I don't think Strider will go vs the Philthies. I expect he'll make his 1st start vs the Blue Jays.

Definitely an upgrade over Soler

I think we'd be better off going Sale Lopez Holmes Smith-Shawver Schwellenbach That way we get our top 3 vs LA skip them vs Miami and have them on extra rest vs Philly

I think Anderson can be useful if managed properly. His starts need to be against teams with weaker lineups whenever possible.

Rangers have released Jesse Chavez

I really like our depth in the OF and hope they keep it. I think being able to have Kelenic and De La Cruz getting everyday reps throughout the year instead of rotting on the bench will help us in the long run. They'll provide depth in the event of an OF/1B/DH injury

I could see Anderson being traded at the first available opportunity but with all the questions surrounding our rotation I can see the value of him eating innings for us against lower quality or leverage teams and pitching out of the pen in blowouts.

That's the thing. The likely outcome is he doesn't hit or field as well as Arcia in the regular season. Allen is having a good ST because he's hitting a lot of singles. If he goes back to hitting .200 in the regular season he hasn't shown the power or on base skills to overcome that.

OAA had him at +9 in 2022 +1 in 2023 and -1 in 2024

His defense has regressed significantly since he was called up. His bat has always been anemic. I feel pretty confident he won't be hitting .400 in the regular season.

Fair

No. We've invested a lot into him and we should give him every opportunity to pay off. He can spend time in AAA this year to work on things if needed.

Bone bruise for Profar. He's hopeful for opening day.

Albies is struggling this spring and White is competing for a spot. Maybe Snit just wanted to get the 2B spot an extra PA.

That's a really risky bet to take. Soroka could easily fall apart at any moment

How are Eli and Cairo looking out in the field?

I don't think there's a need to worry about his clock but there's no need to need to burn it needlessly. If there are MLB ABs available for Kelenic he should definitely be up. We made a large investment in Kelenic. We should try and make the most of it.
