3.5.26 at the Yankees
Keaschall in LF but why? Most of our prospects are outfielders. I’d rather see Emma or Gonzales out there.

2026 will be a season where we see what we’ve got, despite Tom Ps insistence on being competitive.
I’d like to see this on both sides of the ball. Let the youth play.
Agreed - my bench at this point is Caratini, Clemens, Kreidler, with Martin/Roden rotating in LF.
The guys with options can go to AAA, Outman gets the DFA, Jackson gets the DFA but hopefully passes through and is stashed at AAA for C depth.
Based on contracts and what I've seen in ST so far and hope (not a plan) Hendriks flashes some of his former closer performance.
Sands, Topa, Orze, Rogers, Banda, Altavilla and Hendriks
Battle for the last spot - Kent, Raya, Chafin, Fundy

Bobby Nightengale:
Royce Lewis was scratched from today’s lineup because of right side tightness after he ran the bases pregame.

#MNTwins injury updates:
* López surgery successful, and it was repair rather than reconstruction, very good news
* Ryan is progressing with long toss and will throw a bullpen this weekend
* Festa shut down “a couple weeks” with shoulder impingement. Had an injection. start of season in jeopardy.
Chafin and Hendricks make for colorful interviews
Gleeman:
Andrew Chafin after topping out at 87 mph today: "If I cared about velo, I wouldn't have a job anymore."
"It's just a matter of tricking the body into doing what I want it to do when I want it to do it. And it doesn't really have a choice, so it's like a mind-over-matter dance."
