Episode Details

Slade Cecconi, acquired from Arizona in December, showcased his improved skills in a recent game, striking out six batters with his new go-to pitch, the cutter. Cecconi, who had a 4.30 ERA last season, has been impressive this spring with a 2.13 ERA and 14 strikeouts in 12.2 innings. Despite his success, Cecconi has ditched the changeup and now relies heavily on the cutter, which he finds effective against both righties and lefties. Meanwhile, utility man Daniel Schneemann is sidelined with an ankle injury. Several players returned from the World Baseball Classic, including Travis Bazzana, Logan Allen, and pitching coach Brad Goldberg. Bo Naylor and other players are still competing in the tournament. Hunter Gaddis is recovering from a sore forearm, while Gavin Williams hit 97 mph in a minor league game.
