Philadelphia Phillies corner infielder
Alec Bohm will "most likely" hit fourth, according to Todd Zolecki of MLB.com. Zolecki said that manager Rob Thomson indicated Bohm is the frontrunner for the cleanup spot, but he also mentioned
Adolis Garcia and
J.T. Realmuto as candidates in the mix to bat fourth. Bohm played 120 games last year, slashing .287/.331/.409 with 11 home runs, a 5.8% walk rate, a 16.3% strikeout rate, and 105 wRC+. He spent most of the season at the hot corner but also logged some appearances at first base, which is where he could end up eventually if infield prospect
Aidan Miller debuts and takes over at third. Hitting fourth creates plenty of RBI opportunities for Bohm, so he definitely carries some upside into the 2026 season. Still, he currently ranks as the #26 third baseman in RotoBaller's latest fantasy baseball draft rankings.

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher
Kyle Bradish is "expecting to be on some kind of innings limit in 2026," according to Matt Weyrich of the Baltimore Sun. Bradish recently recovered from Tommy John surgery, so the Orioles are going to closely monitor his workload to ensure he stays healthy and productive. He was sidelined from June 2024 to August 2025, and he was able to make six starts before the end of the regular season. Across those half-dozen outings, he posted a 2.45 FIP with 13.22 K/9, 2.81 BB/9, and 0.84 HR/9. His ground ball rate declined, but it came over a small sample size, and his results were still as impressive as ever before. Even with the Orioles managing his innings, Bradish projects as the team's ace and ranks as RotoBaller's #21 starting pitcher ahead of 2026 fantasy baseball drafts.

Houston Astros designated hitter
Yordan Alvarez (ankle) said that he is pain-free and back to 100 percent as spring training gets underway, according to Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle. "Right now I feel great," Alvarez said. "No pain right now." The slugger landed on the injured list with a left ankle sprain back in September, and he didn't return for the rest of the season. He had missed a previous portion of the campaign with right hand inflammation. Across just 48 games in 2025, he slashed .273/.367/.430 with six home runs, a 14.1% walk rate, a 16.6% strikeout rate, and 118 wRC+. He had posted at least 167 wRC+ in each of the three seasons before that, so it's safe to say that Alvarez is looking to get back to his fully-healthy, pre-2025 form. He currently ranks as the #11 outfielder in RotoBaller's latest fantasy baseball draft rankings for 2026.

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher
Zac Gallen said that he chose to re-sign for one year despite having several multi-year offers on the table from other organizations, according to Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com. "I've always bet on myself," Gallen told the media. "I felt like I owed it to myself, owed to my family, I even owed it to the organization, to the fans here to come back and have a good year." Gallen's free agency lasted into spring training, as he didn't re-sign with the Diamondbacks until Friday. The veteran starter is coming off a 33-start season, during which he posted a 4.50 FIP and 4.12 xFIP. He also had 8.20 K/9, 3.09 BB/9, and 1.45 HR/9 with a 43.6% home run rate. He slots right back into the Diamondbacks' No. 2 starter spot behind
Merrill Kelly.

Cincinnati Reds corner infielder
Sal Stewart is mostly playing first base and second base during spring training, manager Terry Francona told Charlie Goldsmith of FOX19. It's an interesting development given that Stewart played a mix of first and third base in his brief taste of MLB action last year, but the focus has shifted to keeping him on the right side of the infield. Goldsmith explained that
Matt McLain is the Reds' primary second baseman, but Stewart could play there when McLain is off or playing shortstop. He also reported that Triple-A manager Pat Kelly said second base might be Stewart's best position. It's encouraging to see that Stewart has defensive versatility, as it could help to get his bat into the lineup more often. While it came over a small sample size of 18 big-league games, Stewart impressed with a .255/.293/.545 slash line, five home runs, a 5.2% walk rate, a 25.9% strikeout rate, and 124 wRC+ last year. He currently ranks #21 among first basemen in RotoBaller's latest fantasy baseball draft rankings, but more consistent playing time could boost his stock.

