Friday, April 17
Welcome to The Pregame Lineup, a weekday newsletter that gets you up to speed on everything you need to know for today’s games, while catching you up on fun and interesting stories you might have missed. Today’s edition is brought to you by David Adler.
To bunt, or not to bunt? That is the question. And we have the answer.
You can play the manager with MLB’s new Game Strategy Explorer on Baseball Savant. It’s a “choose your own adventure”-style tool that lets you see how different decisions can affect your team’s chances of winning a baseball game.
How does it work? Plug in any game situation — score, inning, outs, runners on base — and you can see the win probability for your team, based on how often Major League teams have actually won their games when facing those same situations over the last 10 seasons.
That means you can figure out how literally any play will change the win probability in a game. You just look at the difference from the “before” game situation (aka, the start of the play) to the “after” game situation (aka, the end of the play).
The Game Strategy Explorer also has this cool feature that lets you see, at a glance, how certain player or manager decisions will affect their team’s chances to win. Those decisions: stolen base attempts, intentional walks, sacrifice flies … and, of course, bunts.
So, for example, you can look at how costly it was for Matt Chapman to try to steal second base with the Giants down three runs in the ninth inning to the Mets a few weeks ago. Or you can see whether it was a big deal that the Blue Jays decided to lay down a sac bunt when they were down to their final three outs in the 11th inning of Game 7 of the World Series.
The possibilities are endless. If you want to understand the ins and outs of the Game Strategy Explorer a little better, Mike Petriello explains how to use it.
Here are three must-watch games for this weekend, one for each day. Info on how to watch every game is available at MLB.com/Watch.
Today: Rangers at Mariners (9:40 p.m. ET, MLB Network/MLB.TV)
Here, we’ve got two aces coming off their best starts of the season: Jacob deGrom vs. Logan Gilbert. deGrom just dominated the MLB-best Dodgers in a nine-strikeout gem, while Gilbert shut down the division-rival Astros to get his first win of 2026.
Saturday: Braves at Phillies (7:15 p.m. ET, FOX)
In this Saturday showdown between NL East rivals, two of the best lefties in baseball are going head to head. Cristopher Sánchez, last year’s NL Cy Young runner-up, starts for the Phillies against the 2024 Cy Young winner, Chris Sale, who’s bringing the heat right now.
Sunday: Brewers at Marlins (1:40 p.m. ET, MLB.TV)
Two electric young fireballers are pitching in this one: Jacob Misiorowski for Milwaukee and Eury Pérez for Miami. The Miz is the headliner — he leads the Majors with 33 strikeouts. But both pitchers have triple-digit heat. Only three MLB starters have hit 100 mph at least 10 times this season, and Misiorowski and Pérez are two of them. (Pirates rookie Bubba Chandler, who starts today against the Rays, is the other.)
The Angels announced sad news today: World Series hero and franchise icon Garret Anderson has died suddenly at the age of 53.
The Angels will honor Anderson for the remainder of the season by wearing a memorial patch on their jerseys, beginning with Friday’s homestand. Additionally, prior to this evening’s game, the club will host a moment of silence and run a special tribute video to honor the franchise great.
Former Angels manager Mike Scioscia once said of Anderson: “Garret played hard, he wanted to win. He’s got that internal competitive nature that every great player has to have, and he was really the foundation of our championship run back in 2002 and for many other years. He just was a terrific talent and a terrific person.”
A native of Los Angeles, Anderson went on to star in Anaheim for the franchise that selected him in the fourth round of the 1990 Draft. The power-hitting outfielder became the Angels’ all-time leader in games played (2,013), hits (2,368), RBIs (1,292), doubles (489), total bases (3,743), extra-base hits (796) and grand slams (eight). He was instrumental in the Angels’ 2002 World Series win over the Giants.
When he retired in 2011, Anderson said: “It was truly a privilege to play this wonderful game.”
Anthony Castrovince remembers Anderson’s life and career here.
