Montreal Canadiens winger Cole Caufield (illness) will return to action on Saturday against the San Jose Sharks. The young forward has been battling an illness this week, but his absence will be limited to one game. Caufield has had a huge year, already matching his career high with 37 goals and adding 27 assists in 63 games. He needs just seven more points to set his new scoring record for a single season. In Saturday's matchup, Caufield will be reunited with Juraj Slafkovsky and Nick Suzuki on the first line. He will also reclaim his spot on the first power-play unit. Alexandre Texier will move down to the fourth line, while Brendan Gallagher will sit out the game as a healthy scratch.--Taavi Pailk

Buffalo Sabres right wing Alex Tuch (lower body) is expected to rejoin the lineup on Saturday against the Toronto Maple Leafs. He was unavailable on Thursday against Pittsburgh due to a lower-body injury. Tuch was on fire before exiting the lineup earlier this week, recording points in seven consecutive outings. He's the second-highest scoring forward on his team, sitting on 28 goals and 57 points in 64 games. The Maple Leafs know all about Tuch's quality, as the 29-year-old has tallied two goals and one assist in three games against them this season.--Taavi Pailk

Chicago White Sox right-handed pitcher Mike Vasil (elbow) exited with a trainer during the middle of his Cactus League start against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Saturday. According to an announcement from the team, Vasil is experiencing right elbow soreness and will undergo additional evaluation. At the time of his departure, he had gone 3.2 scoreless innings with two hits, two walks, and three strikeouts. Vasil has been in the mix for a rotation spot this spring, making two relief appearances and two starts. That follows a similar trend from the 2025 regular season, in which the right-hander threw 101 innings across three starts and 44 bullpen outings. He typically offers long relief, and this new injury may impact his quest to make the White Sox' rotation out of camp. Anthony Kay and Erick Fedde are currently projected to earn regular-season starts over Sean Newcomb, who was confirmed as a reliever this weekend, and the injured Vasil.--Andersen Pickard

Minnesota Wild right wing Bobby Brink (upper body) won't play on Saturday against the New York Rangers, Dylan Loucks of The Hockey News reports. He will be sidelined for a second consecutive game due to an upper-body injury. Brink's next chance to return will come on Monday against the Toronto Maple Leafs. While Robby Fabbri filled in for Brink on the third line in Thursday's matchup with the Philadelphia Flyers, Nico Strum will jump into the lineup against the Rangers. Strum has managed only 10 points (four goals, six assists) in 41 outings this season and doesn't have much fantasy value.--Taavi Pailk

New York Rangers forward J.T. Miller (upper body) has been cleared to return to the lineup on Saturday against the Minnesota Wild, Mollie Walker of the New York Post reports. The Rangers captain has sat out five games due to an upper-body injury. After a disappointing start to the season, Miller was enjoying fine form before his injury, notching 18 points (five goals, 13 assists) in 18 games. He has totaled 14 goals and 24 assists in 51 outings across the season. On Saturday, Miller will be part of the first power-play unit and skate on the second line alongside Vincent Trocheck and Will Cuylle.--Taavi Pailk

Boston Red Sox infielder Romy Gonzalez (shoulder) said that he hopes to return in late May after undergoing surgery earlier this week, according to Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic. Gonzalez noted that the surgery was a clean-up procedure, and so he doesn't expect to miss more than the minimum 60 days associated with his injured list placement. The veteran infielder specialized in hitting left-handed pitching last year, so his absence through the first two months will be felt, especially since the team no longer has Rob Refsnyder, a fellow slugger against left-handed pitching. Gonzalez primarily played first base in 2025, but his injury creates more of a general void on the right side of the infield now that Boston has Willson Contreras at first base and no clear answer at second base.--Andersen Pickard