Arizona Diamondbacks first baseman
Tyler Locklear (elbow, shoulder) is expected to be sidelined through at least the middle of May or early June, manager Torey Lovullo told Jack Sommers of SI.com. Locklear hasn't played since September when he landed on the injured list with left elbow inflammation. The young corner infielder was traded from Seattle to Arizona at the trade deadline last year, but he injured himself within the coming months after a collision on the field. He ultimately needed season-ending surgery on both his shoulder and elbow, and now, he's going to miss the start of the 2026 season. That's rough news for a fringe roster player who had been looking for any opportunity to make his mark. He struggled across 31 big-league games last year, slashing .175/.267/.262 with three home runs, an 8.6% walk rate, a 37.1% strikeout rate, and 52 wRC+. Presumably, he'll end up on the 60-day injured list, creating less competition at first base. Veteran first baseman
Carlos Santana should crack the starting lineup while
Ildemaro Vargas and
Tim Tawa offer depth at the position.

The Las Vegas Raiders are expected to hire Seattle Seahawks quarterbacks coach Andrew Janocko as their new offensive coordinator, sources told NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Janocko is in Vegas on Sunday, and a deal is expected to be finalized as early as Sunday. He's close with new Raiders head coach Klint Kubiak, who was previously the offensive coordinator for the Super Bowl-champion Seahawks. Janocko also worked with Kubiak in New Orleans and Minnesota, so they have a close bond. Vegas had one of the worst offenses in the NFL in 2025, ranking last in points scored (14.2), rushing yards per game (77.5), and total yards (245.2), and 26th in red-zone efficiency (50%). Kubiak is expected to call the offensive plays in 2026 in his first year as the head coach, but Janocko will be crucial in helping develop Indiana QB Fernando Mendoza, who is expected to go to the Raiders with the No. 1 overall pick in this year's NFL Draft.

The Seattle Seahawks are hiring San Francisco 49ers run-game-coordinator/tight ends coach Brian Fleury as their new offensive coordinator on Sunday, sources told Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network. Fleury has been a trusted assistant to 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan since 2019 and will now head to the NFC West rival to call plays for the defending Super Bowl champions. It was looking like Seattle would promote from within to replace Klint Kubiak, who departed to become the head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders. Fleury started his tenure in San Fran as a defensive quality-control coach and spent the next two years as an offensive quality-control coach before becoming the TEs coach in 2022. The 49ers run a version of the West Coast offense that Kubiak ran in Seattle, so the move to hire Fleury shouldn't represent a drastic scheme change for quarterback
Sam Darnold and the rest of the offense.

New York Yankees starting pitcher
Cam Schlittler (back) is expected to resume throwing from the mound on Tuesday. The Yankees have been cautious with Schlittler, who is currently dealing with back inflammation. Schlittler should be fine in the long term, but the team doesn't want to risk aggravating the issue. For the time being, Schlittler is expected to be fully ready to go in time for Opening Day. He's coming off an excellent rookie campaign in 2025. He posted a 2.96 ERA, 1.21 WHIP, and an 84/31 K/BB ratio in 14 starts. The 23-year-old is expected to be a mainstay in the Yankees' rotation in 2026.

Atlanta Braves pitcher
Hurston Waldrep (elbow) will visit with a doctor after experiencing elbow soreness following a live batting practice session. He underwent an MRI, which revealed loose bodies in his elbow, but no ligament damage. The visit with Dr. Keith Meister should help give the Braves a better timetable on when Waldrep will be able to pitch again. At the moment, it's unclear if the 23-year-old will be ready in time for Opening Day. Waldrep looked solid during his time with the Braves last season. He registered a 2.88 ERA, 1.18 WHIP, and a 55/22 K/BB ratio across 10 games (nine starts) in 2025. The Braves were hopeful Waldrep could make a bigger impact in 2026, but this elbow issue could be a setback.