Here’s what’s going on in baseball entering the weekend.
• Trout vs. Judge in the series of the year
It doesn’t get any better than this: Mike Trout and Aaron Judge, two three-time MVPs, putting on a show at Yankee Stadium. Trout and Judge combined to hit nine home runs in the four-game series — five by Trout, four by Judge — a performance that was simply historic. Sarah Langs has all the best stats from the Judge-Trout slugfest.
• Mason Miller, still unhittable
Will anyone ever score against Mason Miller again? The Padres closer is now up to 30 2/3 consecutive scoreless innings, and nobody’s even close to touching him. Miller has struck out 23 of the 30 batters he’s faced this season (77%), and 65 of the 104 batters he’s faced since the start of his scoreless streak last August (63%). He’s a cheat code.
• Lindor’s more Met than Guardian
Francisco Lindor is playing his 778th game with the Mets this afternoon, and that’s a milestone for the star shortstop. Lindor has now played more games as a Met than he did as a Guardian. Lindor played 777 games in Cleveland over the first six seasons of his MLB career, and he was a four-time All-Star there. But he’s meant just as much to the Mets since he arrived in 2021, with four top-10 MVP finishes and some of the team’s biggest swings during his time in New York.
• The best challenge of the season
We saw the single best ABS challenge of the season yesterday: White Sox catcher Edgar Quero successfully flipped a walk to a strikeout on a 3-2 pitch with the bases loaded of a tie game in the ninth inning. And how close was the call? The pitch was a strike by one tenth of an inch. Mike Petriello breaks down exactly how valuable it is to win a challenge there in the biggest of spots.
• Volpe’s first hit of the year
Yankees shortstop Anthony Volpe, who’s rehabbing from offseason shoulder surgery, smacked his first hit of 2026 yesterday at Double-A. It was just a nice line-drive single up the middle, and Volpe’s going to be in the Minors a little while longer, but he still said after the game: “It’s a big milestone, a big checkpoint.”
• The Buntin’ Brewers
Who says the bunt is going out of style? Not the Brewers, that’s for sure. The Brew Crew are forever the kings of small ball, but they outdid themselves yesterday. Milwaukee dropped down three straight bunts to score the go-ahead run and squeeze out an old-school win in the series finale against the Blue Jays. If you love the bunt, this is your team. Manager Pat Murphy says: “I think it’s coming back.”
A grand total of zero knuckleballs have been thrown in Major League games this season. And that’s a shame.
Matt Waldron is coming to change all that.
The Padres knuckleballer — currently MLB’s only true knuckleballer — is making his season debut tonight for the hottest team in baseball. Riding high on an eight-game winning streak, San Diego faces the Angels in Anaheim at 9:38 p.m. ET (Padres.TV/FanDuel Sports Network West).
And that means we’re going to see beautiful pitches like the ones in the GIF up above.

Thursday, April 16
Welcome to The Pregame Lineup, a weekday newsletter that gets you up to speed on everything you need to know for today’s games, while catching you up on fun and interesting stories you might have missed. Today’s edition is brought to you by David Adler.
Mike Trout has spent this week just tearing up the Yankees at Yankee Stadium.
In today’s finale between the Angels and the Bronx Bombers, Trout smacked his fifth home run of the series — as many homers as any player has hit in a single series against the Yankees in their history.
The only other players with five homers against the Yankees in one series were George Bell in 1990, Darrell Evans in 1985 and the legendary Jimmie Foxx in 1933. But none of those guys did it at Yankee Stadium.
So Trout has the most home runs by any visiting player ever in a series at Yankee Stadium — either the current Yankee Stadium or The House that Ruth Built.
To set the stage for the series finale, Trout smacked two home runs in Monday’s series opener in a historic showdown with fellow three-time MVP Aaron Judge, one on Tuesday as part of back-to-back-to-back homers by the Angels and another yesterday.
