I think I would have kept Leiter. White has a 7.30 era at Round Rock. He can’t pitch at the AAA level.
I don't think they wanted to put Leiter in the pen. Also, like Winn, White could look a lot better coming out of the pen.

Leiter is definitely the best option as a starter.

I believe we really have something in Leiter. Addional time to smooth out his control and tweak his pitches will prove he has a place in the rotation.

Sorry to hear of the death of Jonah Heim's mother-in-law.

Huff was hitting great for Round Rock. I sure hope Bochy let's him play while he is up.

Some notes from Scott Lucas:


Regarding Owen White's promotion, he's pitching better than his 7.30 ERA and better than during 2023, but under ordinary circumstances, I really doubt he'd be getting the call.

Dane Acker has yet to allow an extra-base hit and has strike out 37% of his opponents. I don't know that he's quite that good, but he's certainly aiming toward a promotion to AAA and 40 spot. And, under the circumstances, who knows what else.

Santos fanned a personal-best 12, including a stretch of nine in ten batters interrupted by a walk. He, too, has yet to allow an extra-base hit, and 40% of opponents have walked back to the dugout.

Three rehab starts for Scherzer would have him starting here on the 10th of May. Two rehab starts gets him back on the 5th.

4 really good innings from Teodo so far.
