Outfield
1.Tommy Edman drops
2.Wyatt Langford has to make the Ranger's opening-day lineup, doesn’t he?
3.Parker Meadows looks like a legitimate ROY candidate.
4.Ceddanne Rafael has to break camp in Boston?
5.Lawrence Butler having a good Spring and right now has to move up from his current #140 ranking.
Starting Pitching
1.The following in my Top-30 in order are all hurt and likely to start the year on the IL.

Garrett Cole
Kevin Gausman
Kodai Senga
Eury Perez
Kyle Bradish
Justin Verlander
In addition both Blake Snell and Jordan Montgomery haven’t signed.

Other injuries
Gavin Williams #41
Braxton Garret #43
Lucas Giolito #61
Alek Manoah #104

•On a positive note Shane Bieber has looked great and needs to move up. Luis Severino has had a very good Spring as well.

•Casey Mize needs to move up. A.J. Puk at #130 looks poised to start the year in the rotation. The only healthy starter in Miami that was projected to be in the rotation is Jesus Luzardo???

•Paul Skenes looks to be ready. The Pirates aren’t.

I returned to my 2023 SP Rankings, and 18 of the top 50 are currently hurt. One is suspended, and two are unsigned. Only 3 of the Top-10 starters heading into 2023 will start the ’24 campaign.

Relief Pitching

The loss of Devin Williams has moved the Brewers pen from the #1 slot to a bottom five ranking.