St. Louis Cardinals infielders
JJ Wetherholt and
Nolan Gorman could be stationed at new primary positions in 2026. As of this weekend, Wetherholt is playing second base, while Gorman is taking reps at third base. Wetherholt has yet to make his MLB debut, but he should be in St. Louis soon. He has primarily been playing shortstop, but has seen some action at second base. It looks like the Cardinals would like Wetherholt to take over second base with the team trading
Brendan Donovan this offseason. As for Gorman, he came up as a second baseman, but has been transitioning to the hot corner. He played a career-high 54 games over there last season.
Nolan Arenado has been traded, so the spot is open full-time for Gorman. The Cardinals will likely move them around, but offseason trades have given these two players a chance to play full-time infield positions.

Miami Dolphins running back
Ollie Gordon II saw his name linked to fantasy waiver wires throughout the year, but he ultimately spent most of his rookie season playing second, or even third fiddle, to
De'Von Achane. With a new head coach and offensive coordinator set to take over in Miami, many have speculated whether the sub-190-pound Achane will continue to handle bell-cow duties. Unfortunately for Gordon, even if Jeff Hafley and Bobby Slowik choose to preserve Achane by moving to a more committee-based approach, 23-year-old
Jaylen Wright could stand in his way. After missing the first six weeks of the season as a result of injury and performance, Wright took over as the team's primary change-of-pace back behind Achane, out-touching Gordon 75 to 50. And when given work, Gordon's 2.8 yards per carry ranked among the league's worst. With Gordon's Doak Walker Award-winning season in 2023 now feeling a lifetime away, there were very few signs in 2025 that a sophomore breakout could be on its way.

New York Mets relief pitcher
Devin Williams is working hard to shake up his pitching repertoire this spring. According to Laura Albanese, Williams is incorporating a cutter and adding a gyro slider to his mix of pitches. The hope is that using the gyro slider will help protect his changeup. Williams has been throwing these pitches in bullpen sessions and will soon get a chance to use them versus live hitting. The 31-year-old is coming off the worst season of his career with the New York Yankees in 2025. He registered a 4.79 ERA, 1.12 WHIP, and a 90/25 K/BB ratio with 18 saves in 67 appearances. The Mets gave Williams over $50 million this offseason, so he's expected to be the primary closing option. The hope is that the addition of new pitches will help Williams bounce back in 2026.

Running back
Devin Singletary was the only New York Giants RB to play all 17 games in 2025, but he finished well behind
Tyrone Tracy Jr. in carries, receptions, and total yards, while lacking the efficiency of rookie
Cam Skattebo in both the running and passing game. Entering 2026 on the final year of the three-year pact he signed in 2024, he could be viewed as a cut candidate if Skattebo projects to enter camp fully healthy following a season-ending ankle injury. If Singletary does stay in New York, he projects as the third man in a rotation, with incoming head coach John Harbaugh having spent the past two seasons giving nearly all of his team's groundwork to
Derrick Henry. While nobody on the Giants' roster should rightfully be compared to Henry, the 28-year-old Singletary could easily find himself buried on a depth chart behind two more versatile runners.

Texas Rangers outfielder
Brandon Nimmo is expected to function as the leadoff hitter and play right field, according to manager Skip Schumaker. This was expected to happen, but it's nice to finally have confirmation on the situation. Nimmo was traded to the Rangers in the deal that sent
Marcus Semien to the New York Mets earlier this offseason. The left-handed slugger is hopeful to give a boost to this lineup after a strong campaign in 2025. Nimmo slashed .262/.324/.436 with 25 home runs, 92 RBI, and 13 steals in 155 games with the Mets last season. The 32-year-old is a consistent hitter and durable, with 150-plus games played in each of the last four seasons. His fantasy value should remain strong, especially with him hitting in the leadoff spot.