Chicago White Sox pitcher Sean Newcomb will open the regular season in the bullpen, manager Will Venable told Kyle Williams of The Chicago Sun-Times. Newcomb has produced mixed results this spring. His 9.00 K/9, 2.45 BB/9, and 47.2% ground ball rate are impressive, but the same can't be said about his 1.64 HR/9 and 5.11 FIP. While Newcomb has experience starting and relieving, this decision shouldn't come as much of a surprise. Only five of his 48 appearances last year were starts, and he hasn't made more than five starts in a single season since 2018. Newcomb's placement in the bullpen should lead to Anthony Kay and Erick Fedde making the White Sox' Opening Day starting rotation. Pitching prospects Hagen Smith and Noah Schultz will likely open the year in Triple-A.--Andersen Pickard

Arizona Diamondbacks catcher Gabriel Moreno's (elbow) medical tests revealed only inflammation and no structural damage, manager Torey Lovullo told Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic. Lovullo said that Moreno should be ready for Opening Day. The young had been scratched Friday night with forearm tightness, and while any sort of ailment is concerning, fans and fantasy managers should feel relieved that he doesn't have any structural damage in his elbow. Moreno, 26, has dealt with some durability concerns throughout his young career, but he did post an encouraging .285/.353/.433 slash line with nine home runs, a 9.4% walk rate, a 17.2% strikeout rate, and 117 wRC+ last year. Because he's not a lock to play a full complement of games, he ranks as the #17 catcher in RotoBaller's updated fantasy baseball rankings for 2026.--Andersen Pickard

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Joe Ryan will not pitch in the World Baseball Classic, a club official told MLB.com's Matthew Leach. The decision is not injury-related. Rather, the move reflects the fact that the USA coaching staff wasn't planning to use him as a starter, and they preferred a reliever to give them short-length relief outings. Leach explains that the decision was "probably not quite as black and white" as simply rostering a reliever over a starter, but that fans should rest assured Ryan is healthy and the team would have supported his choice to pitch in the WBC. Returning to Twins camp should give him the opportunity to make one or two more starts before Opening Day. He remains the #21 starter in RotoBaller's latest fantasy baseball rankings for 2026.--Andersen Pickard

Houston Astros second baseman Brice Matthews "will get some run in left field" during Saturday's Grapefruit League game against the New York Mets, manager Joe Espada told Chandler Rome of The Athletic. It's a very interesting development since Matthews has almost exclusively played the infield since being selected in the first round of the 2023 MLB Draft. He has just 64.2 total innings in center field (all in the minors) and has never played a professional inning in left field. Matthews went just 7-for-42 in the majors last year and had 118 wRC+ in Triple-A, so it's unclear whether this introduction to a new position is the Astros' way of getting his bat into the lineup or just an effort to increase his defensive versatility. You could also argue that we shouldn't read too much into one spring training lineup, so it'll be important to see if Matthews playing the outfield becomes a trend or is just a one-time occurrence.--Andersen Pickard

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton was a top-15 fantasy receiver for the second year in a row in 2025, but he was very inconsistent week over week and saw his role diminish as some of the Broncos' younger receivers stepped into larger roles. Sutton had eight games with at least 16.7 full-PPR points, but he also had four games with fewer than 5.5 fantasy points, which is far from ideal for someone being drafted as a WR2. He also had four different games with just one catch as the Broncos worked to feature Pat Bryant and Troy Franklin. Bryant, a rookie, registered at least seven fantasy points, three catches, and four targets in each of his last five games. Meanwhile, Franklin, a second-year receiver, had three games with at least 20 points and finished as the overall WR31. It may be too soon to predict that either Bryant or Franklin will completely outscore Sutton in year-long fantasy football, but the 31-year-old is definitely a riskier pick in 2026 given his teammates' ascensions. Sutton is best viewed as a low-end WR2 or high-end WR3 with a floor outside the top 36 receivers.--Andersen Pickard

