    Wiggins went K, GO, GO in the first.

    That would be surprising since prep arms tend to fall every year and there isn't even a consensus on who the top prep pitcher is this year. Noble Meyer was much better regarded last year than any of this year's prep prospects and he fell to 10.

    Fernando Cruz goes 2/4 with a double, single, walk, strikeout and a stolen base in his first pro game.

    This was against Drew Thorpe, the crown jewel prospect in both the Juan Soto and Dylan Cease trades last offseason.

    Always good to avoid surgery.

    All well and good but the Marlins are good at pitcher development and credit to them for leaning into it. They really whiffed on Khalil Watson and Jacob Berry the years before. The Cubs are risk adverse but have had success with Shaw, Horton and Wicks and didn't have success with the far riskier Ed Howard. It's not sexy but good teams know what they're good at and continue to go back to that well.

    Fernando Cruz and DSL Cubs Red got rained out today. RHP Yander Maria ($200k bonus) made his pro debut, starting for the DSL Cubs: 2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K

    The one that surprised me is South Bend. Guess once we you get out of the cold April, the environment is a lot more conducive to hitting.

    Iowa is the 9th most hitter-friendly AAA park. Tennessee is middle of the pack in AA at 14th most hitter-friendly. South Bend is the 6th most hitter-friendly high-A park. And unsurprisingly, Myrtle Beach is the 2nd most pitcher-friendly low-A park.
