Spring Performances 3/1/2026 – 3/11/2026, by Position (MLB Fantasy Baseball)

Catcher (C)

Willson Contreras — Red Sox
Contreras flexed legit early power on March 1, crushing his second spring homer—a three-run shot—while stacking a two-hit day. The combination of loud contact and production (HR, 3 RBI) reads like a hitter already in regular-season mode. He’s tracking as a core power bat in this lineup and a premium fantasy catcher.

Logan O’Hoppe — Angels
O’Hoppe went deep March 1 with a solo shot, part of a first-inning back-to-back with Vaughn Grissom. He followed on March 3 with an RBI single, a quieter note but one that still matters—consistent run production early in camp. If the power-plus-RBI drumbeat keeps going, he has a real path to jumping a tier in fantasy as the Angels’ primary catcher.

Edgar Quero — White Sox
Quero popped his first spring homer March 1 against the Cubs, a meaningful checkpoint for a young catcher still building his offensive résumé. It’s one swing, but it’s the kind that underlines developing game power and keeps his name moving in the right direction. Dynasty-wise, he’s firmly in the “track closely” bucket.

Samuel Basallo — Orioles
Basallo delivered a two-run double on March 1, cashing in with extra-base damage in a tight Baltimore win. The box line (2B, 2 RBI) fits the scouting vibe: advanced hitting ability showing up against real competition. He remains a high-upside fantasy prospect, and steady spring impact only turns the volume up.

James McCann — Diamondbacks
McCann chipped in a timely RBI single for Arizona on March 3 in an exhibition vs. Mexico, a small moment but the exact kind of veteran contribution that keeps you in the mix. It’s early, yet run-producing contact is a clean way to reinforce his case as a steady option behind the plate. If the bat stays useful, the playing-time path—and late-round fantasy utility—gets clearer.

Tristin English — Braves
English delivered a loud March 5 swing, ripping a three-run double against the Blue Jays. That’s real, game-changing extra-base damage for a catcher battling for a roster spot, and it’s exactly the type of moment that earns you more looks. If he keeps driving the ball like this, he’ll stay in the mix as an offensive bench/backup option.

Francisco Álvarez — Mets
Álvarez delivered a loud March 10 swing, launching a two-run homer against the Cardinals. It’s the cleanest summary of his fantasy appeal: power from the catcher spot, plus real run-production impact when he connects. If he’s already driving in runs like that this late in camp, the primary-catcher value looks easy to buy.

First Baseman (1B)

Lenyn Sosa — White Sox
Sosa put together one of the louder lines of March 1: 2-for-3 with a homer, a double, an RBI, and a run scored. That’s not just a good day—it’s role-pressure production with real extra-base impact. If he strings together more of this, he’ll make it hard for the club to keep his bat in a smaller lane.

Kyle Manzardo — Guardians
Manzardo made a statement on March 3 by detonating a grand slam against the Dodgers. The write-up frames it as power that can play in an everyday role push, and that’s the key takeaway—he’s trying to force starter usage with impact contact. In deeper leagues, this is exactly the kind of profile that can turn into cheap, bankable pop if the job sticks.

Rowdy Tellez — Team Mexico
Tellez delivered an RBI single for Team Mexico on March 3 vs. the Diamondbacks, doing the simple job of turning an at-bat into a run. He’s known for power, so it’s notable when the early spring notes are about driving in runs and finding offensive rhythm. If the timing is there, the fantasy relevance follows—especially if he lands a meaningful lineup spot.

Jeimer Candelario — Angels
Candelario left the yard on March 3 for his first home run of the spring, the exact kind of early power flash you want from a middle-of-the-order bat. The write-up frames him as a key source of pop for this lineup, and that’s the fantasy hook—power plays if the everyday role holds. With mention of first base or third base, the path is about staying in the lineup often enough to let the slug show up.

Dominic Smith — Blue Jays
Smith went power shopping on March 5, launching a two-run homer against Atlanta. For a player trying to secure a role, that early-spring thump is a clean argument for more at-bats and a clearer path to playing time. In deeper formats, he’s the kind of corner-infield name that becomes relevant if the roster decision breaks his way.

