Thank you, Tony.  However I want to bring something to your attention. While reading the updated original post, I noticed that Nick Vespi's first performance wasn't listed. In his Spring Training debut on February 24, he had one full inning of work, and struck out a batter and allowed no walks, for a perfect WHIP and ERA.

Thanks. I sometimes don't worry too much about every outing unless it was significant. But I have been keeping up with pitchers so I may have just missed that one.

Added the Julio Teheran signing

[Tony-OH]

Updated with Wong signing. Looks like AAA depth to me, but he's left-handed and we know Elias likes himself some left-handed hitting 2B.

[DirtyBird]

Hilliard - gone

[Tony-OH]

Updated with Sam Hilliard being DFA'd and claimed by the Rockies.

[Billy F-Face3]

Watching the box score from 2/29.... it must be pitcher experimentation day, because 3 of our top veteran pitchers just gave up home runs in short work and it's only the 4th inning. 

[Tony-OH]

Updated through leap year game.

- Mateo keeps getting SS starts but no outfield time.
- Basallo takes BP
- Yennier Cano has been put on a milk carton
- McKenna hitless while battling for a spot
- Holliday has first good game at the plate
- Burnes struggles
- Kimbrel, Coulombe and Webb all scored upon. (Bullpen not looking strong in early going)
 

[Tony-OH]

Updated through today's game.

- Tyler Wells and Bruce Zimmermann makes two scoreless inning debuts.
- Holliday starts at SS and picks up a 2B.

[Aristotelian]

Tate just pitched his second scoreless. Really good news for him.

[Tony-OH]

Updated thru 3/2.

Big day for Hays at the plate
Scoreless outings for Irvin, Teheran, Tate and Vespi
Stowers homers late

[justD]

Yesterday, 3/4, Kramer’s FB was consistently 93, fwiw. He threw a lot of breaking balls tho, I’d say fewer than  25% FB

Akin was 96-97.

O’Hearn had a nice throw in from RF to keep a runner on 3rd from attempting to score in the 1st, but then a rather weak-looking one later in the game that barely made it to the second baseman.

Not sure what the deal was with Akin last year, but if he can find his way back to what he did in 2022, that could be huge for this bullpen.
