Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Tyler Glasnow (elbow) is scheduled to face live hitters in a live batting practice session at camp on Tuesday, according to The Athletic's Fabian Ardaya. Glasnow should be ready to go for Opening Day in 2025 after ending last year on the injured list and being unavailable for the playoffs due […]
Baltimore Orioles general manager Mike Elias said the team is expecting big things from third base prospect Coby Mayo in 2025. "I think the fact that he got his debut out of the way is a really good thing," Elias said. "I think that's big for young hitters these days. He's somebody that we think […]
Baltimore Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said that infielder Jordan Westburg will get some repetitions at second base this spring, but he'll mostly play third base at spring training. Westburg should start out at the hot corner in 2025, with prospect Jackson Holliday opening the year as the club's primary second baseman. The 26-year-old missed time […]
MLB.com's Jessica Camerato projects Washington Nationals outfield prospect Dylan Crews to hit second in the batting order in 2025, behind leadoff man and shortstop CJ Abrams. Crews, the second overall pick in 2023 out of LSU, has nothing left to prove in the minors. The 22-year-old made his major-league debut late in 2024 and went […]
San Francisco Giants middle infielder Tyler Fitzgerald (back) is dealing with a lower-back issue in camp, but it's not considered a major issue. The Giants will likely keep him out a couple more days as a precaution. It's something to watch as Fitzgerald heads into his first full big-league season in 2024, but barring any […]
ESPN's DJ Bien-Aime writes that the Houston Texans are unlikely to use the franchise tag on wide receiver Stefon Diggs (knee) this year because they have limited salary cap space in 2025 and don't want to dump almost $26 million into an aging player coming off a torn ACL. Diggs will also be 32 years […]
ESPN's Brooke Pryor writes that it would be cost prohibitive for the Pittsburgh Steelers to use the franchise tag on impending free-agent running back Najee Harris this year after they declined his fifth-year option a year ago. Additionally, neither quarterbacks Russell Wilson nor Justin Fields is worth the hefty price that would come with a […]
The first leg of the UCL Playoffs of the 2024-25 UEFA Champions League delivered thrilling action, highlighted by Real Madrid's sensational 3-2 victory over Manchester City and Bayern Munich's 2-1 win over Celtic.

ESPN New York's Rich Cimini writes that the New York Jets aren't expected to use the franchise tag this year on any of their seven starters that are scheduled to become unrestricted free agents. It makes sense that the Jets aren't looking to retain old players under a new regime with head coach Aaron Glenn […]
Houston Astros relief pitcher Kaleb Ort (oblique) is dealing with an oblique injury. Manager Joe Espada noted that the right-hander will not throw for a couple of days. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor Ort's status during spring training, as a setback could put him in danger of missing Opening Day. Last season, the 33-year-old […]
ESPN's Marcel Louis-Jacques writes that the only player the Miami Dolphins could even remotely consider placing the franchise tag on this offseason would be safety Jevon Holland, but that seems unlikely to happen since it's unreasonable to pay him $20 million in 2025 after he didn't intercept a single pass in 2024. Louis-Jacques thinks the […]
Using the ATC projections, we have a few ways to find surprising players based on the projection systems. One way is to look at the projected auction values compared to the average draft position and see which players might be value selections. Value is a tricky word since we're (usually) discussing projected value based on […]
The Chicago Cubs have signed infielder Justin Turner to a one-year contract worth $6 million. Throughout the offseason, the Cubs have shown interest in adding depth to their infield. They were considered a top landing spot for Alex Bregman but have begun to pivot towards Turner once he signed with the Boston Red Sox. In […]
The Associated Press' Stephen Hawkins reports that University of Miami quarterback Cam Ward, who many project to be taken with one of the first picks in the 2025 NFL draft, hasn't decided if he will throw at the NFL scouting combine in Indianapolis next week. Ward has taken a lot of heat for not playing […]
The shortstop position is very top-heavy in 2025. In NFBC drafts, four shortstops consistently go within the first round, with two more going in the second round. The top 11 players at the position are all being drafted within the first 100 picks. However, is it worth paying for these players at their current ADP […]