Denver Broncos wide receiver
Pat Bryant finished his rookie campaign with fewer than 400 yards and only one touchdown, but based on glimpses he showed in two abbreviated playoff appearances, he could see a much larger role in 2026. Having the dubious distinction of exiting both games early with injury, it's difficult to project how much of the game plan would continue to revolve around him, but Bryant touched the ball five times on a total of 12 postseason snaps. The Broncos have been tied to the receiver position in what looks to be a strong incoming draft class, but the only pass catcher currently on the roster who clearly projects ahead of Bryant is 30-year-old
Courtland Sutton. While
Troy Franklin and
Marvin Mims Jr. have both shown flashes at times in their young careers, Bryant seems the most likely to take the next step in 2026 and could be an important weapon for newly elevated offensive coordinator
Davis Webb.

New York Mets shortstop
Francisco Lindor (hand) recently underwent surgery on his left hamate bone. Lindor is back in the Mets camp now and is very optimistic that he'll be ready to play on Opening Day. The expectation is that Lindor will need about six weeks of recovery time after having surgery. He underwent surgery last Wednesday and believes he'll be ready in time for the regular season. This certainly seems like great news, but who knows if Lindor will truly be 100 percent healthy by then. His fantasy stock should still take a hit, but possibly being ready for Opening Day is fantastic news for the Mets.

Running back
J.K. Dobbins (foot) signed a one-year, $2.1 million deal with the Denver Broncos late in the 2025 offseason, and through the first 10 weeks of the season, he looked like one of the best values of the year. Dobbins ran for 772 yards and four touchdowns before going down to a Lisfranc injury that ultimately ended his season. Once again set to hit the open market, Dobbins has recently indicated a preference to return to Denver. Should he sign another short-term deal with the Broncos, he would likely be given the inside track to starting duties over second-round pick
RJ Harvey. While Harvey showed a knack for finding the end zone as a rookie, he could not come close to matching Dobbins' efficiency behind one of the premier offensive lines in the league, averaging 3.7 yards per carry to Dobbins' 5.0. Where Harvey truly excelled was in the passing game, and if Denver runs back the same pairing in 2026, it's difficult to envision another landing spot for Dobbins with more clearly defined roles or higher upside within what will likely be some form of committee.

Once viewed as the dynasty QB1, a string of disappointing seasons has sunk Arizona Cardinals quarterback
Kyler Murray's value to an all-time low, with him currently going outside the top 20 at the position in dynasty startups. While his relationship with the previous coaching staff led many to believe he'd taken his last snaps in Arizona after a soft benching to end his 2025 season, the Cardinals cleaned house this offseason, hiring a new head coach and offensive coordinator. Signs still point to Murray being released or traded before a portion of his contract becomes guaranteed in mid-March, but his status remains one of the biggest question marks of the offseason. With an uninspiring incoming quarterback draft class, Murray could be the first domino to fall in the trade/free agent market, but with so much uncertainty surrounding him, he remains a risky dynasty buy. Based on name value alone, his cost in a trade is likely still higher than his current startup placement reflects, and while his perceived value will ultimately rise if he finds a preferable landing spot, his asking cost may not. As such, he remains a hold in most dynasty leagues.

The Cleveland Browns are conducting in-person interviews with the Houston Texans' Cory Undlin and the Atlanta Falcons' Mike Rutenberg for their defensive-coordinator position this weekend, a source told Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer. Head coach Todd Monken could name his defensive coordinator in the next day or two. Undlin is Houston's defensive passing-game coordinator and has worked with the team since 2023. Before that, he was the secondary coach for the San Francisco 49ers, and he was also the Detroit Lions' defensive coordinator in 2020. Rutenberg is the Falcons' pass-game coordinator. Before joining Atlanta in 2025, he worked under defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich for four seasons as the linebackers coach with the Jets. Cleveland is looking to replace Jim Schwartz, who resigned after he was not named the Browns' head coach.

