G. Katoh - 2B

Gosuke Katoh's two-run RBI single propelled the Padres past the Dodgers on Saturday, resulting in a 2-1 victory.

Dodgers pitching seemed to have the Padres lineup mystified for most of the game, until Katoh came into the game in the sixth inning as a defensive replacement for Ha-seong Kim. Katoh's single was off Scott Alexander, and scored Pedro Florimon and Patrick Kivlehan. Katoh was signed in the offseason to a minor-league deal with an invitation to camp. The 26-year old has played a diverse range of positions through his minor league career and could very well earn himself a utility role in San Diego.

N/A

C. Paddack - SP

Chris Paddack threw two scoreless innings, giving up two hits and striking out one, in Saturday's win over the Dodgers, 2-1.

This is Paddack's second consecutive strong start of the spring; on March 1, he threw two hitless innings against the Cubs. Paddack's pitch mix continued to look effective against the Dodgers lineup in this abbreviated outing. The 25-year-old's 4.73 ERA belies his true potential; he spent this offseason increasing the spin rate on his fastball and should contribute to a strong bounce-back campaign in 2021.

N/A

J. Adell - RF

LAA

Jo Adell hit a two-run blast, but the Angels still fell to the Rockies on Saturday, 8-2.

Adell's 2020 numbers may have been lackluster; he slashed .161/.212/.266 in 132 plate appearances over 38 games, but the 21-year-old should benefit well from a proper Spring Training. Angels manager Joe Maddon seems to think Adell might further benefit from some time in the minors, so if he doesn't make the opening day roster, chances are he'll be back sooner than later. Adell carries a .962 OPS so far this spring; plenty of upside still remains.

N/A

J. López - SP

BAL

Jorge Lopez tossed three scoreless frames with one strikeout on Saturday against the Tigers.

Lopez, once the second-rated prospect for the Brewers back in 2017 according to Baseball America, now finds himself in his third organization fighting for a roster spot. The 28-year-old is not longer considered a prospect and is coming off a rough 2020 season when he posted a 6.34 ERA and 5.28 FIP over 38.1 innings. However, Lopez is out of options and may be an option for Orioles in the bullpen or as a spot starter this season.

Added 8:46 pm (EST)

N/A

T. Skubal - SP

DET

Tarik Skubal tossed two scoreless frames Saturday, allowing one hit while striking out one against the Orioles.

Skubal's fastball touched 96 miles per hour, but the interesting thing is that he mixed in a handful of splitters. The 24-year-old has a strong track record in the minors, including a 17.43 K/9 at Double-A. However, the question has always been if Skubal could thrive at the major league level throwing so many four-seam fastballs. Over 32 innings in 2020 the left-hander carried a 5.63 ERA, 5.75 FIP, and a 10.41 K/9, so the addition of more weapons to his arsenal could be intriguing. Skubal will be an interesting player to watch this spring.

Added 8:38 pm (EST)

N/A

C. Owings - 2B

Chris Owings hit his first home run of the spring, helping the Rockies to an 8-2 win over the Angels on Saturday.

Owings drove in two runs total today; his other RBI came in the fourth inning, where he hit a sacrifice fly, driving Brendan Rodgers home. The versatile 29-year-old posted a respectable .757 OPS for the Rockies in 2020, and can fill in at a handful of positions. Owings, a non-roster invitee, has a strong shot at a utility job.

Added 8:34 pm (EST)

N/A

O. Herrera - CF

PHI

According to Matt Breen of the Philadelphia Inquirer, Odubel Herrera could have the inside track for the centerfield job in Philadelphia.

Phillies manager Joe Girardi said the decision would be strictly about baseball and not the public perception of Herrera playing for the Phillies 22 months after being arrested on a domestic violence charge. Girardi went on to say, "We’re not allowed to punish anyone more than what MLB did. If Odubel doesn’t make the team, it would be what we would consider probably a lack of performance." The 29-year-old is off to a hot start this spring going 4-for-9 with a home run and a stolen base. Herrera will continue to battle Roman Quinn, Adam Haseley, and Scott Kingery in Phillies camp for a spot on Opening Day.
