Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Dodgers 3B prospect Mike Ahmed pounded three homers Sunday in a win for High-A Rancho Cucamonga.

Ahmed guided the Quakes to a 10-9 win over High Desert with a go-ahead blast in the 10th inning. All of his home runs were of the solo variety. The 24-year-old has been firing on all cylinders lately. He’s hit .395 over his last 10 contests while boosting his average from .270 to .286. Ahmed now ranks seventh in the California League in runs scored (68), seventh in slugging percentage (.502) and ninth in home runs (15).

Reed Garrett

NYM Pitcher #75

Mets placed RHP Reed Garrett on the 60-day injured list.

This move was inevitable as Garrett underwent Tommy John surgery in October and will miss the entirety of the 2026 season. This was done as a procedural move to free up a spot on the Mets’ 40-man roster for the addition of Bryan Hudson on Tuesday.

Bryan Hudson

NYM Relief Pitcher #60

Mets acquired LHP Bryan Hudon from the White Sox for cash considerations.

With AJ Minter (lat) expected to open the season on the injured list, the Mets wanted to add second capable left-hander to their bullpen mix to work alongside Brooks Raley. Hudson will get the chance to compete for that job with Joe Jacques and Anderson Severino during spring training.

Justin Verlander

DET Starting Pitcher #35

Tigers signed RHP Justin Verlander to a one-year, $13 million contract.

The 42-year-old future Hall of Famer returns to the organization that made him the second overall pick in the draft way back in 2004. Verlander spent the first 12 and a half seasons of his big league career with the Tigers before being shipped to the Astros in a deadline deal in 2017. He’s still 34 victories away from 300 for his career, a milestone that Verlander wants to achieve before he retires. He adds quality depth to the back end of what’s shaping up to be a fearsome Tigers’ rotation.

Bryan Hudson

CWS Relief Pitcher #60
Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports that the Mets have agreed to acquire left-hander Bryan Hudson from the White Sox for cash considerations.

The White Sox designated Hudson for assignment over the weekend and the Mets took advantage by making them a cash offer for the 28-year-old southpaw. Hudson has proven to be a viable bullpen arm over the past couple of seasons and should add quality depth to the Mets’ bullpen mix.

Andrew Saalfrank

AZ Pitcher #27

Diamondbacks placed LHP Andrew Saalfrank on the 60-day injured list with a torn left labrum.

The Diamondbacks announced the unfortunate news on Tuesday that Saalfrank had to undergo shoulder surgery and would miss the entire 2026 season. Placing him on the 60-day injured list now frees up a roster spot for the club to make the signing of Carlos Santana official. Saalfrank should be fully recovered and ready to go for the start of spring training in 2027.

Carlos Santana

AZ 1st Baseman #41

Diamondbacks signed 1B Carlos Santana to a one-year, $2 million contract.

The deal which was agreed to last week, is official now that Santana has passed his physical. The 39-year-old hit just .219/.308/.325 with 11 homers and seven stolen bases during his time with the Guardians and Cubs in 2025, so it’s difficult to envision a career renaissance in 2026. He’ll share time at first base and designated hitter with Pavin Smith and Tyler Locklear.

Tomoyuki Sugano

COL Starting Pitcher #19

Rockies signed RHP Tomoyuki Sugano to a one-year, $5.1 million contract.

The Rockies desperately needed to increase the depth of their starting rotation, but signing an underperforming 36-year-old hurler with severe home run issues and expecting him to pitch well at Coors Field seems like a stretch. Like most Rockies’ starting pitchers, Sugano should be completely avoided for fantasy purposes.

Kris Bryant

COL Designated Hitter #23

Rockies placed INF/OF Kris Bryant on the 60-day injured list with lumbar degenerative disk disease.

Word over the winter was that the 34-year-old slugger wasn’t considering retirement, but that may eventually be the only path available to Bryant if he’s unable to overcome his chronic back issues. Bryant has played in just 170 games during his first four seasons with the Rockies.

Cody Bradford

TEX Pitcher #61

Cody Bradford (elbow) will incorporate breaking balls into his bullpen session for the first time on Tuesday since undergoing surgery to repair a UCL injury in his left elbow.

It will be the seventh bullpen session that the 27-year-old southpaw has thrown this offseason, but the first that won’t be comprised of all fastballs. Bradford is on schedule in his recovery and is still targeting May for a return to the Rangers.

Robert Suarez

ATL Pitcher #75

Braves’ right-hander Robert Suarez will be a late arrival to spring training due to visa issues.

That explains why the 34-year-old hurler wasn’t seen around camp when pitchers and catchers reported. No word yet on how long Suarez will need to resolve the visa issue, but it won’t impact his availability for the start of the regular season. He’s expected to function in a setup capacity in front of incumbent closer Raisel Iglesias.