Charlie Condon — Rockies
Condon launched a home run on March 3 with a 115.3 mph exit velocity, a loud measured-power note even by spring standards. When the contact quality is that extreme, it’s not just “he homered”—it’s “the raw power is real.” He’s a prospect to track closely in homer/OBP-focused formats if these impact swings keep showing up.

Second Baseman (2B)

Nick Gonzales — Team Mexico
Gonzales came through with a two-run double for Team Mexico on March 3 vs. Arizona, flashing the extra-base damage that changes innings. The write-up sells it as a potential “breakout spring” type signal, and the logic is clean: run-driving contact plus opportunity can move him quickly up the pecking order. If the playing time trends up, he’s the kind of middle-infield bat that sneaks into fantasy relevance.

José Tena — Nationals
Tena made his March 5 note count, crushing a two-run homer against the Mets. Power from a middle-infield profile always turns heads, and it reads like a player trying to elbow into more opportunities in a crowded infield picture. If the pop shows up more than once, the fantasy “watch list” tag becomes legitimate.

Christian Cairo — Phillies
Cairo left the yard on March 5 with a solo homer against the Red Sox, putting some extra-base authority on the board. He may be deeper on the organizational ladder, but spring is where you buy attention with swings like this. Keep showing power and the long-term prospect/fantasy relevance starts to look less like a footnote.

Jorge Polanco — Mets
Polanco went deep on March 10 vs. St. Louis with a solo homer, a tidy reminder that pop can still be part of his middle-infield value. For fantasy purposes, those home-run contributions matter when they’re coming from a spot that often gets filled with empty batting average. If he keeps showing this kind of damage, he profiles as a steady, category-friendly option.

Ji Hwan Bae — Mets
Bae delivered an RBI triple on March 10 vs. the Cardinals, the kind of extra-base hit that puts speed and pressure into the same play. The fantasy hook in the note is clear: if he can combine this kind of run-creation with a regular role, he offers a useful speed-driven profile. Spring reps that turn into triples are a good way to keep forcing that conversation.

Eduardo Espinal — Dodgers
Espinal had the kind of spring box score that jumps off the page on March 5 vs. the Reds: two homers and six RBIs, totaling eight bases. That’s a massive one-game power spike, and it’s exactly how you force yourself onto the radar and up an org depth chart. If he keeps showing this kind of impact, he becomes a legitimate deep-league watch—even if the role isn’t defined yet.

Zack Gelof — Athletics
Gelof went 2-for-4 on March 10 with an RBI double in an A’s Cactus League win, continuing to look like a lineup fixture rather than a spring mirage. The note leans into what fantasy managers care about: extra-base impact from a spot that can be painfully thin. If he’s driving balls into gaps like this heading into the season, the upside at second base is very real.

Third Baseman (3B)

Alex Bregman — Cubs
Bregman checked the early-spring boxes on March 1: first homer of camp, two hits in two at-bats, and a walk. He followed that up March 3 by launching a solo home run for Team USA in an exhibition blowout vs. the Giants—more evidence the power is online early. The takeaway is boring in the best way: veteran timing looks intact and the floor remains high.

Gunnar Henderson — Team USA
Henderson ripped a two-run double on March 3 vs. the Giants, delivering the kind of loud extra-base contact that plays in any setting. The note fits the broader idea in the write-up: his all-around offensive game shows up quickly when the lights are on, even in exhibitions. If he’s already driving the baseball with authority, the spring “ready to build” storyline has teeth.

Brett Baty — Mets
Baty’s March 5 was a real checkpoint: first hit of the spring went for a two-run homer, and he also logged his outfield debut vs. Washington. That blend of early power plus added versatility is exactly how you strengthen an everyday-role case. He later added an RBI single on March 10 vs. St. Louis, and the steady run production keeps the third-base competition pressure on.

Max Muncy — Dodgers
Muncy notched his first spring homer on March 5 against the Reds, part of a three-homer inning, and he drove in two in that same game. For a veteran slugger, the early takeaway is simple: the power switch is on and the familiar RBI profile is right there with it. When Muncy is already lifting the ball with authority, the season-long fantasy value looks safely intact.

