⚾Here are the 26 players the Friars will start the season with:
Several players will start the season on the Injured List. Outfielder Adam Engel is on the 10-day IL with a hamstring issue while the quarter of pitchers Joe Musgrove , Robert Suarez Drew Pomeranz , and Jose Castillo are all on the 15-day IL. All of them are expected to return before the end of April.
Honeywell was expected to fight for a spot as either a starter or a long relief option and earned his way onto his first Opening Day roster as the latter. Tapia has pitched for four teams in three years but never been in the big leagues on Opening Day. He earned a roster spot with a solid Cactus League showing, striking out 11 hitters with no walks in 8.0 innings.
Darvish will miss the first trip through the rotation as he continues to build up after being pushed back helping Japan win the World Baseball Classic. After Snell, Martinez, Wacha, and Lugo it will be Ryan Weathers as the 5th starter. The former 1st round pick struggled in 2022 but revamped his delivery in the off-season and threw well enough to get at least one start as Darvish progresses and Musgrove heals.
