Jack: J.B. Bukauskas has been lights out and displaying dynamic stuff, just like Mike Hazen said he would. He’s struck out 9 of the 12 batters he’s faced in 4 outings and hasn’t allowed a baserunner. Most importantly, he’s throwing strikes. If he keeps pitching like this he’ll claim a spot in the bullpen for opening day.
Makakilo: Although I agree with Jack that J.B. Bukauskas looked great, so did Eduardo Escobar. You may recall that I wrote an article that included an idea of platooning Eduardo Escobar and Maikel Franko at third base, and a platoon may happen despite how well Escobar is hitting.
