made his final spring training start today and got shelled by what looks to be the Mets opening day lineup. It looked like some terrible fastball command had him throwing meatballs high in the zone, he finished after 2.2 innings giving up 8 hits, 5 runs, 2 walks, and 3 strikeouts. [...]
It’s March 30th and the Major League regular season has technically already started. Teams are making their final cuts and most roster competitions are winding down. Yet in the Bronx (Tampa, rather) much is still up in the air. The bullpen is not settled and neither is the bench. Cesar Cabral and Clay Rapada
