The deal is pending a physical and will reportedly pay him north of $15 million. It was reported Thursday that the Diamondbacks were exploring “creative” ways to get Gallen back, and they appear to have found the way. The right-hander was linked to a deal with the Cubs, but the 30-year-old will ultimately return to pitch near the top of the Arizona rotation again. Gallen’s 2025 season was mostly disappointing, but he’s an excellent bounceback candidate in familiar surroundings.

Voth last pitched in the majors in 2024 with a solid 3.69 ERA and 61/18 K/BB ratio over 61 innings as a member of the Mariners. The 33-year-old stands a good chance of winning a job with the White Sox with a good showing in the Cactus League.

Laweryson returns to Minnesota a week after the Angels released him; iwth Los Angeles claiming him from the Twins back in September. He’ll provide some org depth this season.

Bassitt is not the ace that so many Baltimore fans were hoping the Orioles will add, but the 36-year-old is a solid addition who has made at least 30 starts in each of his last four seasons He’s not an elite bat-misser, but there should be enough quality to suggest he can help fantasy rosters in 2026 more than he’d hurt.

“I would concede it’s in [Dominguez’s] best interest to be getting everyday reps,” Cashman said. “We’ll just have to wait and see how the spring shakes out, who’s standing, and then we’ll make the appropriate decisions when we have our meetings close to the end of camp.” With Trent Grishham and Cody Bellinger back, there’s no clear path to Dominguez playing every day with Giancarlo Stanton a lock to be the designated hitter. There’s still big-time upside in Dominguez’s profile, but it may not be on display much in 2026.

Two year minor-league contracts are not common, but they make more sense when you consider that Means is going to likely miss all of the 2026 season after rupturing his Achilles in December. The 32-year-old will have a chance to help Kansas City’s rotation in 2027 assuming there are no major setbacks in his recovery.

It is an MLB deal, so it does appear that Rengifo will open the 2026 season on the Brew Crew roster Rengifo was not good in 2026 with an ugly .622 OPS over 541 at-bats in 2025 with the Angels, but he’s a switch-hitter who offers versatility with the ability to play pretty much anywhere but catcher. It’s hard to see a ton of playing time for Rengifo to open 2026, so even with some power and speed potential, it’s difficult to justify him as a fantasy option

This would seem to be a no-brainer, but it’s nice to hear. Alvarez went back to his old batting stance after his demotion last year and then returned to the Mets to slash .276/.360/.561 with eight home runs and a 25 percent strikeout rate in 40 games to finish the season. Alvarez is just 24 years old and also came into camp 10 pounds lighter this season. He has had terrible luck with hand injuries over the last few years, but there could be a major buying opportunity here in fantasy baseball leagues.

Wick spent the last two years with the Yokohama DeNA BayStars of Japan’s Nippon Professional Baseball, posting a 1.75 ERA in 87 2/3 innings out of the bullpen. He is currently recovering from Tommy John surgery and will likely not pitch until 2027. The 33-year-old has a 3.82 ERA in 146 MLB innings, mostly with the Cubs.

The Rangers claimed Kent off waivers from the Cardinals back in January, but he will now be placed back on waivers so the team can open up a spot for Jordan Montgomery. Of course, Montgomery will soon be placed on the 60-day IL, which will open up a roster spot in Texas yet again.