The Las Vegas Raiders are expected to promote run-game coordinator/defensive-line coach Rob Leonard to defensive coordinator, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Saturday. Leonard, who has worked directly with disgruntled All-Pro defensive end Maxx Crosby, has been a D-line coach since 2023. The Raiders will also retain Joe Woods as defensive passing-game coordinator, sources told ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Vegas finished 25th in points allowed (25.4) and 14th in total yards allowed (317.8) under former DC Patrick Graham and head coach Pete Carroll, while opponents converted 46.3% of their third-down attempts. The Raiders were solid against the run, though, allowing 3.9 yards per carry, which ranked fourth-best in the NFL. Leonard spent a season as an outside linebackers coach for the Baltimore Ravens in 2022 before joining the Raiders. He also coached for the Dolphins from 2019 to 2021 and for the New York Giants from 2013 to 2018.

Detroit Tigers manager A.J. Hinch said that infielder
Colt Keith will focus on third base and first base in spring training, according to Chris McCosky of the Detroit News. Keith will only return to second base if there are injury issues this year. The 24-year-old former fifth-round pick in 2020 spent most of his time at the keystone in his rookie season in 2024, but he played 24 games at second, 33 at third base, and 52 as the designated hitter for Detroit in 2025. Despite moving around the diamond last year, Keith was productive at the plate, slashing .256/.333/.413 with a .746 OPS, 13 home runs, 45 RBI, and 65 runs scored in 414 at-bats over 137 games played. The former top prospect must improve against left-handed pitchers (he had reverse splits), but with regular playing time and multi-position eligibility, he's a decent corner infield target in the later rounds of drafts.

Tampa Bay Rays right-handed reliever
Edwin Uceta (shoulder) will skip pitching in this year's World Baseball Classic due to a "little cranky" right shoulder, according to Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times. The good news is that the Rays are "very confident" that Uceta will be ready for Opening Day on March 26. The 28-year-old Dominican will play a key role at the back end of Tampa's bullpen this year and is expected to share high-leverage closing duties with
Griffin Jax and
Garrett Cleavinger now that
Pete Fairbanks is no longer in town. Manager Kevin Cash said the decision to keep Uceta out of the WBC was a precautionary move. In 76 innings last year, Uceta had a 3.79 ERA, 1.17 WHIP, one save, 21 holds, a career-high 103 strikeouts, and 27 walks in 70 appearances. His 38.7% whiff rate on his four-seam fastball ranked second overall in the big leagues, and he was just one of five relievers to reach 100 K's. While he may not rack up a ton of saves, Uceta will be useful for his ratios and holds.

Houston Astros infielder
Isaac Paredes said he'll work at first base, second base, and third base in camp this year, according to Chandler Rome of The Athletic. Paredes also said he'll be a 100% participant in activities this spring after tearing his hamstring last year. The 26-year-old has been the subject of trade rumors this offseason and could be a man without a position on Opening Day, with
Carlos Correa set to start at third base and
Jose Altuve moving back to second base full-time. Despite playing in only 102 games in 2025 in his first year in Houston due to his hamstring injury, Paredes hit .254/352/.458 with an .809 OPS, 20 home runs, 53 RBI, and 53 runs scored in 438 plate appearances. His hamstring recovery could still be an issue, but the biggest setback for his 2026 fantasy value is his uncertain playing time if he sticks with the Astros. RotoBaller currently has him ranked as the No. 14 fantasy third baseman.

Boston Red Sox first baseman
Triston Casas (knee) will do drills independently when the team holds its first full-squad spring training workout on Sunday, according to Ian Browne of MLB.com. Casas has some catching up to do after tearing his left patellar tendon on May 2 of last year. Offseason acquisition
Willson Contreras has taken his primary position (first base), but Casas thinks the BoSox will find a place for him when he's fully healthy. "When I'm healthy, I fit on any team," said Casas. Browne writes that designated hitter could be a "nice fallback" for Casas once he's 100% healthy. However, Boston could need the DH spot to deploy whichever player can't fit in the outfield on a given day. Casas said that medical professionals told him his injury typically takes a year of full recovery, which would put him on track to play again around May 1. The Red Sox's lineup lacks power, so they could use Casas' bat in their lineup, but the 26-year-old might not be ready for Opening Day, and he might not have a full-time role when he makes his season debut.

