Brennen Davis Flashing High Upside in Spring Training

Seattle Mariners outfield prospect Brennen Davis has been one of the top hitters in all of spring training and is making a strong case to spend most of the upcoming season in the major leagues. Davis, a former top prospect, saw most of his early minor-league career limited due to injuries. Through 13 spring games, […]


Quinn Mathews Reassigned to Minor-League Camp

St. Louis Cardinals left-handed pitching prospect Quinn Mathews was reassigned to minor league camp earlier this week. The left-handed prospect was in consideration to break camp with the MLB roster, but given the time he missed last season due to a shoulder injury and inconsistent production, he was likely ticketed for Triple-A. At camp, Mathews […]


Carlos Lagrange Dominant in Spring Training, Making Case for Early MLB Debut?

New York Yankees right-handed pitching prospect Carlos Lagrange has been one of the most dominant pitchers in all of spring training and has made a strong case to earn a spot on the MLB roster. Through 9 2/3 innings, Lagrange has posted a near-perfect 0.93 ERA with a 0.72 WHIP. During this stint, Lagrange has […]


George Klassen in the Mix to Earn Starting Role in Rotation

Los Angeles Angels right-handed pitching prospect George Klassen is a candidate to claim the final spot in the starting rotation, according to Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com. While veteran pitcher Alek Manoah opened camp as the favorite, his struggles in camp have opened the door for Klassen or Jack Kochanowicz to slide into a starting role. […]


Jett Williams Knocks Double in Return to Action

Milwaukee Brewers infield prospect Jett Williams (quadriceps) went 1-for-1 with a double and a walk in his return on Thursday afternoon. Williams has been held out of action for just over two weeks due to this quadriceps injury. However, the young infielder wasted little time making an impact, knocking a double in his first game […]

Top Fantasy Baseball Prospect Breakouts and Stashes at First Base (2026)

Targeting prospects in the later rounds of your fantasy baseball draft can push your team over the edge and secure a championship. Those who targeted players like Nick Kurtz at the beginning of the season and Nolan McLean in the second half reaped the rewards. In this piece, we will spotlight five of the top […]

NHL Power Rankings: Calder Memorial Trophy Rankings (March Update)

Over the past few weeks, we have updated our rankings for the Vezina Trophy, James Norris Trophy, and Hart Memorial Trophy. Now, it's time to shift our focus to the top rookies in the NHL. While the top candidate has to separate himself from the pack, the race for the No. 2/No. 3 spots is […]


Joe Mack Returns to Action Following Brief Injury

Miami Marlins catching prospect Joe Mack (neck) returned to the starting lineup during Tuesday's spring training contest against the Washington Nationals. The young back was sidelined for a few days due to neck stiffness, but quickly returned to action. In his return, Mack struggled at the plate, going 0-for-3 with a strikeout. The former 31st […]


JJ Wetherholt Hits Second Grapefruit League Home Run

St. Louis Cardinals top prospect JJ Wetherholt has continued to perform at a high level in the Grapefruit League as he launched his second home run on Monday afternoon against the Baltimore Orioles. Through nine games, Wetherholt has gone 5-for-18 with two long balls, one stolen base, and a strong 4:7 K:BB. The top shortstop […]


Emmanuel Rodriguez Optioned to Minor-League Camp

Minnesota Twins outfield prospect Emmanuel Rodriguez was unable to crack the Opening Day roster and was optioned to minor-league camp earlier on Monday. Rodriguez is considered the team's No. 4-ranked prospect and the overall No. 74-ranked prospect in the sport on MLB.com. Given that he spent most of his 2025 season at Triple-A, he was […]


Kevin McGonigle Launches First Spring Training Home Run

Detroit Tigers infield prospect Kevin McGonigle went 1-for-3 with a solo home run during Monday's contest against the Tampa Bay Rays. This was the top prospect's first long ball of spring training. Overall, McGonigle has looked quite comfortable facing MLB-caliber pitching, posting a .318/.444/.636 slash line with two doubles, one home run, and one stolen […]


Parker Messick Looks Sharp on Monday, Continues to Make Case for Starting Role

Cleveland Guardians left-handed pitching prospect Parker Messick logged another strong outing on Monday afternoon and continues to make a strong case to begin the campaign in the starting rotation. Messick logged 4 2/3 innings against the Kansas City Royals and allowed no runs with just two hits and one walk. He struck out four. Over […]


Kyle Teel Exits Tuesday's Game With Hamstring Injury

Chicago White Sox catcher Kyle Teel (hamstring) was removed from Tuesday's World Baseball Classic game against the United States due to right-hamstring discomfort. Before exiting the contest, the young catcher was off to a roaring start, going 2-for-2 with a solo home run and a double. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to his status, […]


Hunter Greene to be Sidelined Through July

Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Hunter Greene (elbow) is expected to be sidelined for the next 14 to 16 weeks to remove bone chips and loose bodies in his right elbow. This will keep the team's ace sidelined through at least July. The hard-throwing right-hander underwent an MRI due to an elbow issue last week and […]

Undervalued and Overvalued Fantasy Baseball Catchers - Targets and Avoids at ADP (2026)

For the first time in potentially the history of fantasy baseball, the catcher position is one of the deepest in the sport. Entering 2026, managers have more "No. 1 catcher" opinions than ever before, which can make navigating the position quite difficult. In this piece, I will spotlight five catches who are either top targets […]

NHL Power Rankings: Where Do All 32 Teams Stand Ahead of Week 21?

