Felix Bautista, the once-dominant right-hander, returned to action for AA Chesapeake after major elbow and shoulder surgery—his second in under two years. Though thrilled to be back on the mound and signing autographs, his performance was a stark contrast to his past: he struggled with command, walked the first batter on eight pitches, and barely generated swings and misses. His fastball dipped to 97 mph, far below his usual velocity, and even coaching couldn’t revive his form. With his MLB dominance fading and a high-priced closer now on the roster, Bautista’s future looks uncertain as he enters his final year of team control.