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice has struggled with availability over the last two seasons, and he's likely hoping to rediscover the productivity he demonstrated as a rookie back in 2023. Over the last two years, Rice has been held to just 12 total games due to injury and suspension. He managed to tally 571 yards and five touchdowns across eight games in 2025, but he only finished as the WR40 in PPR leagues. By the time he returned after his eight-week suspension, it was too late for many of his fantasy managers to get back into contention. Being available for 17 games in 2026 would be ideal for Rice and his fantasy managers, as he can produce 1,000 receiving yards and 10 touchdowns. Unfortunately, there's still plenty of risk associated with drafting him. Rice faces an unresolved lawsuit for domestic violence and could end up being suspended again. Much like last year, we could see Rice's status remain in limbo deep into the summer, leaving plenty of uncertainty and doubt for fantasy managers. There's top-24 upside here if Rice plays 17 games, but we could also see a scenario where he misses half the year once again.--Andersen Pickard

Los Angeles Chargers running back Omarion Hampton continues to trend upward ahead of the 2026 season. Hampton is coming off an impressive rookie campaign and should now benefit from playing in a system led by offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel. Under McDaniel's leadership last year, the Dolphins had the fourth-most rushing yards per carry, so we would expect Los Angeles to adopt a run-heavy system with similar success in 2026. Hampton had 380 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns through his first four games, but a midseason injury interrupted his progress and led to subpar results at the end of the year. Now that he's heading into his second season and is healthy, Hampton should take that next step forward and produce as a potential top-12 fantasy running back. He'll also benefit from having more protection in front of him, as the Chargers' league-worst offensive line added projected starters Tyler Biadasz and Cole Strange this offseason.--Andersen Pickard

The Los Angeles Chargers have re-signed quarterback Trey Lance to a one-year deal worth up to $6.75 million, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.com. Lance continues to operate in a depth role, as he has made just 16 appearances (six starts) since being drafted third overall by the San Francisco 49ers in 2021. He backed up Justin Herbert in Los Angeles last year, making four appearances and one start. He finished the year 0-1 with a 47.4% completion rate, 226 passing yards, zero touchdowns, and one interception. He also rushed for 85 yards on the ground. Lance isn't a very flashy name, and the $6.75 million maximum value of his deal likely has a much lower base rate with plenty of playing time-based incentives. He's avoidable in all fantasy leagues as long as Herbert remains healthy, and even if the starter misses time, Lance wouldn't be a very appealing streamer.--Andersen Pickard

The Philadelphia Eagles are expected to move wide receiver A.J. Brown this offseason, with Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk now describing a trade as "inevitable." At this point, it sounds like it's truly a matter of when -- not if -- Brown will be dealt. June 1 remains a popular date being thrown around, as trading Brown after that point would result in significantly fewer salary cap consequences for the Eagles. As a result, we may see trade rumors continue to run rampant for another two-and-a-half months. Which teams might be in on Brown, though? Florio reports that the Rams, who were previously seen as a top landing spot, have "tapped out of the talks." It would have been an interesting fit anyway, given that Los Angeles already has Puka Nacua and Davante Adams on its roster. Instead, Florio writes that the Patriots are viewed as the favorite to acquire Brown, with one NFL source predicting "that the Patriots will be the eventual destination." That would make more sense than the Rams; although New England signed Romeo Doubs this offseason, they're still in search of a No. 1 receiver after releasing Stefon Diggs. Reuniting Brown with head coach Mike Vrabel would pay dividends for the Patriots' offense, and it would also solidify quarterback Drake Maye's status as a top-three quarterback in fantasy football.--Andersen Pickard

MLB.com's Christina De Nicola has Connor Norby projected as the Miami Marlins' starting third baseman for the start of the 2026 regular season. Graham Pauley (elbow) was expected to compete for starting third base duties with Norby in spring training, but Pauley remains in a no-throw status due to an elbow injury and has been relegated to the designated-hitter role in Grapefruit League games. Norby "will need to continue improving on defense" and "showing better plate discipline," but as of right now, he appears to have a leg up on playing time at the hot corner in Miami to begin the 2026 season. The 25-year-old Norby needs to make more contact at the plate to keep the third base job. He's hit .276 (8-for-29) with a home run, three RBI, three runs scored, no walks, and 11 strikeouts in 11 Grapefruit League games. In deeper leagues, Norby is certainly worth a late-round flier for his moderate power/speed upside.--Keith Hernandez

