The top three interest me the most.

Anyone figure out why milb.com changed their scoring format? I hate not being able to see HR's and waiting forever for updates.

Should be a great day all around the minors today. Cordier is getting his first start in AA today. Hoping his control issues have been resolved over the winter.

Forgot to mention Zack Wheeler, who is also making his pro debut today, with Augusta.

(And speaking of pro debuts, Mike Leake makes his as well today, albeit in the Majors.)

Odorizzi!
Well technically it isn't a start, but Wisconsin plans to stack up starters quite frequently early on this season. He'll follow another guy who I'd like to have cards of, Damon Krestalude.
* Cody Scarpetta starts today, but already walking 4 through 2, and Vitters doubled in a run on him.
Stupid Vitters. Go to AA.

Can't believe this isn't generating a bit more buzz, not a lot of pitchers have skipped the minor leagues completely, and thats what Leake was able to accomplish with a great spring.

Travis d'Arnaud with his second HR. The kids in Dunedin look pretty pitiful so far....

 

[Hallsgator]

Strasburg giving up a double and single and 1 run in his first inning.

 

[darocker80]

C'mon Wheeler! (Have no cards at this moment )

 

[Jaypers]

Stras doesn't seem to have his best control so far, although velocity isn't a problem, as he's hitting 99 regularly.

EDIT: Jonathan Mayo is reporting he touched triple digits.

 

[Jaypers]

Chapman has an excellent 1st, striking out two and giving up nothing.

 

[Jaypers]

Rizzo 2-2, HR so far

 

[Jaypers]

Stras settling down nicely. 2 K's, threw nothing but strikes, and he hit triple digits again.

Chapman is very impressive as well. Only 3 hits given up, no runs and 3 K's through 2.

 

[Russ S.]

Troy Patton is doing well.
2 hits 4 K's in 5 innings.