Trey Lipscomb — Nationals
Lipscomb chipped in an RBI double on March 5 vs. the Mets, another clean extra-base note that plays in a role battle. It’s the kind of spring at-bat that supports a “useful infield piece” case—drive in runs, don’t give away opportunities. If he keeps producing in these moments, he’ll keep himself in the playing-time conversation.

Coby Mayo — Orioles
Mayo erupted on March 10 vs. the Astros with a four-hit, five-RBI day, including an RBI single, and the note ties it to a scorching spring line: .500 (13-for-26) with 10 RBIs. That’s not just “hot”—that’s roster-pressure production with real volume behind it, especially with the write-up framing him as pushing for an Opening Day roster spot in a crowded infield. If he breaks camp with the big club, he’s the kind of early-season waiver target who can matter quickly.

Brady House — Nationals
House made his March 10 swing count, going deep and driving in two in a Nationals win over the Marlins. For a top prospect, that’s the kind of “power shows up in-game” note you want on the spring ledger. He may still be a longer-term timeline per the write-up, but homers with RBIs are exactly how dynasty value keeps climbing.

Cam Smith — Astros
Smith added an RBI ground-rule double on March 10 vs. Baltimore, another solid piece in a spring that’s been productive overall. The note gives the broader context: a .318 average (7-for-22) with a 1.014 OPS, suggesting he’s consistently doing damage and getting on base. If he keeps stacking extra-base results like this, the playing-time push at third base becomes harder to ignore in deeper leagues.

Kazuma Okamoto — Blue Jays
Okamoto crushed a 431-foot homer on March 3 with a 103.4 mph exit velocity, and the note adds ongoing quality of contact: a 71% hard-hit rate with a 92.2 mph average exit velocity. That’s exactly the kind of hard-contact profile you want to see in an MLB transition—power plus consistent impact, not just a one-off blast. If he’s earning real playing time, he’s immediately relevant in deeper fantasy setups.

Nick Senzel — Reds
Senzel clipped a solo homer in the ninth inning on March 5 vs. the Dodgers, a late-game power note that still counts the same on a spring ledger. It’s a small sample, but it’s a clean reminder he can leave the yard when he gets something to hit. If he keeps producing loud contact, the playing-time case gets easier to argue as camp turns.

Shortstop (SS)

Vaughn Grissom — Angels
Grissom joined the March 1 fireworks with a homer, going back-to-back with Logan O’Hoppe in the first inning. It’s a strong sign for an infielder trying to solidify his footing in the Angels’ lineup—power showing up early matters. Keep the spring production steady and the playing-time math gets a lot friendlier.

Miguel Rojas — Dodgers
Rojas popped a two-run homer on March 3 vs. Cleveland, a jolt of impact offense from a player more often valued for steadiness than thump. The write-up frames it as a welcome power sign for L.A., and that’s fair—any middle-infield pop plays. For fantasy, it’s the kind of depth-note that matters if you’re scraping for MI production.

Jordan Lawlar — Diamondbacks
Lawlar legged out an RBI triple for Arizona on March 3 in an exhibition vs. Mexico, pairing extra-base impact with run production. For a highly regarded prospect fighting for a significant role, that’s the exact developmental breadcrumb you want—speed shows up, and the bat drives the gap. A spring where he keeps stacking these moments can push him into the fantasy-relevant conversation fast.

Jefferson Rojas — Cubs
Rojas went yard on March 4 with a solo homer, a clean signal that the developing power is showing up in game action. For a Cubs prospect, extra-base impact is the separator that can speed up the climb. Dynasty players don’t need to overreact—but they should log the power notes when they surface.

James Triantos — Cubs
Triantos added an RBI single on March 4, doing the simple but valuable thing: turning a spring at-bat into a run. It’s not a loud toolsy headline, but it supports the idea that he can drive in runs and contribute within an infield mix. Strong, steady offensive reps like this are how a prospect keeps climbing the depth chart.