Tampa Bay Rays right-handed reliever Edwin Uceta (shoulder) threw a bullpen session in camp on Saturday morning, the first time he has thrown off a mound since receiving a cortisone shot for shoulder inflammation in mid-February, according to John Romano of the Tampa Bay Times. The Rays haven't officially ruled Uceta out for Opening Day in late March, but he's still likely to begin the year on the injured list due to his injury setback this spring. With the 28-year-old likely to be ready, it sets up the Rays for a closer-by-committee approach, which is expected to feature Griffin Jax, Garrett Cleavinger, and Bryan Baker. Despite his shoulder injury, the 28-year-old Uceta is an intriguing stash candidate in fantasy baseball leagues as a high-leverage relief arm. The Dominican hurler had a 1.51 ERA in 2024 and was one of just five relievers in baseball in 2025 to strike out over 100 batters in 76 innings of work for Tampa.--Keith Hernandez

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Hyeseong Kim (hand) is expected to be back in the Cactus League lineup on Sunday against the Chicago Cubs, manager Dave Roberts told Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic. Kim injured his left hand on March 8 against Australia while playing for Team Korea in the World Baseball Classic. It's not considered a serious injury, though, and all signs point to Kim being fine for Opening Day with the Dodgers later this month, barring a setback. The 27-year-old South Korean native ended up playing in 71 games for L.A. in the regular season in 2025 in his first year in the big leagues, slashing .280/.314/.385 with a .699 OPS, three home runs, 17 RBI, 19 runs, and 13 stolen bases in 170 plate appearances. Kim's power and playing time will be limited as a utility player for the Blue, and he'll mostly be valuable in deeper fantasy leagues for his speed on the base paths while offering eligibility at second base, shortstop, and center field. Tommy Edman's ankle injury will give him a better path to at-bats early on in 2026.--Keith Hernandez

The Tennessee Titans and wide receiver Calvin Ridley have agreed to a restructured deal that will keep the veteran in Nashville for the 2026 season, according to Tom Pelissero. Ridley signed a top-of-the-market four-year deal in 2024, but has yet to make a meaningful impact in Tennessee, dealing with poor quarterback play over parts of the past two seasons and missing ten games to injury in 2025. Perhaps no offense in the league looks different than the Titans since the signing of that deal, with three of the team's four leading receivers in 2025 being rookies and the team bringing in a new head coach and offensive coordinator to guide Cam Ward in 2026. The new regime recently added Wan'Dale Robinson in free agency, a move likely to push the 31-year-old Ridley into more of a situational role as Chimere Dike, Elic Ayomanor, and tight end Gunnar Helm all look to take a year-two leap.--Patrick McGrath

The Los Angeles Angels optioned second baseman Christian Moore to Triple-A Salt Lake on Saturday, per an announcement from the team. The 23-year-old Moore is considered one of the team's top prospects, but he hit just .175 across 43 plate appearances in Cactus League action and will start the 2026 season in the Minors. After starting the 2025 season in Double-A, Moore made his MLB debut in mid-June and hit .198/.284/.370 with seven home runs, 16 RBI, 20 runs scored, and three stolen bases across 184 plate appearances (53 games). While Moore walked at an impressive 10.3% rate, he also struck out at an unsustainably poor 33.7% clip. Swing-and-miss was an issue for Moore in the Minors as well, as he posted a 29% strikeout rate across 138 plate appearances at Triple-A. With Moore being optioned, Adam Frazier, Vaughn Grissom (hand), and Oswald Peraza appear to be battling for the Opening Day second base job. Moore could easily work his way back to the big leagues in 2026, but he will have to prove himself at Triple-A to begin the year.--Will Brady