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander
Brandon Woodruff (lat) said he finally feels fully healthy this spring after missing all or parts of the last three years due to a 2023 shoulder surgery and a lat strain that ended his 2025 campaign early, according to Michael Reynolds of MLB.com. Although the Brewers are being cautious with Woodruff in camp, manager Pat Murphy fully expects Woodruff to be ready for the start of the 2026 season. "It feels like I'm finally to the point where I can do stuff and I just don't have to think about my shoulder, which is a good thing," Woodruff said. The 33-year-old two-time All-Star showed diminished velocity upon his return last year, but other than that, he was excellent, going 7-2 with a 3.20 ERA, 0.91 WHIP, and 83 K's in his 12 starts. He showed last year that he can still keep hitters off balance. He'll be a high-risk, high-reward No. 3 starting pitcher target in fantasy baseball drafts.

Boston Red Sox catcher
Carlos Narvaez will be the team's starting catcher again in 2026, according to Christopher Smith of MassLive.com. Manager Alex Cora revealed on Saturday that Narvaez's knee started to bother him in just the third game of the season and his first start behind the plate on March 29 against the Texas Rangers. "He was banged up the whole season," Cora said. Narvaez had a left-knee meniscesctomy right after the 2025 season ended. He missed three straight games from Aug. 6-9 but avoided going on the injured list during his rookie campaign. The 27-year-old was still one of the best defensive catchers in the league, although his offensive numbers tailed off in the second half. The Venezuelan backstop finished with a .241/.306/.419 slash line .726 OPS, 15 homers, and 50 RBI in 118 regular-season games. Narvaez has decent offensive skills for a catcher, but his poor plate discipline should keep his ceiling on the lower side as a No. 2 catcher in fantasy.

The Philadelphia Phillies were seeking lineup protection for first baseman
Bryce Harper and more right-handed pop this offseason, which is why they brought in outfielder
Adolis Garcia in free agency on a one-year deal. NBC Sports' Cole Weintraub writes that the Phillies are hoping Garcia can return to his 2022-23 form in Texas and slide into the team's cleanup spot. However, a cold spring from Garcia could push designated hitter
Kyle Schwarber to the four-hole after he had a .955 OPS in 2025. The 32-year-old Garcia will start in right field in his first year in Philly, but he's a gamble in fantasy baseball drafts after posting a sub-.700 OPS in back-to-back seasons. His .675 OPS last year ranked 117th out of 123 qualified hitters, and he also hit fewer than 20 homers for the first time in his career. Still, there are worse players to take a chance on in a favorable hitting environment with plenty of RBI opportunities. Remember, Garcia hit 39 homers and drove in 107 runs just two seasons ago.

Atlanta Braves outfielder
Jurickson Profar (abdomen) underwent sports hernia surgery in November, and the procedure required six weeks of recovery, according to Mark Bowman of MLB.com. Profar doesn't have any restrictions in spring training, though. He felt discomfort in September and again when he began his offseason workouts, prompting him to have surgery. Profar tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs in March of last year and was suspended for 80 games in his first year in Atlanta. But when he was on the field, he was solid, slashing .245/.353/.434 with 14 home runs and nine stolen bases over 371 plate appearances. The 32-year-old veteran switch-hitter is expected to be the Braves' primary designated hitter in 2026. Profar is in a favorable home park and still has elite plate discipline, but fantasy managers should not expect a return to his 2024 numbers with the Padres.

In 34 starts at the site, Logano has one win, an average finish of 18.7, and has 11 top-10 finishes. At drafting tracks last season, Logano has two top-20 finishes in six events at the track type. Despite leading in every Daytona Cup race dating back to 2018, Logano has a history of struggling to finish towards the front in most drafting track events. With his starting position being so close to the front, Logano is not recommended to be used in DFS this week.
