Surrenders hard contactWeaver allowed seven runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out eight over 5.1 innings in Thursday's spring game against Kansas City.
ImpactAfter a promising Cactus League debut, Weaver has been less-than impressive during his three subsequent outings and sports an 8.59 spring ERA. The right-hander surrendered three more home runs Thursday and has given up eight homers, four doubles and one triple and over 14.2 spring innings. The strikeout potential makes him attractive, but Weaver may bring a lot of baggage.

Gives up first runsCrichton allowed three runs (two earned) on two hits while striking out one over one inning in Thursday's spring game against the Royals.
ImpactCrichton gave up his first runs during Cactus League play and has a 4.50 ERA and 1.75 WHIP over four innings.

It's unclear which way Lovullo is leaning.

ImpactSmith's first spring homer was all the offense the Diamondbacks could muster Thursday. He's competing with Tim Locastro for the opportunity to fill in for injured right fielder Kole Calhoun (knee), who is expected to miss the first two weeks of the regular season. Smith is batting .271 (13-for-48) with five extra-base hits, two RBI and 10 runs scored in 23 spring games.

Throws from 120 feetTillo (elbow) has been throwing up to 120 feet in spring training, MLB.com reports. He plans to pitch his first bullpen session during the second week of April with a June 22 targe...
ImpactHe's working his way back from July 2020 Tommy John surgery. The Royals think the left-handed Tillo could be electric in a bullpen role once back to full strength, though he's yet to pitch above Double-A.
