A.J. Puk - Throws live batting practicePuk (groin) threw a round of live batting practice Tuesday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
ImpactAssuming there are no setbacks coming out of that workout, Puk will be on the rubber for his Grapefruit League debut Friday. He's been taking it slow over the last week or so due to left adductor tightness, but there are no serious concerns about his readiness for the beginning of the 2023 regular season. The southpaw figures to take on a share of the closer role this year in Miami, health permitting.

Tanner Scott - Throws live BPScott (biceps) threw live batting practice Tuesday in Marlins camp, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
ImpactIf he arrives back in camp Wednesday without any renewed discomfort, Scott should be cleared to make his Grapefruit League debut this Friday. He's been eased along so far at spring training because of minor discomfort in his left biceps, but it's looking like the 28-year-old high-leverage reliever is on track for Opening Day.

Trevor Rogers - Blanks BoSox on SundayRogers gave up one hit over three scoreless innings in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Red Sox. He struck out two.
ImpactFacing a lineup that included a number of Boston regulars, including Alex Verdugo and top prospect Triston Casas, Rogers breezed through his second outing of the spring. The left-hander has a 6:0 K:BB through five innings so far, and he appears to be on track to put a rough 2022 season behind him, looking more like the pitcher who posted a 2.64 ERA and 28.5 percent strikeout rate in a breakout 2021 campaign.