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor finished 2025 as the RB2 despite a late-season injury to quarterback Daniel Jones that allowed defenses to stack the box against him for the final month of the season. He is currently valued around RB7 and coming off the board near the 3/4 turn in dynasty startups. Still only 27 years old and on pace for nearly 2,200 yards from scrimmage and 24 touchdowns prior to the Jones injury, Taylor is in play for the overall RB1 in 2026, making him an obvious buy for contenders or drafters starting with a win-now approach. Recent reports have indicated that Jones could be ready for the start of the season, and aside from the loss of Michael Pittman Jr., who was shipped to Pittsburgh for a late-round pick swap, the Colts offense will look quite similar to the unit that began 2025 on a historic tear en route to a 7-1 start.--Patrick McGrath

Top Colorado Rockies first base/outfield prospect Charlie Condon is unlikely to make the team's Opening Day roster, per Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post. The number three overall pick in the 2024 MLB Draft, Condon has absolutely raked so far in 2026 Spring Training action. Across 37 plate appearances in the Cactus League, the 22-year-old is hitting .419/.486/.806 with three home runs, nine RBI, and six runs scored. Condon also posted strong numbers across 433 plate appearances split between High-A and Double-A in 2025, slashing .268/.376/.444 with 14 home runs, 58 RBI, 59 runs scored, and two stolen bases. However, he's yet to reach Triple-A, and there's little incentive for the rebuilding Rockies to force him onto the Major League roster early in 2026. Swing-and-miss is also a potential red flag in Condon's profile, as he struck out in 28.3% of his Double-A plate appearances in 2025. Still, if Condon gets off to a hot start in the Minors, he could make his MLB debut sooner rather than later. He's unquestionably a player worth monitoring for redraft fantasy managers heading into 2026.--Will Brady

Titans running back Tony Pollard has quietly strung together four straight 1,200-plus-yard campaigns while scoring no fewer than five touchdowns. While Tennessee was one of the most aggressive spenders in the early waves of free agency, the backfield remains relatively unchanged from 2025. Pollard's role heading into 2026 again looks to carry underrated fantasy relevance, but there is no escaping the growing rumors tying Tennessee to Notre Dame prospect Jeremiyah Love with the 4th overall pick in the NFL Draft. With new offensive coordinator Brian Daboll's history of elevating quarterback play and increasing scoring opportunities, whoever lands the starting running back job for the Titans should find themselves in a suddenly attractive situation. Unfortunately for Pollard, the drafting of Love would all but signal the end of his week-to-week fantasy relevance.--Patrick McGrath

Running back David Montgomery, recently acquired via trade by the Houston Texans, has had his contract upgraded by the team, with the two-year deal now worth up to $16.5 million. The revised contract, which features a $6.5 million signing bonus and heavy per-game active roster bonuses, signals that the Texans view him as their clear starter following a season in which rookie Woody Marks led the team in carries, but no back topped 200 attempts or more than 13 carries per game. Playing in a supporting role to Pro-Bowler Jahmyr Gibbs in Detroit, Montgomery has also failed to reach the 200-carry mark in either of the past two seasons, giving him relatively fresh legs as he prepares for his age-29 campaign.--Patrick McGrath

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Zack Wheeler (shoulder) threw his first live batting practice session of the spring on Saturday, per Todd Zolecki of MLB.com. Zolecki reports that Wheeler is "zooming towards an April return" from the thoracic outlet surgery he underwent last September. The 35-year-old was his usual dominant self before getting injured in 2025, posting a 10-5 record with a 2.71 ERA, 0.94 WHIP, and 195 strikeouts across 149 2/3 innings (24 starts). Wheeler will start the 2026 season on the Injured List, but it sounds as though the veteran right-hander will be able to make his first appearance of the season before the end of April. Wheeler profiles as a fantasy SP1 when healthy, and his ADP will likely continue to rise in drafts leading up to Opening Day, barring any injury setbacks. UPDATE: Wheeler said he was more "in sync" on the mound on Saturday, with his fastball reaching 93 mph. He averaged 95.9 mph with his fastball before his injury in 2025.--Will Brady

