Malcom Nunez hasn’t played in a couple days and he’s not in the dugout today. Wondering whether his rehab hit a snag.

Why sit Camaro against a lefty and start him the next day against a righty? Makes no sense

The best use of an OF spot the rest of this non-contending season is a platoon between Canario and Suwinski. Find out about both while looking ahead to next season.

Well to be honest, none of our options there should be in the major leagues. Sure glad our gm is sitting back and letting these scrubs get abs.

At least Canario has some semblance of power in his bat

Kelly doesn’t seem immune from the directive to cater to Phamine. He gets the LHP to increase his odds of accidentally getting an IF hit.

Watching KG and seeing the numbers he's producing, he needs to be in Altoona. His physical attributes and his baseball skills are at a much higher level than his age would predict. I wonder if this is similar to Bryce Harper, who started Pro ball about a year earlier in age, but spent one season in the minors plus a little over 20 games before being promoted to Washington.

He does seem like he could get fast tracked, but this is the Pirates.

Im not old enough to remember Mickie Mantle playing but I do remember writing an essay on him in college and KG makes me think, what if?

By far the most fun part of spring training practices for me was watching Konnor Griffin. One day he hit several line drive homers in practice. I told him after practice "I don't know if you know our owner, but you are losing a lot of baseballs". He laughed and said "It is my job to lose baseballs."
