Interesting notes from Skubal here

Pretty sure all of these has QO so you'd be giving up draft capital for 1-2 years on some rather flawed players.

I know he had been giving up some HR's on his hits but that is a little surprising to me that Manning went down.

Benetti is doing March Madness so Dan Dickerson is doing play by play for Bally today.

Looks pretty close to an opening-day lineup.

Nothing crazy here but down to 34

He has had a pretty good spring...

Manning cements himself as the #2 starter behind Skubal and Riley play 140+ games

No way Holton doesn't make this team out of ST.

They have said they only planned for one so I don't think so.

I am not sure I would be willing to give up the draft capital for a single year of Snell.

But there's a key difference in the developmental paths. Everyone in the previous paragraph is at least 21 years old. Clark and McGonigle -- both high schoolers this time last year -- are only 19. Detroit is in for the long haul. "It will be the same processes, but they're going to be even more process-driven if that makes sense," said Tigers vice president of player development Ryan Garko. "They didn't have those college years in a big program like Jace and some of the other guys have. So I think we do a lot more in the weight room, a lot more education around their bodies, around routines, around health, around the grind of the season. Everything's going to be new to them. There's nothing that can prepare you for a full professional season until you've gone and done it."

One of the beat writers brought up the fact that Olson could miss Super Two status if he stays down in Toledo for the first couple of weeks of the season so that may also be a factor.

Sam Dykstra was saying the biggest thing will be to see if he can keep velocity up through the year as that has been a knock in the past.

If you wanna catch the last couple of innings; its free here. https://www.mlb.com/video/spring-breakout-phi-det-prospects

Briceno tore up the FCL last year and seems bound for Lakeland this year. 19 years old C/1B if he can stay at C and keep the power and average he'll be in some top 100 considerations.

Clark with the BB and steal

Jung with HR's today the first off of an Mick Abel change
