So it could be a good lineup of some pretty good pitchers there over the weekend.

And Nance will pitch in Buffalo on Friday.

Yeah, if everything goes well today, just in terms of off the mound and kind of moving around, testing out the hamstring, yeah, that'll be Thursday and then max Friday.

For Dylan, I think he could go right to four or five innings, I think, just depending on how he feels and kind of go from there.

He's been feeling better lately.

I think today's side will tell a lot with kind of how he gets after it and come up with a plan in terms of pitches and innings.

It's more so the at-bats, I think, to get under his belt.

So the catching part he's been fairly comfortable with.

The games, I would think it would be a handful of games to get at least 20-ish at-bats in and probably rotate between catch DH to start and then definitely catch back-to-back before he gets back here.

Yeah, he will.

Yeah, I think get two or three games in Florida and then kind of see where we go from there.

Still TBD for Thursday, yeah.

We'll see how Kev and Corbs go and kind of adjust accordingly.

But as of right now, it'll be someone who can provide some significant length for us just with the way our bullpen's been used over the last couple weeks and make that call after tomorrow.

We'll see.

It may.

You know, it may involve an opener.

It may not, you know.

So I think just kind of seeing what the guys do the next two nights and see how much work they get or hopefully don't get.

He's doing all right, feeling better, and I think hit a little bit on the field early and in the cage, so he'll be available if we need him today.