Yoeilin Cespedes — Red Sox
Cespedes produced one of the weirder highlights of March 5, hitting a “Little League” two-run home run against the Phillies. The novelty is fun, but the real point is that he’s finding ways to impact the scoreboard as a young prospect. He’s still a longer-term play, yet spring flashes like this are how future fantasy names start getting tracked.

Seaver King — Nationals
King recorded an RBI double on March 5 vs. the Mets, pairing run production with extra-base impact. For a prospect trying to make noise, that’s a strong, simple signal—he’s driving the ball when he gets a chance. Stack more gap damage and the long-term fantasy intrigue keeps climbing.

Tommy Troy — Diamondbacks
Troy stayed red-hot on March 4, going 3-for-4 and lacing a single clocked at 105.0 mph exit velocity. The broader spring line in the note is loud: a .524 average with a 1.238 OPS (11-for-21) and hits in seven of nine games, which is consistent impact, not a one-off. Add in the listed ability to move around (2B/SS/CF), and you’ve got a prospect pushing his timeline with both bat and versatility.

Ronny Mauricio — Mets
Mauricio laced an RBI double on March 9, flashing the extra-base damage that keeps his upside interesting at shortstop. The note frames it as power potential that can show up from a middle-infield spot, and that’s the fantasy draw. If he’s driving balls into gaps like this while competing for opportunity, he stays firmly on the high-upside watch list.

Kaelen Culpepper — Twins
Culpepper had a clean March 11, going 2-for-2 with a run scored and an RBI against the Tigers. It’s a simple, efficient “did damage every time up” day that fits an all-around offensive profile—on base, driving in a run, crossing the plate. For deeper dynasty formats, these steady spring contact notes are how a future middle-infield option starts building real momentum.

Outfielder (OF)

Braden Montgomery — White Sox
Montgomery’s March 1 line jumped off the page: 2-for-3 with a home run and a triple. That’s the exact blend you want to see from a power/speed prospect—multiple extra-base impacts in one afternoon. With his prospect pedigree, spring days like this keep the dynasty priority tag firmly attached.

Jonatan Clase — Blue Jays
Clase went a clean 3-for-3 on March 1 and drove in two with a two-run double. A perfect day at the plate is exactly how you force the conversation when you’re battling for an outfield spot. If this kind of on-base pressure continues, his fantasy appeal—especially in OBP-oriented formats—gets real interesting.

Luke Raley — Mariners
Raley’s first spring homer on Feb. 28 wasn’t a cheap one: 107.7 mph off the bat and 438 feet in distance. The raw power is unmistakable when he squares it, and this is the kind of batted-ball note that matters even in March. If the playing time is there, he’s a legitimate late-round pop target.

Konnor Griffin — Pirates
Griffin stayed hot March 1 with another spring home run, and the later details are even louder. On March 3 he crushed a 440-foot shot at 111.2 mph—one of three homers he’s hit this spring—and the note adds that 7 of his 12 batted balls have topped 100 mph. That’s elite raw power showing up repeatedly, exactly the kind of spring signal long-term fantasy investors chase.

Jac Caglianone — Royals
Caglianone has been a Statcast headline this spring, stacking eye-opening exit-velocity notes: a 120.2 mph double, a 116.5 mph double, and a 115.2 mph homer that traveled 460 feet. The takeaway is simple—this is top-shelf raw power showing up in measured, undeniable ways. If that kind of contact becomes even semi-regular, the future fantasy impact starts looking enormous.

Heston Kjerstad — Orioles
Kjerstad racked up three hits on March 1, the kind of straightforward production that plays in any evaluation. It supports the idea that the bat-to-ball is in a good place and he’s carrying real offensive consistency this spring. In a deep lineup, games like this help him make a louder case for regular run.

Roman Anthony — Team USA
Anthony first showed off the pop on March 3 with a two-run homer in Team USA’s exhibition vs. the Giants, an early “loud tools” moment in a high-visibility spot. He doubled down on March 9 with a three-run blast in a Team USA game, clocked at 105.5 mph and 417 feet. When a prospect keeps pairing production with measured power like that, the dynasty stock doesn’t just rise—it accelerates.

