Haders fastball is only 93...I know he's ramping up, but that seems low

Within this story is a reminder that Hunter Brown is still PPI eligible, which means the Astros will get a comp pick after the first round in 2026 if Brown finishes top-3 in MVP or Cy Young voting this season - https://t.co/GUpl0OFWWw

https://t.co/D6kophZPPH. Superstar 3B Arenado dealing with the Cards he’s dealt. “My expectation is to be here Opening Day. (That’s) until they tell me something’s going on – then I guess I will adjust. But until I hear that, I’m locked in.”

In other, Aggie-related news, Tyler Naquin is attempting the reverse-Ankiel

The Guardians are re-signing Tyler Naquin…

…as a pitcher.

Naquin, 33, was an outfielder for CLE from 2016-20 and last appeared in the majors in 2023. His last three seasons with sufficient data, he ranked in the 99th, 98th and 94th percentiles in arm strength.

D'oh! Can't believe I forgot about him. I just looked it up and didn't realize it progressed past Sugar Land. He actually made it to the bigs and had a .87 ERA in 10.1 IP with San Diego in 2014

Has anyone at the ML level gone from a field player to pitcher full time?

I know Tim Wakefield made the change in the minors.

Jacob Melton, the Astros' top outfield prospect, says his back tightness came from not monitoring his offseason workload closely enough, but he's back and playing free and easy again, as evidenced by his stolen base Thursday night. https://t.co/H0tjdep5XX via @houstonchron
