Zack Littell

TB Relief Pitcher #52

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Zack Littell allowed one run on four hits in 5 2/3 innings in a win over the Astros on Saturday.

Littell struck out three and walked one while inducing 10 whiffs on 40 swings for a 25 percent whiff rate and 29 percent CSW on the day. The only damage was a solo home run to Jon Singleton in the second inning. With the Rays trading away Zach Eflin and Aaron Civale, Littell’s rotation spot is secured, even with the rest of the Rays’ rotation getting healthy. He’ll take a 4.06 ERA into a tough start with the Orioles next week.

Brandon Drury

KC 3rd Baseman #23

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Royals signed INF Brandon Drury to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training.

Drury was tremendous in spring training for the White Sox last year before suffering an injury that eventually led to his release. He’d later join the Angels but spent the entire year in the minors. The veteran hit 26 home runs in 2023 and was a Silver Slugger winner in 2022 before his production fell off in 2024. It’s a worthwhile gamble for the Royals.

Jordyn Adams

MIL Center Fielder #80

Brewers signed OF Jordyn Adams to a minor league contract.

Adams is a former first-round pick who has bounced around over the past few years, and he’ll need an outstanding spring training if he has any chance to make the Brewers’ Opening Day roster.

Framber Valdez

FA Starting Pitcher #59
Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports that the Blue Jays are among the teams showing interest in Framber Valdez.

Valdez has been linked to the Orioles and Mets, but there’s another team playing in the East that reportedly has interest in the former Houston ace. Even with Toronto adding Dylan Cease and having a pretty full rotation, it’s not surprising to see them having interest in a player with the ability of Valdez as they look to return — and possibly win — the World Series.

Yainer Diaz

HOU Catcher #21

Yainer Diaz won his arbitration case against the Astros and will make $4.6 million in 2026.

Diaz won out after the Astros filed at just $3 million. The catcher hit .256 with 20 homers, 70 RBI and a 95/20 K/BB ratio over his 567 plate appearances with Houston in 2025.

Kyle Keller

BOS Relief Pitcher #67

Red Sox signed RHP Kyle Keller to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training.

Keller returns stateside with a contract that can pay him $1.9 million according to Will Sammon of The Athletic, if he makes the club. The 32-year-old pitched well in his two years in the NPB with a 2.42 ERA over 156 2/3 innings, and he’ll have a good chance of earning a roster spot with a quality showing at spring training.

Marco Luciano

NYY Outfield #37

Yankees sent OF Marco Luciano outright to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

Luciano was designated for assignment at the end of January, and finally, no one claimed him. The former top prospect will need to be added to the 40-man roster if the Yankees deem him worthy of an MLB spot at any point.

Michael Siani

LAD Center Fielder #22

Dodgers claimed OF Michael Siani off waivers from the Yankees.

Are the Dodgers just bored? Siani was designated for assignment by Los Angeles and claimed by the Yankees a little over a week ago, and now they’ve decided they want him back, after all. To make room for Siani, the team designated Andy Ibáñez for assignment three weeks after they signed him for $1.2 million. Baseball is weird.

Andy Ibáñez

LAD Infield #77

Dodgers designated INF Andy Ibáñez for assignment.

That was quick. Ibáñez had just signed a one-year, $1.2 million contract in the middle of January, and now he is off the 40-man roster two weeks before pitchers and catchers report. It’s possible someone could make a waiver claim, but there’s just as good of chance he’ll hit free agency — again — in a few days.

Carlos Santana

FA 1st Baseman #41
Ken Rosenthal and Will Sammon of The Athletic reports that the Diamondbacks have an agreement with free agent first baseman Carlos Santana.

Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports that Santana will make $2 million, and that the deal is pending a physical. Santana hit .219/.308/.325 with 11 homers and seven steals in his time with the Guardians and Cubs in 2025. The 39-year-old will see playing time assuredly, but could be part of a first base/DH platoon with Pavin Smith and Tyler Locklear.

Kyle Bradish

BAL Pitcher #38

Kyle Bradish won his arbitration hearing against the Orioles and will make $3.55 million in 2026.

Bradish defeated the Orioles’ offer of $2.875 million. The right-hander forged a 47/10 K/BB over 32 innings across six starts after returning from his elbow injury. He’ll pitch near the top of the Baltimore rotation to open the 2026 season.
