Ryan Weathers Looks Sharp in Spring Debut
New York Yankees left-hander Ryan Weathers looked good in his Grapefruit League debut with the Yankees on Wednesday, throwing 3 2/3 scoreless innings with no walks and five strikeouts against the Washington Nationals, according to Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News. In an effort to stay healthy in 2026 after two injury-riddled seasons, the 26-year-old southpaw has a new routine after working at Peak Kinetic Performance in the offseason. He eliminated some lifting patterns in the weight room and implemented more ground-based rolling exercises that focus on his spine. Weathers is hoping the changes he made in the offseason will keep him healthier, and he surely flashed his talent on Wednesday, topping out at a career-high 99.8 mph while averaging a 16-inch vertical break. The rest of his arsenal looked great, too, and he generated 12 whiffs. The former first-rounder has shown flashes, but injuries have held him back. His upside alone makes him worth a late-round dart throw in mixed fantasy leagues.