Alek Thomas — Team Mexico
Thomas knocked an RBI single for Team Mexico on March 3 vs. Arizona, doing his part to cash in an opportunity. The write-up’s point is straightforward: he’s trying to lock down consistent outfield run, and producing in these reps helps. If the bat is steady enough to keep him on the field, the fantasy outlook stabilizes.

Ryan Waldschmidt — Diamondbacks
Waldschmidt drove in a run with an RBI groundout on March 3 vs. Mexico, pushing his early-spring total to five RBIs in six games. The production is doing the talking right now—he keeps finding ways to bring runs home, even without a highlight swing every time. That consistent RBI pace is exactly how a prospect turns into an early-camp sleeper note.

Jacob Robson — Team Canada
Robson tagged a solo homer on March 3 vs. the Blue Jays, helping spark a four-run eighth inning for Team Canada. One swing doesn’t rewrite a projection, but it does put his name on the board as someone capable of providing pop in limited opportunities. If that power shows up again, the deep-league bench/call-up appeal starts to look less theoretical.

Vance Honeycutt — Orioles
Honeycutt homered again on March 4 and the note is as loud as it gets: four spring homers in four at-bats, the most in MLB Spring Training. That’s an absurd power spike, and even with the obvious small-sample caveat, it forces attention. If the club keeps giving him chances, the fantasy upside conversation gets real in a hurry.

Christian Yelich — Brewers
Yelich went deep on March 4 with a solo shot, a straightforward reminder that the veteran power is still very much part of the package. The write-up frames a strong spring as a potential rebound signal, and that’s the key fantasy read. If the ball is carrying for him now, draft rooms will start adjusting quickly.

Rhylan Thomas — Angels
Thomas launched a solo homer on March 3, a notable power check for an Angels outfielder trying to earn more looks. For prospects, these are the swings that buy additional reps and keep you in the conversation as camp rolls on. If he keeps driving the ball, the opportunity count usually follows.

Jared Sundstrom — Mariners
Sundstrom hit his first homer of the spring on March 5 against the Padres, an early power check for Seattle’s No. 17 prospect. It’s the kind of simple milestone that matters for a young outfielder trying to separate himself in camp. If the extra-base impact keeps showing up, he starts to look like a real sleeper in deeper prospect formats.

Christian Franklin — Nationals
Franklin added an RBI single on March 5 vs. the Mets, a straightforward run-producing rep that helps a prospect build spring momentum. The box-score detail is limited, but the important part is he cashed in an opportunity. In camps like this, stacking “productive outs and hits” is how you keep getting penciled in.

Otto Kemp — Phillies
Kemp delivered an RBI double on March 5 vs. the Red Sox, a clean extra-base swing that shows he can drive the ball in game action. For a player trying to earn roster consideration or more opportunity, that kind of gap power matters. Keep tagging doubles and the organization has to keep paying attention.

Alan Roden — Twins
Roden stuffed the March 4 stat line vs. Team Puerto Rico, going 3-for-3 with a 369-foot triple and two singles while scoring three runs. The note adds real context: he entered the day leading the Twins with seven hits in 14 at-bats, and this only boosted the case for an Opening Day roster spot. If he keeps getting on base and creating runs like this, he’ll move from spring story to actionable fantasy pickup quickly.

Juan Soto — Dominican Republic
Soto went yard on March 4 vs. the Tigers, a solo shot clocked at 102.7 mph exit velocity and 409 feet to put the Dominican Republic ahead 3–1. It’s the classic early-spring reminder: the power shows up on schedule, and the damage is measured and real. When Soto is already driving the ball like this, the top-shelf fantasy profile stays exactly where it belongs.

Nick Castellanos — Padres
Castellanos singled in a run on March 6 vs. the Cubs, and the bigger note is the full spring line attached: 7-for-21 (.333) with a 1.011 OPS. That’s steady, ready-to-go production with consistent contact behind it. If he’s already stacking this kind of overall line, the “reliable power/RBI bat” fantasy expectation stays firmly intact.

