Today is the last day where all players will be in camp before many depart for the WBC and prepare for the tournament. That means we’re about to see a lot of minor league pitching taking the mound, which could lead to some interesting scores in the upcoming weeks.
On to the links.
Phillies news:
- It’s great that we have good beat writers covering the Phillies, but it’s always fun when a national reporter picks up a story, like this interview with Alec Bohm done by Ken Rosenthal ($).
- Taijuan Walker still has his good move on pickoffs. He’s getting ready to help Mexico in the WBC ($).
- Shane Victorino, the team’s center fielder from the glory days, is helping the next center fielder get ready for new glory days ($).
MLB news:
- Bruce Froemming, one of the umpires that we could probably name at any point when watching a game, passed away at the age of 86.
- Konnor Griffin is a name you’re going to hear a lot of in the next few weeks. Is he the next superstar in MLB?
- Each participant is hoping to win the WBC, but which player for each squad is going to be their “X-factor” to actually claiming victory?
