"Mets Secure One-Year Deal with J.D. Martinez for 2024 Season"

Rangers' phenom Wyatt Langford is honored to be compared to Mike Trout, while Trout himself is struggling at the plate. The Rangers' acquisition of Michael Lorenzen may impact their pursuit of Jordan Montgomery, who is also being considered by the Astros. The Dodgers' infield defense has been criticized, and there is speculation about the Padres' Ha-Seong Kim as a potential target for them. The Red Sox are expected to continue sitting out the winter free agent market, and with Lucas Giolito and Alex Verdugo facing setbacks, their upcoming season may be a ratings challenge.

"Meet the Phillies' Powerhouse Roster for the 2023 NL Wild Card Series"

The Philadelphia Phillies have opted to leave pitcher Michael Lorenzen off their roster for the National League Wild Card Series against the Miami Marlins, instead choosing to carry an extra right-handed bat to counter Miami's left-heavy pitching staff. The Phillies believe they won't need 13 pitchers in the best-of-three series and have added infielder/outfielder Weston Wilson to the bench. Lorenzen, who threw a no-hitter in his second start for Philadelphia, could potentially be included in the next round if the Phillies advance.

"Phillies' Wild-Card Roster: Rookies Galore, But No Lorenzen"

The Philadelphia Phillies have included two rookies, Orion Kerkering and Weston Wilson, in their wild-card roster for the playoffs against the Miami Marlins. Kerkering has impressed with his slider and could be a valuable late-inning option. Wilson's strong performance in the minors earned him a spot as an extra right-handed bat. The Marlins' roster features many left-handers, making Wilson's inclusion even more strategic. Surprisingly, Michael Lorenzen did not make the roster despite being acquired by the Phillies as a reliever.

Lorenzen's Struggles Continue as Braves Overpower Phillies

Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Michael Lorenzen has been struggling since his impressive no-hitter six weeks ago, leading to his recent shift to the bullpen. In his first appearance as a reliever, Lorenzen had a disastrous outing, allowing three runs and six baserunners in just one out. With a 9.23 ERA and 2.05 WHIP since the no-hitter, Lorenzen's role on the team is now uncertain. He may end up as a traditional right-handed reliever heading into the playoffs. Lorenzen acknowledges the difficulties he's facing and is determined to make adjustments to improve his performance.

"Phillies vs. Nationals: A Weekend Showdown and Little League Classic Preview"

Michael Lorenzen of the Philadelphia Phillies has a chance to become the first pitcher since Johnny Vander Meer in 1938 to throw consecutive no-hitters as he faces the Washington Nationals on Friday night. The Nationals have been playing better recently, winning five out of six games against the A's and Red Sox. However, Lorenzen's task is challenging, and it is unlikely that he will achieve the feat. The Phillies will be facing pitchers Joan Adon, Jake Irvin, and Trevor Williams, who have struggled in their recent outings. Bryce Harper, who had a two-home run game, will be looking to continue his success against his former team.

Michael Lorenzen Reflects on Post-No-Hitter Soreness

Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Michael Lorenzen, who threw a no-hitter in his last start, woke up feeling "10 percent more sore" than usual. He will have eight days of rest before his next start, allowing him to recover. The Phillies plan to transition back to a five-man starting rotation as their schedule lightens, but it remains uncertain whether lefty Cristopher Sánchez will move to the bullpen. Lorenzen spent the day after his historic performance reflecting on the game and answering questions from family and friends. He also received requests from the Hall of Fame for memorabilia from the no-hitter. Johan Rojas, the Phillies' center fielder, played a crucial role in the no-hitter by making several impressive catches.

Rays' Ace Pitcher McClanahan's Forearm Injury Raises Concerns

Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Shane McClanahan will visit the team doctor after experiencing tightness in his forearm during his last start. Three traded starters, Michael Lorenzen, Max Scherzer, and Jack Flaherty, are set to make their debuts with their new clubs. Former Cy Young winner Dallas Keuchel triggered an opt-out clause in his minor league deal with the Minnesota Twins, giving them 48 hours to add him to the roster or release him. Keuchel has shown promising results in Triple-A, and if the Twins don't make room for him, he could find another team to sign with.