With Week 20 of the NHL season in the books, it's time to update our power rankings. The playoff push is in full strength, and any short losing streak could seal a team's fate. This week, we saw the Dallas Stars continue to rise in our rankings, while the Buffalo Sabres claimed the No. 1 […]


Jaxon Wiggins Optioned to Minor-League Camp

Chicago Cubs right-handed pitching prospect Jaxon Wiggins was sent to minor-league camp on Sunday afternoon. The team's No. 2-ranked prospect was given the opportunity to begin spring training with the MLB roster but will return to the minor leagues to continue his development. The 24-year-old was unlikely to begin the 2026 season in the major […]


Jonathon Long Nearing Return to Baseball Activities

Chicago Cubs first base prospect Jonathon Long (elbow) is nearing a return to baseball activities, according to Bruce Levine of 670 The Score. Long has been sidelined with a bruised elbow but has avoided any structural damage and should be cleared to return to action in the coming days. Long is considered the team's No. […]


Leo De Vries Crushes Two Home Runs on Sunday

Athletics shortstop prospect Leo De Vries went 2-for-4 with two home runs and six RBI during their victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Sunday afternoon. The team's No. 1-ranked prospect (and MLB.com's No. 4-ranked prospect) enjoyed a massive breakout game. Overall, through 11 spring training games, De Vries has gone 10-for-26 with three stolen […]


Didier Fuentes Strikes Out Four in Spring Debut

Atlanta Braves right-handed pitching prospect Didier Fuentes tossed two innings of relief in his spring training debut on Saturday against the Baltimore Orioles. Fuentes logged two innings and did not allow a hit or a walk, and struck out four hitters. The 20-year-old right-hander made his MLB debut last summer but was unable to find […]


Josue De Paula Sent to Minor-League Camp

Los Angeles Dodgers outfield prospect Josue De Paula was assigned to minor-league camp on Sunday. The team's No. 1-ranked prospect (according to MLB.com) was unlikely to make the MLB roster out of spring training but was given a small taste of MLB action. During spring training, De Paula posted a strong .375/.464/.417 line across 14 […]


Joshua Baez Impressing in Spring Training, to Contend for Early Debut?

St. Louis Cardinals outfield prospect Joshua Baez is making a strong impression early in camp and could contend for a much-earlier-than-expected MLB debut. Through nine games, the team's No. 4-ranked prospect has posted a strong .333/.429/.667 slash line with two home runs and one stolen base. Last summer, Baez spent time at High-A and Double-A. […]


Maxx Crosby Traded to Baltimore in Blockbuster Deal

According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, the Baltimore Ravens are acquiring superstar defensive end Maxx Crosby from the Las Vegas Raiders in exchange for a 2026 first-round pick and a 2027 first-round pick. The five-time Pro Bowler has been in trade discussions for several months and has finally found a suitor. Crosby has spent his […]


Owen Caissie Off to Slow Start in Camp

Miami Marlins outfield prospect Owen Caissie has struggled in his first taste of action in spring training. The former 45th overall pick has posted an underwhelming .111/.273/.111 slash with a .384 OPS. Caissie has struck out six times (over nine at-bats) and only drawn two walks. Caissie was shipped to Miami earlier in the winter […]


Logan Henderson Sharp in Spring Training

Milwaukee Brewers right-handed pitcher Logan Henderson has been quite sharp in his first two appearances in spring training and remains in a prime position to begin the regular season in the starting rotation. Over his first four innings of work, Henderson has allowed just two runs (one earned) while posting a strong 0.50 WHIP. He […]


Robby Snelling Punches Out Six Over Three Scoreless Frames

Miami Marlins left-handed pitching prospect Robby Snelling was sharp in relief on Thursday afternoon, tossing three scoreless frames with one hit and one walk. He struck out six. The prospect entered the contest after Sandy Alcantara got the starting nod and logged three innings himself. This was a nice bounce-back outing for Snelling as he […]


Bryce Eldridge Performing Well in Cactus League

San Francisco Giants first base prospect Bryce Eldridge has looked quite strong during his first taste of spring training and is carrying some solid momentum into his first full MLB season. Through nine games in camp, the team's top hitting prospect has posted a .263/.391/.579 slash line with three doubles, a home run, and a […]


Dylan Beavers Holding his Own in Spring Games

Baltimore Orioles outfield prospect Dylan Beavers has continued to hold his own through the opening weeks of spring training. Over his first six games of camp, the team's No. 2-ranked prospect (according to MLB.com) has hit .250/.294/.563 line with an .857 OPS. During this stretch, Beavers has tallied three doubles with a triple. However, he […]


Chase Burns has Uneven Command in Spring Training

Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Chase Burns has contended to flash immense upside throughout the early part of spring training, but has still struggled to command his pitches. Over his first 4 1/3 innings of work, the hard-throwing right-hander has walked five batters while striking out seven. He has surrendered only one run and held a […]
