Today we break down what to expect this season from the promising young righty Cam Schlittler. To say he impressed in 2025 would be the ultimate understatement. With a blazing fastball and solid breaking pitches, he has a lot of upside, but also some real question marks. We dive into our biggest concern and more.

Big pitching move or not, the Yankees are going to need what they have in their staff to step up until the cavalry arrives. In this ep, we break down what Will Warren can realistically be at the big-league level. I get into his struggles, flashes of success, what actually works in his pitch mix, his left-right splits, and where the upside and risks really sit going forward.
