    Gus,I left Vientos out of the prospects list…he may still be in prospect status de facto, but he is technically far past the at bats to rookie-qualify. You might be right on Vasil, but I sense the next prospect pitcher besides Scott might be a reliever, and maybe…Suarez? No earlier than mid year for Joander.

    I know the weather was crap, but when Vasil started, it wasn’t pretty.

    Bill…good list. Butto was unimpressive in his first start, but polar bears were shivering in the stands.

    Fujinami (or he is first one designated to clear a 40-man spot)
    Butto
    Ingram
    Scott
    Acuna
    Alex Ramirez

    Added a 6th since Fuji could go either way.

    Denis, I left out Fujinama as he already has 64 MLB outings to his credit. I think Ramírez is a 2025 possible, not sooner after his down 2023 season. Thanks for the input.

    Added Ramirez since he is on the 40-man. Could see a cup when rosters expand. Expecting a big bounce back season from him.

    Denis thought Ramirez looked good this spring, but surprised he looked so slender.
