Thanks LM.
Hassell must still be injured.
The wow I see on the AA roster is Frizzell skipping A+.
In a sense, Rutledge is also skipping A+, since he spent all of last season at A after not succeeding at A+ in 2021. The Nats really need for this to work. Color me skeptical.
thought we would see Theophile here but not disappointing to let him regain a little confidence repeating A+. his results there were not awe inspiring
I still like Jose Sanchez though he faded badly last year.
Baseball America had a podcast the other day that was heavily Nats farm. There was also an interview with James Wood.
Wherever you get your podcasts.
Did that Sens list include guys on the DL or XST
One notices Juan Hillmsn
Nick Shumpert Blake Rutherford absent .
There were no names under the injured list.
Maybe second thoughts about JDL like Theo bumping up in April to AA
It’s a long season I bet Hanrahan sees 3 to five arms off Wilmington 22 staff by June
will be interesting to see Parker’s season. though Joel was never a control specialist when he got his BB/9 under three he was an all-star
Saenz Knowles Alvarez and Theo later to AA?
Cronin’s outing was mostly off speed pitches and not particularly sharp. they were playing in ski masks I’ll wait to see what he’s got once real baseball weather arrives. the few times he got his fastball up where he likes it he got some swings and misses.
Way to go BOSSman catching up on the XST board list.some thump missing off Sens
