Zach Davies - Makes spring debutDavies allowed one hit and two walks while striking out three over two scoreless innings in Tuesday's spring game against the White Sox.

ImpactDavies was the first member of the projected rotation to debut in the Cactus League. The right-hander made 27 starts for the Diamondbacks last season, posting a respectable 4.09 ERA over 134.1 innings, which was aided by a low BABIP (.257). The 30-year-old doesn't overpower hitters and won't strike out many. He currently projects as fourth in the rotation behind Zac Gallen, Merrill Kelly (who starts Friday) and Madison Bumgarner.

Justin Steele - Nearing spring debutSteele (arm) is expected to make his Cactus League debut sometime this weekend, Tony Andracki of the Marquee Sports Network reports.

ImpactSteele was scratched from a scheduled Cactus League start this past Sunday due to arm soreness, but he made it through a bullpen session without issue Tuesday in Cubs camp. As long as everything goes more smoothly from this point forward, the 27-year-old left-hander should be ready to open the 2023 campaign as a mid-rotation starter on the North Side of Chicago.

Madison Bumgarner - Throws to live battersBumgarner faced hitters during a live batting practice session Monday, Steve Gilbert of MLB.com reports.

ImpactThis was Bumgarner's third such session of the spring. His next action will likely be in a Cactus League game, but Arizona manager Torey Lovullo did not indicate when that might occur. Projected members of the rotation are just now making their debuts: Zach Davies started Tuesday and Merrill Kelly is scheduled for Friday.
