In looking for reasons that this season could, and really should, be different than last, one of the big ones is with the pitching depth. And even beyond there just being more reliable depth, there is also more upside with the depth given the prospects that look to be ready to contribute at some point in 2021. One of those pitchers has been thought to be Bryan Mata, who most view as the top pitching prospect in the organization. Unfortunately, the 21-year-old had some arm troubles early in camp and underwent an MRI. We learned Saturday morning that the MRI revealed a slight tear in his UCL.