Mike Tauchman — Mets
Tauchman delivered an RBI double on March 7 vs. the Cardinals, a nice extra-base contribution from a player often framed as a fourth-outfielder type. It’s the kind of spring result that helps you stick in a bench role—drive in a run, don’t overcomplicate it. In very deep formats, those occasional RBI/extra-base spurts can be usable when the matchups line up.

Joshua Baez — Cardinals
Baez went deep March 7 against the Mets with a solo homer, a clean flash of the extra-base pop that keeps a young outfielder interesting. The write-up frames it as a glimpse of offensive upside amid roster competition, and that’s the right read—power plays if it shows up consistently. For deep-league and prospect formats, swings like this are how the sleeper file gets opened.

Miguel Ugueto — Cardinals
Ugueto also homered March 7 vs. the Mets, adding a solo shot of his own. For players fighting for attention, a spring homer is the simplest loud signal you can send—one swing, instant visibility. If he can pair more contact with that power flash, the deeper fantasy-prospect relevance starts to build.

Zac Veen — Rockies
Veen launched a monster on March 3: a 468-foot homer with a 113.3 mph exit velocity. That’s the kind of measured power that reminds you why he’s been viewed as a high-upside talent in the Rockies system. If this spring keeps producing loud contact like that, the path back toward meaningful MLB opportunity—and future fantasy juice—gets easier to buy.

Josh Farmelo — Mariners
Farmelo put together a loud extra-base day on March 4 vs. the Giants, roping a double and a triple for five total bases. That’s the kind of “impact contact + on-base ability” combination that can bump a prospect’s standing in a hurry. If he keeps finding gaps like this, the promotion/roster-spot chatter tends to follow.

Zack Ehrhard — Reds
Ehrhard showed a little bit of everything March 5 vs. the Dodgers, doubling and swiping a base. That power-plus-speed mix is exactly how you carve out a useful profile, even if the headline stats aren’t massive yet. If the legs and extra-base contact both keep showing up, he becomes a sneaky name in deeper fantasy/prospect pools.

Nelson Velázquez — Cardinals
Velázquez went deep March 10 vs. the Mets with a solo homer, and the note ties it to a strong overall spring mark: a 1.116 OPS. That’s the kind of power-driven production that keeps you firmly in the Opening Day roster mix. If the bat continues to show this much thump, he’s a legitimate late draft-day power swing in deeper leagues.

Carson Benge — Mets
Benge drove in two with a two-run single on March 9, continuing a spring line called out as .391 with a .918 OPS. The write-up frames him as competing for the Mets’ right-field spot, and this kind of steady run production is how you win those battles. If the roster path clears, he’s a real late-round sleeper type to keep on speed dial.

Daylen Lile — Nationals
Lile popped a homer on March 10 and also drove in a run, giving the Nationals a quick jolt of impact offense. For an outfield prospect, that one-swing power is the type of developmental signal that matters, even if more minor-league time is still expected. If the pop keeps showing up in camp, the long-term fantasy appeal—especially in OBP/power builds—stays strong.

Lane Thomas — Nationals
Thomas homered on March 10 and also drove in a run, a crisp veteran reminder that the power can show up in bunches. The write-up frames a strong spring as a positive indicator heading into the season, and that’s the fantasy angle—steady everyday usage with category juice. If he’s already leaving the yard, the floor for another useful year looks pretty sturdy.

Starting Pitcher (SP)

Grant Rogers — Blue Jays
Rogers was spotless on March 1: three perfect innings and three strikeouts. Retiring everyone you face while still missing bats is as clean a command/efficiency snapshot as you can ask for in spring. He’s the kind of pitching prospect who can turn “deep sleeper” into a real storyline if he keeps stacking outings like this.

Chris Paddack — Marlins
Paddack fired two shutout innings on March 1 and punched out three, helping set the tone for a strong combined staff effort. The key here is the shape of the outing: efficient, clean, and with swing-and-miss (2.0 IP, 0 ER, 3 K). If he keeps looking this crisp, the re-establishing campaign is on schedule.

