Despite he’s leaving Detroit Tigers today ‘Disappointment will be on A.J. Hinch

The New York Yankees have sent a message to the rest of the MLB in their first game of Spring Training.

The Bronx Bombers brought their nickname to life in their Spring Training debut against the Detroit Tigers.

The New York Yankees put their home run power on full display on Saturday in Lakeland, Florida.

During their victory against the Detroit Tigers, four different New York Yankees players launched home runs, including one of the top prospects in the MLB: Spencer Jones.

The 6-foot-6 outfielder proved why he is one of the MLB’s Top 100 prospects, launching a 470-foot bomb over the fence.

According to a report in the Japan Times, five-time All-Star Yu Darvish is aiming to be ready to go for the San Diego Padres series against the Los Angeles Dodgers in Seoul, South Korea.

The 37-year-old was limited to only 136.1 innings last season as a bone spur in his right elbow ended his 2023 campaign early.

Darvish said “Right now, the goal is to be ready by Korea,” stating that he plans on being fully healthy by the time those games come around.

The Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres will open the 2024 regular season in Seoul, playing a two-game set on March 20 and 21.

According to Mark Feinsand of MLB.com, former Los Angeles Dodgers utilityman Kike Hernandez is expected to sign his next contract in the coming days.

The 32-year-old is coming off a double hernia procedure that he underwent this offseason and is expected to be available for whichever team signs him.

Although Feinsand’s report was not specific about which team Kike Hernandez is expected to sign with, there have been a number of rumors linking the utilityman to the Los Angeles Angels.

He could be a useful addition to the Angels as they enter a new era in the franchise’s history following the departure of Shohei Ohtani.

Paul Skenes and the Pittsburgh Pirates played Jackson Holliday and the Baltimore Orioles on Thursday. It was a battle of former top picks in the draft, as Holliday was taken first overall in 2022, and Skenes was the top draft pick last year.

However, the two were not the only former top picks on the field. Joining them were Henry Davis, the top pick in 2021’s draft, and Adley Rutschman, the top pick in 2019.
