Dodgers reliever Tommy Kahnle has mi sed the vast majority of the time he's been under contract with L.A., who signed him prior to the 2021 season knowing he was recovering from Tommy John surgery.The idea for Los Angeles was to sign Kahnle to a two-year deal, locking him in for a full season in 2022 once he was fully recovered.
Joe Pavelski Jersey That idea hasn't gone exactly according to plan, with Kahnle having two separate extended trips to the injured list this season. He didn't pitch for the Dodgers until May 1, and two weeks later he was back on the IL with forearm tightne s.Kahnle was e sentially

Gleyber Torres committed his fifth error of the spring on Tuesday, bobbling another ball that was ruled a hit. With five errors in
Jesse Barfield Jersey Grapefruit League play thus far tied for the most in all of baseball is the 23-year-old not ready for a full-time role at shortstop?When Didi Gregorius departed this offseason via free agency, after five seasons as the Yankees' starting shortstop, filling the void that he left behind defensively was set to be a seamle s transition.Although the majority of his second big-league season was spent at second base, Torres made 77 appearances at shortstop in 2019 (just three fewer than Gregorius, who spent half the season recovering from Tommy John surgery). With DJ LeMahieu willing and able to settle in at second base, Torres appeared to be the no-brainer replacement.That's brings us to Tuesday a 4-2 lo s to the Blue Jays. His defensive performance in the first two frames at George M. Steinbrenner Field was indicative of his entire Spring Training on that side of the ball so far.In the top of
Dalton Pompey Jersey the first, with Gerrit Cole on the mound, Torres ranged to his left on a hard-hit one-hopperup the middle. He made it to the spot, extending his left arm to get his glove on it, but the ball popped out of his mitt allowing Randal Grichuk to reach without a throw. The play was eventually scored as an infield single.One inning later, on a routine ground ball off the bat of Teoscar Hernandez, Torres mi sed his target. His throw acro s the diamond to Luke Voit was high, forcing the 6-foot-3 first baseman to jump up. The errant to s pulled him off the bag as Hernandez sprinted past safely.Bad games happen. In fact, that's the beauty of baseball acro s a 162-game season, a defender could have several multi-error games and still win a Gold Glove Award. Taking over a position as e sential as shortstop, however, is a monumental task Torres' struggles this early in the year are unsurprisingly cause for concern.Tuesday marked the 23-year-old's 10th appearance at shortstop this spring. In 56 innings and on 23 total chances he's made five errors. Wynston Sawyer, a catcher who was rea signed to minor-league camp last week, is the only other Yankees player to commit more than one error this spring still three fewer than Torres.In 2019, despite glimpses of greatne s and plenty of potential, Torres' cumulative defensive production was nothing to write home about. Under (outs above average) factoring in the number of plays made by a defender and the difficulty of them Torres finished tied for
Curtis Granderson Jersey the eighth-worst output (minus-7 OAA).Scroll to ContinueHis double-play partner LeMahieu posted a plus-6 rate (tied for 22nd in baseball) for his stellar performance at second base. Torres, on the other hand, was ranked 129th.Let's take a step back for a moment and acknowledge that for Torres, these errors haven't been egregious mistakes. If Torres didn't have so much range, he wouldn't have gotten to the ball in the first inning on Tuesday. His smooth hands secured the routine grounder in the second frame, he just straightened up too quick rather than following through.Besides, Spring Training stats inevitably don't matter. As we've seen
Roy Halladay Jersey firsthand with players like Grapefruit League stats couldn't matter much le s.Internally, the only other infielders to appear at shortstop this spring that presently have a spot on the Yankees' 40-man roster are Thairo Estrada and Tyler Wade. , in a new rule installed by Major League Baseball, both utilitymen have a shot to start the regular season with the big-league club.As for Torres, it's not time to panic just yet. Adjusting to a new position is a task that takes time
Roberto Alomar Jersey . It's not like Torres has never played there before anyway instead, he is back to the position he grew up playing."I'm back at my position, I feel more comfortable," Torres said back in early-February when for his devotion to helping the community. "I don't feel pre sure in anything, just want to play my game and play to win games."At the moment, wins and lo ses don't count. In a shade over two weeks, however, errors will begin to be impactful for a club with lofty expectations. Torres has some time to figure this out, but the clock is ticking.