The Jersey boy Trout loves hitting at Yankee Stadium. And now it’s fair to ask the question: Is Trout’s series this week the single best series by a visiting player at the ballpark … ever?
He’s got a great case. But other stars have had great series at Yankee Stadium, too — even just the new one, which opened in 2009. Here are five players who have come to town and crushed it against the Bronx Bombers:
1) Mookie Betts, Red Sox
Sept. 28-Oct. 1, 2015
The 2015 season was the coming-out party for a 22-year-old Mookie, and he took over this series as the Sox won three of four games against their archrivals. Betts had four straight multi-hit games against the Yanks with six extra-base hits — three homers and three doubles — the most by any visiting player in one series at the current Yankee Stadium.
2) Miguel Cabrera, Tigers
Aug. 16-19, 2010
Before Trout, only two players had hit four home runs in a series against the Yankees at the new Yankee Stadium. Miggy was the first. Cabrera, who finished as the American League MVP runner-up in 2010, belted four of the 38 home runs he’d hit that season.
3) Mark Reynolds, Orioles
Aug. 31-Sept. 2, 2012
Reynolds is the other player to bash four homers against the Yankees in their stadium. He did it in a three-game series late in the season as the Yanks and O’s battled for the AL East title. Reynolds bookended the series with two multi-homer games, and the Orioles won both of those.
4) Prince Fielder, Rangers
May 22-24, 2015
This was the last great season for Fielder, who led Texas to the AL West crown by batting .305 with 23 home runs. The lefty slugger was awesome against the Yankees in New York, going 8-for-14 in the Rangers’ three-game sweep with three home runs and nine RBIs. (Programming note: Prince is this week’s guest on the 6-1-1 Podcast. Listen here.)
5) Rafael Devers, Red Sox
Aug. 18-20, 2023
Devers was always the Yankees’ nemesis, and they couldn’t get him out in this series. Devers led the Red Sox to a sweep with three consecutive three-hit games, including a pair of home runs. Devers’ nine hits are tied for the most by a visitor in any series at the new Yankee Stadium, and are the most in a three-game series.
Honorable mentions: Maikel Franco/2015 Phillies (3 HR, 10 RBIs in 3 games), Justin Morneau/2009 Twins (9 hits, 3 HR in 4 games)
In a surprise twist, Shohei Ohtani was only a pitcher — not a hitter — in the Dodgers’ series-sweeping win over the Mets last night.
It was the first time that Ohtani pitched, but didn’t hit, in a game since 2021. But it turns out, one-way Shohei is still pretty awesome.
Ohtani pitched six innings, allowed just one run on two hits and struck out 10. He was electric. And he brought some serious heat. Let’s take a look at three of Ohtani’s best strikeouts of the night:
1st inning vs. Francisco Lindor — 98.0 mph fastball
A day after Lindor smacked a leadoff home run against Dodgers ace Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Ohtani — who’s no stranger to hitting leadoff home runs himself — put the kibosh on that by blowing away Lindor with a 98 mph heater to start the game.
3rd inning vs. Lindor — 99.6 mph fastball
A few innings later, Ohtani and Lindor had an even better battle. This at-bat went 11 pitches, as Lindor went down 0-2, fouled off five two-strike pitches and eventually worked the count full. But on the 11th pitch, Ohtani switched up the timing of his delivery and “snuck” a near-100 mph fastball past Lindor for an inning-ending K. Lindor could only smile.
5th inning vs. Tommy Pham — 100.3 mph fastball
The Mets had the go-ahead runs in scoring position in the fifth, but in the most critical moment, Ohtani dialed up his biggest heat of the game. He threw four straight triple-digit fastballs to get out of the jam — including this one to strike out Pham. Ohtani said afterwards: “Considering where the game was at that point, I felt like I just really had to go full-throttle.”
Here’s what else is going on around the Majors today.
