+ A high velocity groundballer is always an intriguing profile. There’s an eerie feeling when you learn about a pitcher in Los Angeles, for reasons that could not be further apart. For pitchers who call Chavez Ravine their home, the player development pipeline is one of the best in baseball, but it comes with immense injury risk. For those who reside in Anaheim, the Angels hold the longest active postseason drought and don’t seem close to breaking it.

+ Can the Diamondbacks get a big lift on the pitching front? The run prevention in Arizona has not gone according to plan this season.

+ More hittable pitches doesn't always result in success. After an exciting breakout season in 2024, Lawrence Butler picked up where he left off to start 2025. Fresh off signing a seven-year, $65.5M extension with the Athletics in March, Butler had a 138 wRC+ through April 23rd, pacing ahead of his 2024 130 wRC+. He added four home runs and five stolen bases, putting him in the early running for a 30/30 season.
