While position players don’t need to show up to camp until February 18th, many decided to come today to join the pitchers and catchers. The most notable of the group was shortstop CJ Abrams, especially considering how last season ended.
Abrams 2024 season was ended prematurely when he was demoted after an all-nighter in Chicago where he was seen at a casino deep into the night. The 2024 season had so much promise for Abrams, peaking with an all star berth. However, his second half struggles and his suspension left a sour taste in everybody’s mouth.
