Here are some take-aways from spring training practice today.

1) Nice to see Oneill Cruz report early. Not everyone does that.

2) Konnor Griffin was hitting some line drives over the fence in batting practice. His throws from short to first was like a cannon. Something special.

3) Matt Gorski was taking some practice at first base. Peguero a little practice at third, but mostly at short. Oneill Cruz practiced with the outfielders, but someone said he still took some grounders at short before I got there.

4) Endy Rodriguez was hitting some ropes in batting practice. He looked healthy.

- If anyone has anything specific you want me to look for tomorrow, let me know.

ready to be hurt again, but the updated bat tracking data has me all in on a Suwinski bounce back.

The swing metrics were nearly identical.

The only thing that changed between '23 and '24 was he got way *more* aggressive last year, and to the chagrin of every Pirate fan, that simply isn't a path to success in modern big league ball.

Start fresh and go back to his approach that worked.