The 2022 offseason is critical for the Kansas City Royals not only at the major league level, but the club has some things to sort out in its minor league ranks as well. Some of those decisions have already been made, as a group of nine players headlined by outfield prospect Seuly Matias has elected free agency. first had the

That year, he clubbed a whopping 31 home runs in just 94 games in Cla s-A ball and posted a scorching 138 wRC+ while flashing his immense raw power. At one point, the
Tom Seaver Jersey future appeared to be extremely bright for him.Despite having a couple of respectable outputs at High-A and Double-A in 2021, though, Matias slashed .225/.330/.424 in 99 games with the Northwest Arkansas Naturals in 2022 and saw his wRC+ decline to 92 after being 100 at the same stop the year prior. Now 24 years old, Matias will take his power and prospect profiles to the open market.

The Indians up and down play continued Monday night at Progre sive Field, as the Chicago White Sox plundered starter Trevor Bauer and best the Tribe with ease 9-1. If you're counting at home, the Indians since beating the Mariners in the second game of their three-game set have been outscored 19-1 in the last two games. Bauer didn't have it from the start, giving up a two-run homer to Yoan Moncada to give the Sox a lead they would never look back on. The early lead saw the Sox build a 5-0 lead after their half of the fifth, and while the Indians responded with a single run, they put the game away with three runs in the 6th. Bauer at least gave the Indians five innings to not have to blow up their pen like
Brian McCann Jersey they did with Carlos Carrasco on Sunday. He threw 88 pitches, 57 of which were strikes. The two teams will do it again at 6:10pm Tuesday as they will play four games before the Indians head back on the road.1. Bauer Bad from the Start It took two batters to see that Trevor
Jimmy Wynn Jersey Bauer did not have his best stuff, allowing a two-run homer to Yoan Moncada to open the scoring at 2-0 Sox. Chicago scored single runs in the third, fourth and fifth before the Indians even pushed a single run acro s the plate. "Right from the get go I thought his stuff was fine," Indians manager Terry Francona said. "I just thought he caught too much of the plate at times, they made him pay for it." His pitches just didn't have the same movement as usual, and leaving balls over the plate is a sure fire way to get beat up, and Bauer did in this one. "I actually thought I was better tonight than I had been recently," Bauer said. "Sometimes you have to take two steps backward to go forward, definitely tonight was a step backward."Scroll to Continue Bauer had been coming off two outings in which he threw 15 innings allowing just five runs in those two outings. This night he just didn't have it. "They beat me for sure, but I thought it was a better showing of me having better command in the zone. They were aggre sive teams' had not been aggre sive against me recently," Bauer said. 2. Nova Impre sive Against the Tribe Ivan Nova moves to 1-1 with a 1.35
Yuli Gurriel Jersey ERA against the Indians and New York Yankees, but has been terrible against everyone else. Against the Indians Nova allowed a run on eight hits over seven innings, walking one and striking out five throwing 104 pitches on the night. His fastball control was very good, and he was aggre sive and didn't make many mistakes. He did allow some traffic on the bases, but when the Indians needed a big hit, Nova bore down and got a little something extra to get out of
Hector Rondon Jersey the jams. "When he got into a hitter's count, he would throw something off-speed, we've got to earn those fastballs," Francona said. With the win Nova moves to 1-3 on the season, hit ERA is still over seven, but against the Yanks and Indians he's been about as good as any one pitcher in baseball. 3. Let the Lineup Tinkering Begin The Indians lineup has seen a lot of shifting, but now over 40 games into 2019, the club has got to determine what spot hitters should be hitting in. Frankie Lindor has earned the right to leadoff, but after that it's been anyone's gue s as to where players should hit to hopefully help this team start hitting. Jason Kipnis, Jose Ramirez, Carlos Santana, Carlos Gonzalez, Jake Bauers, Tyler Naquin, Roberto Perez. Other than
Roy Oswalt Jersey Santana none of these players are doing enough at the plate to warrant complaining about where they hit. A good offense usually has 2-4 hitters that are carrying the team, but for the Indians they just have not seen that on a consistent basis this season. It's sounding more and more like Francona and Brad Mills and the staff will keep looking to put a competitive offense on the field, as this club has just stumbled and bumbled at the plate pretty much since the opener in Minnesota.
