It crossed my mind but I'm not a doctor, and I wonder if maybe pitchers don't want to take the risk.

The white papers on PRP said that they did follow-up imaging and in the cases where the players returned to play without surgical treatment, the follow-up MRI showed a repaired UCL, and in some cases the UCL actually grew back stronger/thicker.

I thought that would be out in most parks, but Statcast says that's only out in 5 parks.

Remember when we were worried that Gunnar was going to regress?

Avengers? The as-yet-unannounced Fortnite movie?

There's a little concern here. We're 4th in the majors in chase rate at 30% and 7th in swing rate. In particular, Adley has had a rough few weeks in terms of chasing, and he's dropped significantly in that regard compared to 2023. It's early so it's tough to say whether it's cause for major concern, but it's worth keeping an eye on. That being said, why waste time walking to first when home runs do the trick?

can you elaborate?

I had minimal faith that O'Hearn would stick as a full time player this year, but holy crap he keeps hitting. He's not exactly getting shortchanged either.

Send him down!!

Will the Sprinkler become the next viral dance move?

maybe. He needs to watch Gunnar throw. he just winged one to Cano there on the DP. These guys are pros, they can take a zinger.

can't really complain about that hit. He got him out in front and swinging at his shoetops and still managed to hit a line drive.

Can Holliday stop throwing lollipops to first? That was a little too close to comfort.

Cowser trading his batting helmet for a sombrero.

I don't think so (I write as he gives up a 2-run double.) He's still got the same surgical precision with his sinker. If anything I think he misses a little too much in the zone, but his movement is good enough to make it work. I wish he'd miss out of the zone instead of in it, he gives up some loud batted balls when he misses in the zone. He needs to figure out how to make that slider work or drop it though. It's basically a waste pitch.