• Jackson Merrill had a night to remember
The Padres’ young star was at the center of one of the most dramatic wins of the season. Merrill first robbed Julio Rodríguez of a home run by going way up and over the center-field wall, then knocked a walk-off double to cap a wild five-run ninth-inning comeback by the Friars. The poor Mariners have now been robbed of four home runs already this season, since they were also on the receiving end of Jo Adell’s unprecedented three-robbery game.
• An electric 1st HR for the No. 1 pick
Nats prospect Eli Willits, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 Draft (and son of former big leaguer Reggie Willits), hit the first home run of his pro career yesterday. But it was no ordinary first home run — it was an inside-the-park home run. It doesn’t get any more exciting than that.
• The longest blast of the season
A’s catcher Shea Langeliers, who’s doing his best Cal Raleigh impression, just smashed his sixth home run already — and this one went the farthest of any in MLB this season. Langeliers’ 112.4 mph, 467-foot homer against the Rangers surpassed two Coors Field shots by the Astros’ Cam Smith (462 feet) and the Phillies’ Kyle Schwarber (460 feet) for the longest of 2026.
• Hoerner the engine for the Cubs
Nico Hoerner batted .333 last September. He batted .419 during the Cubs’ playoff run. And now he’s batting .324 to start the 2026 season after a career-best five-RBI game yesterdayagainst the Phillies. As manager Craig Counsell said: “He’s a machine right now.”
• Breakout sluggers surge in Hitter Power Rankings
In our first in-season Hitter Power Rankings, see where breakout sluggers like Jordan Walker, Ben Rice and Andy Pages rank alongside the game’s superstars.
Are you a Mariners fan who’s always wished that your baseball caps were just a little more functional? Well you’re in luck.
Seattle is hopping aboard the wacky giveaway train tomorrow night, which is “Kingdome Fanny Pack Hat Night” at T-Mobile Park.
That’s right — it’s a hat that’s also a fanny pack … and also a tribute to the Mariners’ old stadium.
The light blue Mariners baseball cap has a yellow fanny pack attached to the front of it, emblazoned with the outline of the Kingdome.
The first 10,000 fans who attend tomorrow’s homestand opener against the Rangers (9:40 p.m. ET/6:40 p.m. PT) will get the giveaway hat. Get your tickets here.
Can you Beat the Streak? Try to top Joe DiMaggio’s record hitting streak of 56 games by selecting a player each day to record a hit. If you get to 57, you can win $5.6 million. Plus, there’s a chance to win unique weekly prizes.
Cal Raleigh has been off to a slow start this season, but there’s no better pitcher for a get-right game for the Mariners star than tonight’s opposing starter, Walker Buehler. Raleigh’s 5-for-6 against Buehler with a homer and two doubles.

Dear Peter,
With the Jewish people facing danger and threats on every side, it is so vitally important that we stand up just as Esther did so many centuries ago. We must defend Israel to the world. And we must comfort, bless, and help those who are mourning in Zion. Together we are telling, and more importantly showing, the people of Israel that they are not alone. We have received a generous matching gift challenge that will double your gift to help twice as many people—so please be as generous as you can when you send your gift today.
Your support of the Friends of Zion today allows us to comfort the people of Israel who have been devastated by the war, continue to purchase and deliver food, medicine, clothing, and other necessities of life for the poor Holocaust survivors and refugees of Ukraine, continue to operate the Friends of Zion Museum, and to meet urgent humanitarian needs among the poor Jewish people living in Israel.
Thank you so much for being part of this vital worldwide prayer movement.DONATE NOW
Pray For The Peace Of Jerusalem
“Father God, I know that the greatest spiritual battle is taking place right now over the Holy Land. Satan is once again trying to annihilate Your Chosen People and to discredit Your Word and Prophetic Promises to Israel. I come against this illegal warfare against Israel and her people, in Jesus’ Name. I come against every deception and lie that is being propagated against them. I command the demonic powers of Satan be bound from this hideous action, in Jesus’ name.”
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Ephesians 6:12
Join with us and millions of others around the world in prayer for Israel:PRAY WITH US
