Pitchers are throwing baseballs at Guardians spring training and they're talking to reporters. We react to some quotes from Guardians hitting coach Chris Valaika on Devyison De Los Santos and Myles Straw as told to MLB.com's Mandy Bell (https://www.mlb.com/guardians/news/chris-valaika-guardians-hitting-coach-on-2024-spring-training), as well as quotes from Shane Bieber's (https://www.mlb.com/guardians/news/shane-bieber-uses-driveline-technology-to-prepare-for-2024) time at Driveline this winter, and how Carlos Carrasco feels (https://www.mlb.com/guardians/news/carlos-carrasco-discusses-return-to-guardians), also as told to Mandy Bell.

We also watched a lot of college baseball over the weekend and shared our thoughts from top performers that could be 1.1 picks for the Guardians, as well as some other interesting names down the board.