Clay Holmes — Mets
Holmes went four frames on March 1 and allowed just one run while striking out four in his second spring start. For a pitcher typically tagged as a reliever, the extended workload plus strike-throwing effectiveness stands out (4.0 IP, 1 ER, 4 K). If this usage continues, he’s worth tracking for deeper-league value tied to role flexibility.

Freddy Peralta — Brewers
Peralta carved up the Mets on March 1 with three flawless innings, allowing no hits and no earned runs. It’s the kind of crisp, no-traffic outing that screams “in-season form” this early, and it reinforces the frontline-starter label. When he’s this clean from pitch one, the fantasy ceiling stays comfortably high.

Drew Zimmermann — Cardinals
Zimmermann logged an efficient March 2 outing vs. the Marlins: 2.0 innings, one hit allowed, no earned runs, and one strikeout. The headline is simple—limited baserunners, no damage—which is exactly what he needs while competing for a staff role. Stack a few more clean looks like this and the rotation/bullpen case gets easier to make.

Framber Valdez — Astros
Valdez opened his spring on March 2 vs. the Nationals with three scoreless innings and three strikeouts. Clean frames plus missed bats is the exact combination you want to see early, and it’s why he stays parked in the “reliable fantasy starter” tier. If the command looks this stable out of the gate, the floor is doing its job.

Kevin Gausman — Blue Jays
Gausman tossed two scoreless innings on March 3 in an exhibition vs. Team Canada, an early reminder of how quickly he can get into efficient cruise control. The write-up leans on the obvious point: a healthy, clean spring matters for him, and this was a good start. With his strikeout profile, these low-stress outings are exactly what you want stacking up.

Paul Skenes — Team USA
Skenes went three innings on March 3 vs. the Giants, allowing one run on one hit while striking out four, and he finished by retiring his last nine batters. That’s a sharp line that reads like command catching up to elite stuff in real time. The write-up’s conclusion holds: he’s priced like a fantasy ace, and this debut backed it up.

Roki Sasaki — Dodgers
Sasaki struck out two in his March 3 spring start vs. the Guardians, with the note focusing on the swing-and-miss even without a full stat line. When that’s what gets mentioned, it tells you the stuff is popping early. Even in limited spring innings, the strikeouts are the breadcrumb fantasy players are watching for.

George Klassen — Angels
Klassen punched out four on March 3, a clean swing-and-miss note that matters for a highly ranked Angels prospect. The write-up frames it correctly: missing bats is the separator, and it’s the trait that can fast-track a pitcher toward rotation consideration. If the strikeouts keep coming in short spring looks, he becomes a legitimate stash watch.

Brandon Sproat — Brewers
Sproat impressed March 4 with four strikeouts, and the note points to command plus the ability to overpower hitters. That combo is exactly what a pitcher needs when he’s pushing for a rotation seat—flashy stuff without free passes. If he keeps stacking strikeout outings, the case for real opportunities gets harder to ignore.

Edward Cabrera — Cubs
Cabrera struck out two on March 4, and the louder note came from his catcher Moisés Ballesteros: “Every pitch is nasty.” That kind of in-game praise speaks to the quality of the arsenal—especially with the changeup getting singled out—and it’s why the strikeout upside keeps pulling people in. If he’s landing enough of it to compete for a rotation spot, fantasy managers should stay ready.

Zebby Matthews — Twins
Matthews logged another strong one on March 4 vs. Team Puerto Rico: four innings, one earned run on three hits and a walk, with three strikeouts. The fastball reportedly touched 98 mph, and he generated eight swings and misses on 56 pitches—real indicators the stuff is playing, not just the results. With the note citing two earned runs over 8.1 innings across three spring appearances, he’s making a real rotation case and creeping into sleeper/waiver relevance.

Kodai Senga — Mets
Senga debuted March 7 with 2 2/3 innings, allowing two runs on three hits with two strikeouts and no walks. It’s not a spotless line, but no free passes is a useful early marker while he builds and refines the Ghost Forkball. If the command stays this clean as the workload ramps, the high-strikeout, ace-adjacent fantasy case remains intact.

