Sneaky Pirates

Alexander Canario is a great fit for the Pirates.  Do you think they give him a shot at the major league level shortly?  He has major impact upside it seems based on his spring performance.

I hope so. I mean it's not like Tommy Pham is going to get them anywhere.
Possible?

The Yankees end up with a better offense despite losing Soto? Obviously three games (really two) don't mean much, but it would be funny.

Losing Soto was the big headliner but Goldschmidt is an upgrade at 1B, Chisholm over a full season could be an upgrade on Gleyber, Dominguez should be an upgrade over Verdugo, Volpe is young enough that we should expect progress over 2024. Bellinger is obviously no Soto — with Judge sliding from CF to RF, that's the swap-out — but he's in a good ballpark for his skills. Really, 3B stands out as their most likely weakness, where we could easily spot a few of them last year.

OK folks, that's enough out of me. I spilled salad dressing all over these jeans and toughed it out for another 90 minutes but it's time for something besides Oil-and-Vinegar flavored Jay. Thanks for stopping by!
