Throwing triple-digit heat
Pilarski hit 101 mph with his fastball in a Cactus League game against Colorado on Monday, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.
ANALYSIS
Pilarski has never been on any sort of prospect radar -- he wasn't drafted out of college in 2021 and spent the past two years playing independent-league ball. The right-hander made massive gains with his velocity this winter, and the triple-digit heat he flashed against the Rockies helped him strike out the side in his inning of work. Pilarski has yet to pitch in the minor leagues and clearly has a ways to go in terms of development, but Dodgers manager Dave Roberts suggested that the 24-year-old won't necessarily have to make a slow ascent through the system, saying, "If he keeps pitching [impressively], he's gonna be on the fast track."

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could contribute in 2023
Pilarski has a chance to pitch for the Dodgers in 2023, J.P. Hoornstra of the Orange County Register reports.
ANALYSIS
As Hoornstra notes, Pilarski won't open the season with the Dodgers, but he's turned heads in camp and didn't allow a run in his two Cactus League appearances. The right-hander was undrafted out of the Citadel and spent two years playing in the independent Frontier League. He's added velocity while showing a quality breaking ball as well, so while Pilarski will likely start the year at the upper levels, he could be a bullpen option for Los Angeles before the end of 2023.