Kyle Leahy — Cardinals
Leahy was dominant on March 7, firing four perfect innings and striking out five in his third spring start. A spotless outing with that many punchouts is a loud signal—command plus bat-missing in the same package. Whether it points him toward a rotation look or a leverage role, the deeper-league fantasy curiosity is warranted if this keeps up.

Cam Schlittler — Yankees
Schlittler’s first spring start on March 6 was crisp: 2 1/3 scoreless innings with four strikeouts. In a short sample, that’s the exact shape you want—no runs, plenty of bat-missing. He may still be more “depth arm” than immediate option per the write-up, but outings like this are how you force the org to keep looking.

Ian Seymour — Rays
Seymour was perfect in his March 6 outing, retiring all 10 batters he faced and striking out six. The changeup note is the dagger: nine whiffs on 11 swings is pure swing-and-miss dominance. When a pitcher’s best secondary is doing that, dynasty managers should pay attention—this is the kind of outing that moves prospect stock.

Chase Burns — Reds
Burns’ early spring profile is built on whiffs: an elite 54% whiff rate across his first two outings as of March 3. The pitch-level notes are loud—fastball averaging 97.4 mph (41% whiff) and a slider at 90.2 mph (75% whiff)—the kind of bat-missing foundation fantasy players chase. The write-up flags a higher rookie-year ERA, but the underlying strikeout indicators scream upside if the control cooperates.

Taj Bradley — Twins
Bradley’s March 11 outing was a needed stabilizer: 5.0 innings, three hits, one earned run, seven strikeouts, and two walks on 69 pitches (46 strikes). The note adds context that his spring ERA sat at 6.00 before this, so this reads like a real step forward in both control and swing-and-miss. If this kind of command holds, the write-up’s breakout-case logic is clear—his stuff can play up quickly.

Relief Pitcher (RP)

Chris Pallante — Cardinals
Pallante gave the Cardinals length out of the pen on March 2 vs. the Marlins, covering 3.0 innings with three hits allowed, one earned run, and two strikeouts. The results weren’t spotless, but the ability to handle multiple frames is the real takeaway and it plays up his utility in this bullpen. If the Cardinals keep leaning on him in these extended spots, he’s a sensible late-round target in formats that reward holds.

Matthew Boyd — Team USA
Boyd followed Skenes on March 3 vs. the Giants and carved up hitters for 2 2/3 scoreless innings with four strikeouts. That’s dominant relief work, and the strikeout volume is the loudest part of the line. If his role funnels him into leverage, he’s immediately more interesting in holds formats.

Carlos Lagrange — Yankees
Lagrange has brought eye-popping velocity this spring, averaging triple digits and touching 102.4 mph—the fastest pitch noted. The later line adds real performance to the radar-gun story: on March 3 he struck out four in three innings with an average fastball at 100.0 mph, and earlier notes included Ks on heaters at 102.0 and 101.5. That’s not just velocity—it’s bat-missing power that can translate into leverage, and it puts him on the short list of future fantasy closer/impact relief names.

Wander Suero — Athletics
Suero threw two scoreless innings on March 3, allowing one hit with no walks and one strikeout. It’s a clean, efficient line, and that matters when you’re being evaluated for an Opening Day bullpen spot—no traffic, no damage. If he keeps logging tidy innings like this, he can stick and become a sneaky holds/deep-league relief option.

Taylor Rogers — Twins
Rogers was sharp on March 11: one scoreless inning, no hits, no walks, and two strikeouts. That’s a clean, efficient leverage-style frame—get ahead, miss bats, and leave no mess behind. In holds formats, outings like this reinforce why he stays relevant even without saves.

Andrew Chafin — Twins
Chafin tossed a clean March 11 inning and struck out two without allowing a hit or a walk. That’s pure “veteran lefty doing his job” execution—command first, damage never. If he’s living in that setup lane, the fantasy value in holds and ratios is very real.

Justin Topa — Twins
Topa matched the theme on March 11: one scoreless inning, no hits, no walks, and two strikeouts. The swing-and-miss in a clean frame is the key—those are the outings that earn higher-leverage chances over time. If he keeps doing this, he’s a sneaky holds/ratios play as the bullpen picture settles.
