BTW, in yesterday's post, I believe I asked if anybody knew the three starting pitchers in the org who have recorded Pitcher Wins this year? The answer to that was: Tristan Beck (4/7), Eric Silva (5/9), and Sean Hjelle (5/19)
I appreciate the bit of an update on Pomares. Another setback. Patience required, but based on the strides his 'classmates' Luciano and Matos are making this season I'm anticipating him taking the game by storm when he gets back.
Late to this but appreciate the answer about Meckler; I had read a report last summer from Tieran Alexander which described his splits as a switch-hitter, but since Tieran would write reports on 500+ players, it wouldn't surprise me if that was just using splits vs R and L and assuming the switch-hitting label accurate. Also, Baseball Reference seems to have re-coded their data in the last few months, as those RHB splits from '22 are now just "?HB" - that certainly suggests he's been lefty only in pro ball at least, and I haven't been able to find RHB video either
I heard the Richmond announcer mention the team nutritionist (Rachel Rodriguez?), and I wondered then if you might do an interview with her. I’d be interested to know about her background, how she heard about the job, what her daily responsibilities are, does she travel with the team, etc. I was pleased to read that this was one of the upgrades to the minors, and I am curious about what all is involved and how it’s going.

I've been working on it!
