Weekend Review
Biggest thing's I've noticed over the weekend would be some of the position battles and jobs being won.
Third Basemen Nolan Arenado of the Rockies has been crushing the ball this spring and now the Rockies are considering to use him as their everyday 3B rather than send him back down to the minors. Arenado has 4 HR's and 10 RBI's with an OPS of over 1.000. He'd sure be an upgrade both offensively and defensively over veteran Chris Johnson.
Next position battle would be the 5th spot on the Indians rotation between Trevor Bauer and Scott Kazmir. Bauer the D.Backs top prospect last year had many problems off the field which I think forced them to move him out of the organization. He was almost a sure lock the have been the 5th starter in Cleveland and be a good sleeper pick but Scott Kazmir has came out of no wheres this spring and has been striking out guys like his old self. I wouldn't take a chance on Kazmir if he wins the job but if the Tribe gives it to Bauer he'd be a guy I'd keep my eye on early in the season.
Looks like the Cardinals are gonna let Shelby Miller and Joe Kelly Duel it out as they will each pitch in Tuesdays game with Miller getting the start. Joe Kelly has Pitched very well and looks like he has the edge right now but I think the Cards are giving Miller a chance to win the job over cause I don't think they will wanna waste another year of him in the minors.
