Austin Adams - RP

Seattle Mariners

Mariners general manager Jerry Dipoto said Saturday that Austin Adams (knee) has a chance to be ready whenever Opening Day arrives.

Added Apr 12 11:13 am (EST)

Adams had surgery last October to repair a torn left ACL and has progressed well since then. “He is moving quickly in his rehab,” Dipoto said. “Like most things he does, he’s been very aggressive. He’s already throwing, and the last update was he’s running at 100 percent in 30-yard increments. His stop-and-start is where it needs to be.” Adams was excellent during his time with the Mariners last season and could be in the mix for saves in 2020.

B. McKay - SP

TB

Brendan McKay (shoulder) has not throwing off a mound since spring training was shut down.

It's just a precautionary measure after McKay dealt with some stiffness in his pitching shoulder during spring training. Rays pitching coach Kyle Snyder expects the left-hander to be under "zero limitations" when/if spring training 2.0 gets underway.

Blake Snell (elbow) has not been throwing off a mound since spring training was shut down.

Snell had an abbreviated spring training after experiencing soreness in his surgically-repaired left elbow. However, the fact that he hasn't done any mound work for a while appears to be precautionary, as pitching coach Kyle Snyder expects the southpaw to have "zero limitations" when/if spring training 2.0 gets underway.

W. Flores - 2B

SF

Jon Heyman of MLB Network reports that Wilmer Flores has hired Cesar Suarez of Beverly Hills Sports Council as his new representation.

Flores was previously represented by the McNamara Baseball Group. The 28-year-old spent last season with the Diamondbacks before inking a two-year, $6.25 million contact with the Giants in early February. He was in line to serve in a utility role, but the pending addition of the universal designated hitter can only help his chances of regular at-bats. He's never exactly been known as a quality defender.

J. Paxton - SP

NYY

James Paxton (back) told YES Network’s Meredith Marakovits this week that he's been working on increasing the spin rate with his pitches.

Paxton required a microscopic lumbar discectomy on February 5, but he's pretty much back to normal at this point, estimating that he's throwing about 12-14 bullpen sessions. He expects to be ready to go whenever the season begins. However, the shutdown has allowed him to experiment. Working in Wisconsin, he's been using a ball which tracks spin rate and he's noticed more spin and back spin when throwing his fastball with the help of a new grip which features less contact with his thumb. The question is whether he'll feel comfortable doing it in games or resort to his old habits. According to Statcast, Paxton ranked 168th in fastball spin rate among pitchers who faced at least 250 batters last season. Paxton, 31, is due to become a free agent following the 2020 season.

A. Judge - RF

NYY

Yankees hitting coach told Meredith Marakovits of YES Network on Thursday that Aaron Judge (rib) has yet to resume swinging a bat.

It sounds like Judge is doing well, though, as he works his way back from a stress fracture in his rib and is just waiting to get the go-ahead from doctors. “When the doctors turn him loose, he’ll be ready," Thames said. "He’s champing at the bit to get out there.” General manager Brian Cashman indicated earlier this month that he expected Judge to be ready to play when/if the regular season finally gets underway.

B. Honeywell Jr. - SP

TB

Brent Honeywell (elbow) underwent a decompression procedure on his right ulnar nerve on Wednesday.

The procedure was performed in Los Angeles by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, and it removed scar tissue from the area of the nerve. It's another setback for the right-hander who missed all of 2018 after undergoing Tommy John surgery, and missed the 2019 campaign after he required an operation for a fractured elbow while rehabbing. The 25-year-old hurler will begin strength and mobility exercises starting on Monday. A pitcher with five pitches that he can locate and miss bats with, Honeywell has stuff and command that's ready to pitch in the majors. There's a very good chance that he'll begin the delayed campaign on the injured list, so that opportunity may not occur until 2021.

K. Kramer - LF

PIT

Kevin Kramer recently underwent right hip surgery and will be sidelined for 4-6 months.

This likely means that Kramer won't see the field at all in 2020. The 26-year-old former second-round pick spent the majority of the 2019 season with the Pirates' Triple-A affiliate in Indianapolis, where he batted .260/.335/.417 with 10 home runs and four stolen bases in 113 games. He's a career .152/.222/.165 hitter in 90 total plate appearances at the major league level.

Via Marte's personal Instagram page: "Today I go through the great pain of making public the unfortunate death of my wife Noelia, due to a heart attack. It is a moment of indescribable pain. On behalf of my family, I am grateful for the expressions of esteem and solidarity in this difficult time." Jon Heyman of MLB Network writes that Noelia "broke her ankle and was in the hospital and said to be awaiting surgery when she passed." The couple had three children together. Absolutely tragic news.
