old righty had worked just 23 1/3 innings at the major league level over the last two seasons, compiling a poor 6.94 ERA and 1.886 WHIP in the process. He was with the Tampa Bay Rays last season, appearing in […]


Jose Cisnero Signs One-Year Deal With The Angels

Free-agent relief pitcher Jose Cisnero signed a one-year contract with the Los Angeles Angels. The veteran reliever put up a poor 5.31 ERA, 1.483 WHIP, and 70:25 K/BB over 59 1/3 innings last season as a member of the Detroit Tigers. While the ERA and WHIP leave a lot to be desired, he still put […]


Dominic Fletcher Traded To The White Sox

The Arizona Diamondbacks have traded outfielder Dominic Fletcher to the Chicago White Sox in exchange for right-handed pitching prospect Cristian Mena. The White Sox were lacking depth in their outfield the D-Backs didn't have room for Fletcher so this move makes sense. The 26-year-old outfielder flashed some good things last season in Arizona, slashing .301/.350/.441 […]


Moises Gomez Sent Outright To Triple-A Memphis

St. Louis Cardinals outfield prospect Moises Gomez has been sent outright to the Triple-A Memphis Redbirds. The Cardinals designated him for assignment back on January 29 to make room on their 40-man roster for the recently-acquired Alfonso Rivas but Gomez went unclaimed on waivers, so he will start the season at Triple-A. He smashed 30 […]


Jake Walsh Signs Minor-League Contract With The Braves

Free agent relief pitcher Jake Walsh has signed a minor league deal with the Atlanta Braves that includes an invite to spring training. Walsh is 28 years old but has very limited major league experience. He only pitched 2/2 innings last season with the St. Louis Cardinals and allowed four earned runs, so it's hard […]
