  • NYM Center Fielder #28

    This is pretty aggressive. Pham, signed to a minor league deal on Opening Day, didn’t play this spring. His only minor league action consists of him going 2-for-12 in five games in A ball. And he was basically a zero WAR guy the last two years. No word yet on who is going down. Ronny Mauricio would seem to be logical choice, even if it leaves the Mets a little short-handed in the infield.
  • MIL 2nd Baseman #2
    Turang’s hardest-hit ball through his first two big-league seasons (2023 and ’24) was 108.3 mph. He topped 104 mph on three percent of his balls in play. Today, he came in at 109.6 and 104.0 mph on his homers and 106.9 mph on a line-drive single. He’s hitting .298/.441/.617 with three homers and five steals in 13 games.
  • LAD Starting Pitcher #11
    Sasaki had quality stuff in Sunday’s loss, which isn’t a surprise. He was able to procure 15 swings and misses among his 94 pitches, and his slider was particularly effective; generating five whiffs on 11 swings. The issue was once again control, as he walked five hitters and threw just 51 of those 94 pitches for strikes. There’s no denying that Sasaki has the swing-and-miss stuff to be one of the best fantasy starters in baseball, but until he figures out how to locate it, there are going to be more outings like this that frustrate more than satisfy. He’s scheduled to face the Rockies in Colorado next Sunday.
  • TEX Starting Pitcher #48
    After giving up a homer to Cal Raleigh in the first inning in his last outing, deGrom gave up another solo dinger early, this time to Shohei Ohtani. From that point on, the 37-year-old was fantastic, allowing only three more hits and generating 15 swings and misses in the contest before exiting. His fastball averaged 97.2 mph, so the minor knee discomfort he was dealing with clearly didn’t have a major affect during Sunday’s bout. He’ll have a good chance to miss more bats when he faces the Mariners on Friday in Seattle.
  • SD Center Fielder #3
    After not stealing a base for a full calendar year, Merrill now has three swiped bags over the past week. The homer was also his third of the campaign, and while his overall numbers may not reflect it (.217/.288/.417), there have been more than enough flashes to suggest a big season is coming for Merrill. It’s too early to guarantee any such thing, but this is beyond encouraging.
  • SD 1st Baseman #25
    France also doubled along with a single for the three-hit game. The 31-year-old has his first homer of the campaign in his return to the Padres, and his first RBI for good measure. France was once among the better first-base options in fantasy circles, but he’s not someone who can be counted on in formats at this stage of his career. Sunday was a fun reminder of what once was, however, and it’s not out of the question the 31-year-old has a bounceback campaign in 2026.
  • SEA Starting Pitcher #36
    It’s the first win of the season for Gilbert, and more importantly, it’s the first time that he’s been able to complete seven innings since Opening Day last year. The right-hander was excellent; generating 15 swings-and-misses to pick up seven strikeouts, and the only run allowed was a solo homer by Yainer Diaz that scraped over the left-field walk. After two shaky starts to begin the year, Gilbert has looked the part in his last two outings while allowing just three runs over those 13 frames. He’ll face the Rangers at home Friday in a matchup with Jacob deGrom.
  • SD Starting Pitcher #27
    Pivetta will assuredly undergo imaging to determine his status going forward, but obviously, this is potentially a significant injury for the right-hander. The 33-year-old has been one of the more durable hurlers in baseball in the decade, but a trip to the injured list now seems more likely than not. Stay tuned for further updates on Pivetta’s status in the coming days.
  • LAA Starting Pitcher #59
    Those just seeing the final score might have worried about Soriano’s ERA today, but all of those runs came against Sam Bachman, Nick Sandlin and Drew Pomeranz after he exited. Soriano allowed just two hits and walked three in his fourth career 10-strikeout game. He didn’t give up a single hit or hard-hit ball on any of the 62 sinkers and four-seamers that he threw today. Soriano is the first pitcher to win four times this year, and his 0.33 ERA is the best among qualified pitchers. Given that he still walks guys and allows quite a bit of hard contact (just not so much today), he’s probably not going to spend the entire season as a Cy Young contender. He’s never lacked for talent, though.
  • CHC Catcher #15
    With the score tied 6-6 in the bottom of the ninth, Kelly scorched a “single” that would have been an extra-base hit if the runner at third wasn’t the winner. The 31-year-old has swung a nice stick to begin the year with a slash of .308/.426/.385, and he gets to call himself the hero of this Cubs’ comeback win as well.
