Andy Martino: Scouts grade Soto’s as a solid average arm, 55 on 20-80 scale. OF coach Rojas thinks it plays better because of the spin he gets on his throws. The throw was professional grade but I think that play got made by Soto charging the ball and getting it off cleanly and as important, where he was positioned. Exactly... |

I saw the replay, it was also a very athletic play by Trevino. I'm not his biggest fan and I like Wells, but not sure Wells makes that play. |

Wells is much bigger than Trevino, so he would have had a decided reach advantage to attempt to make that play. |

Chris Kirschner: A few weeks ago, Oswaldo Cabrera told me how watching Juan Soto in the cage helped inspire a change in himself. So far, that change has worked.

A bad throw or a botched DP at that point in the game could've been disastrous. |

With Gleyber's injury, we should see Cabrera and Berti in the lineup tonight. I'm looking forward to that actually, as I do not remember Berti at all. Also, I would have hated to bench our hottest hitter, as you know Boone would have done if Gleyber would not have been hit by a pitch. |

Probably needs a couple days to get right again… Yep. As I believe Rizz pointed out, probably started to swell which would've made it tough to get a good grip on the ball. Also...not crazy about him in the leadoff spot, but there doesn't appear to be any options at this point. I wouldn't mess with moving Volpe or Cabrera. If Gleyber sits tonight it'll be interesting to see who hits leadoff. |