Los Angeles Angels relief pitcher Robert Stephenson (shoulder, elbow) said there is "concern of further damage to his UCL," per Jeff Fletcher of the Southern California News Group. Fletcher reports that Stephenson is meeting with renowned specialist Dr. Keith Meister in hopes of "finding a solution that would allow him to pitch this year." It's potentially devastating news for Stephenson, who missed all of 2024 due to Tommy John surgery and pitched just 10 innings in 2025 as he battled thoracic outlet syndrome and nerve issues in his shoulder. If healthy, Stephenson might have been a dark-horse saves candidate in the Angels bullpen. Without him, veterans Kirby Yates, Jordan Romano, and Drew Pomeranz look like the favorites for the ninth-inning role in Los Angeles to open 2026.--Will Brady

Playing in parts of only nine games in 2025, Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin Jr. put up the worst statistical campaign of his nine-year career, recording personal lows in receptions and yards, while his two receiving touchdowns were the lowest since his rookie year in 2017. Entering 2026, the Buccaneers will be without future Hall of Famer Mike Evans for the first time in over a decade, opening a target vacuum that Godwin could be first in line to fill. Godwin missed the first three games of 2025, opening a window for first-round pick Emeka Egbuka to form an early rapport with Baker Mayfield, but the chemistry faded down the stretch, and it was Godwin who received the second-most looks behind Evans over the final month of the season. One more year removed from the brutal ankle injury that ended his 2024 season, Godwin should see his target share and raw opportunities spike to the pre-injury count that saw him top 1,000 yards for five straight seasons.--Patrick McGrath

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Josh Lowe (oblique) is back in the lineup at designated hitter for his team's Spring Training matchup against the Seattle Mariners. Lowe has managed just seven plate appearances this spring as he battles nagging oblique issues, but it appears as though he will have a chance to ramp up and be ready for Opening Day. Lowe is no stranger to oblique problems and injury issues in general, as he's reached 500 plate appearances just once in the last three years. The 28-year-old is looking to get his MLB career back on track after he struggled to a .220/.283/.366 line across 435 plate appearances with the Tampa Bay Rays in 2025. However, Lowe collected 11 home runs and 18 stolen bases even in a down year, and he profiles an intriguing power/speed threat for fantasy managers if he can ever get a run of extended health.--Will Brady

Cincinnati Reds second baseman Matt McLain has been tearing the cover off the baseball this spring. Easily the most productive player in the Cactus League, McLain owns a .543/.600/1.057 slash line with five home runs, 12 RBI, a 12.5% walk rate, a 10.0% strikeout rate, and 314 wRC+ through 147 spring contests. While it's dangerous to put much stock into spring training stats, these results offer fantasy managers plenty of reasons to be optimistic about McLain in 2026. He's due for a much-needed bounce-back year after posting 77 wRC+ with 15 homers and 18 steals in 2025. McLain has a very firm grasp on the starting second base job, so it's not like this stretch of hot performances will impact his role for the upcoming season. Still, it should offer more confidence to the Reds' coaching staff, fans, and fantasy managers. As it stands, McLain projects as the Reds' No. 2 hitter and ranks ninth among second basemen in RotoBaller's latest fantasy baseball rankings.--Andersen Pickard

A seventh-round selection in the 2025 NFL Draft, Jacksonville Jaguars running back LeQuint Allen Jr. did well to carve out any sort of role in his team's offense as a rookie. While Allen Jr. logged only 33 touches across 17 games, he played double-digit offensive snaps in 15 contests and seemingly earned the trust of his coaching staff in a third-down role. Former Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. recently signed with the New Orleans Saints in free agency, leaving a significant number of backfield touches in Jacksonville up for grabs heading into 2026. The Jaguars have a promising young back in Bhayshul Tuten and also signed former Washington Commanders rusher Chris Rodriguez Jr., both of whom could block off Allen Jr.'s path to early-down work. However, neither Tuten nor Rodriguez Jr. profiles as much of a receiver out of the backfield. Allen Jr. could emerge as Jacksonville's primary receiving back and may be worth rostering in deep dynasty formats heading into 2026.--Will Brady
