Red Sox returned 1B/OF Eric Filia to the Mariners.

Filia had been announced earlier this week as the player to be named in the Roenis Elias deal, but he failed his physical. The Red Sox will receive cash considerations instead. Filia was suspended for 50 games in January after testing positive for a drug of abuse.

Orioles acquired LHP Jayvien Sandridge from the Angels for cash considerations and optioned him to Triple-A Norfolk.

Sandridge was designated for assignment by the Angels after he didn’t make the Opening Day roster. He’ll head to Baltimore as a potential bullpen option for the Orioles in 2026.

Can Marlins progress towards competing in 2026?

March 27, 2026 05:22 PM

The Dan Le Batard show debates how the Miami Marlins can get fans back into the good graces of the Miami fanbase and why 2026 might be the beginning of resurrecting that enthusiasm.

Walker Jenkins

MIN Center Fielder

Walker Jenkins is leading off and playing center field for Triple-A St. Paul on Sunday.

Jenkins has been dealing with a hamstring injury, and the 21-year-old will play seven innings for the next week or so as he builds his strength back up according to Dan Hayes of The Athletic. Jenkins is among the best prospects in baseball and likely will make his MLB debut this summer.

Pete Fairbanks

MIA Relief Pitcher #29

Pete Fairbanks will not be available for Sunday’s game against the Rockies.

Fairbanks picked up the save in back-to-back games, so the 32-year-old will get a day of rest for the finale against Colorado. Anthony Bender or Calvin Faucher would likely get the ninth inning if a save opportunity is presented.

Walbert Ureña

LAA Starting Pitcher #57

Angels manager Kurt Suzuki told reporters that Walbert Ureña will return to starting after being optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake.

Ureña was optioned Sunday after a disastrous relief appearance against the Astros on Saturday. The 22-year-old will be a potential starting option if he pitches well in Salt Lake, but can be safely ignored in redraft leagues for now.

Jake Fraley

TB Right Fielder #17

Jake Fraley has been scratched from Sunday’s lineup due to soreness in his right shoulder.

Rays manager Kevin Cash told reporters that Fraley picked up some soreness after attempting to make a diving catch during Saturday’s game against St. Louis. Cash also suggested that the injury isn’t believed to be serious, so for now, consider Fraley day-to-day.

Jake Fraley

TB Right Fielder #17
Jake Fraley has been scratched from Sunday’s lineup against the Cardinals.

No word yet as to why Fraley won’t be in the lineup, but he’ll sit to begin Sunday’s game against St. Louis with Jonny DeLuca taking his place in the lineup.

Brent Honeywell

FA Relief Pitcher #40

Giants released RHP Brent Honeywell.

Honeywell was either given his walking papers or opted out of his minor league pact with the Giants, but either way, he’s now free to find a new organization to play for. The former top prospect is almost assuredly looking at another minor league contract with whatever organization deems him worthy.

Alejandro Kirk

TOR Catcher #30
Alejandro Kirk is not in the starting lineup for Sunday’s game against the Athletics.

Kirk will get a day of maintenance for the first Sunday — and likely many Sunday’s after — of the 2026 campaign. Tyler Heineman will get the start behind the plate and hit ninth in Kirk’s absence.

CJ Abrams

WSH Shortstop #5

CJ Abrams (personal) is hitting sixth and playing shortstop against the Cubs on Sunday.

Abrams was away from the team due to a death in his family for Saturday’s game. Nasim Nuñez will get the start at second base after filling in at short for that contest, and Luis Garcia begins Sunday’s contest on the bench.

Carlos Estévez

KC Relief Pitcher #53

Carlos Estévez is dealing with a right ankle contusion and is currently wearing a walking boot.

Estévez was rocked for six runs and blew Saturday’s save against Atlanta, and it’s very plausible that the ankle injury didn’t help. Royals manager Matt Quatraro hinted that Estévez likely wouldn’t be available, but if he is, also suggested that he would be used in a “lower-leverage” situation. Estévez’s velocity was down all spring, and fantasy managers need to pay close attention to this situation. Lucas Erceg would likely be next man up for closing games.
