Yandy Diaz is hitting .417 with a .548 OBP with seven RBI 12 games this spring. He has walked six times and struck out only three. He has hit and shown good plate discipline at each minor league level and if it were up to Lenny, it would be Diaz playing second base in place of Jason Kipnis to start the season. Due to getting strep throat, Julio Urias has only pitched five innings this spring, putting him at a disadvantage to his competition for a spot in the rotation.

One reason we aren’t seeing Devon Travis play any games this spring might be because if a trip to the DL turns out to be necessary, Gibbons can back-date his stint as long as he doesn’t appear in a major league game. (Same goes for Josh Donaldson) Travis is working his booty off to get back to business, taking batting practice and running around the outfield. Kendrys Morales is crushing it by the way

Who will replace Jason Kipnis at second base? The Indians could move Jose Ramirez from third to second base and play Giovanny Urshela at third. Devon Travis and Josh Donaldson will make their spring debuts in a minor-league game today in Clearwater. There is a good chance Donaldson makes the opening day lineup but there’s more healing to be done for Travis and opening day will be cutting it close.
