Winn finds himself back in the majors with Giants closer Randy Rodríguez on the injured list with an elbow sprain. The 27-year-old has made a pair of scoreless relief appearances this season at the big-league level.

The 23-year-old infielder started a rally with a two-out single off of Kyle Harrison in the second inning and scored the game’s first run on Michael Stefanic’s RBI triple. White then delivered a bases-clearing double in the third inning that made it a 6-0 ballgame. He capped off the rout with a 395-foot (97.5 mph EV) grand slam off of Mark Manfredi in the ninth that put the game way out of reach. He’s having an outstanding spring, hitting .464 (13-for-28) with four homers and 13 RBI.

The A’s rallied with two outs in the second inning as Tommy White singled and Michael Stefanic followed with an RBI triple. Wallach then strolled to the dish and ambushed a first-pitch fastball from Kyle Harrison for a 406-foot (103.3 mph EV) two-run shot that increased the A’s advantage to 3-0. That would be his only hit in three at-bats on the day. For the spring, the 34-year-old backstop is hitting .105 (2-for-19) with just the one home run and two RBI.

The 29-year-old right-hander finally looked sharp in this one, getting Andrew Vaughn on a fly ball to center, Garrett Mitchell on a swinging third strike and Luis Rengifo on a ground ball to short. Sterner got three whiffs on 11 pitches on the day, posting a CSW of 36 percent. His fastball velocity was in line with what we saw during the 2025 season at 93.1 mph (-0.4 mph). He remains a candidate to open the season in the closer’s role for the A’s, though he’ll probably need to replicate Friday’s outing at least a few more times in order to do so.

Vaughn led off the second inning with a single but was doubled off of first on a line drive. He then smacked a run-scoring double off of Brooks Kriske in the sixth inning that trimmed the Brewers’ deficit to five runs at 7-2. The 27-year-old slugger has picked up this spring right where he left off during his strong second half with the Brewers in 2025, hitting .400 (12-for-30) with a pair of long balls and six RBI.

The 24-year-old southpaw punched out four batters on the day while allowing one base on balls. Harrison navigated a scoreless first inning and recorded the first two outs of the second before surrendering three straight hits — culminating in a two-run blast by Chad Wallach. He then gave up four hits and a walk during a three-run rally in the third inning. Harrison got nine whiffs on 66 pitches on the afternoon, registering a CSW of 27 percent. The door is open for him to seize a spot in the Brewers’ rotation, but Harrison has stumbled to a 9.00 ERA and 1.57 WHIP over 7 innings on the spring despite a strong 12/3 K/BB ratio.

Long after the starters were gone, the Yankees nearly pulled off a big comeback, scoring five times off Ian Mejia in the top of the ninth. Fuentes, who made his major league debut one week after his 20th birthday last June, worked at 96-99 mph and threw 30 of his 42 pitches for strikes today. There’s little chance of the Braves making him their fifth starter, but he has a chance of being a factor this summer

Two poor outings in a row have left Weathers with an 8.68 ERA this spring. Still, he did have a 37% CSW today, and he allowed two fewer hard-hit balls than hits. His velocity remains great — he hit 100.0 on the gun today — but, of course, if it was all about stuff, the Marlins wouldn’t have given him up for a package headed by the Yankees’ 15th-best prospect.

For better or worse, Farmer is looking like a pretty good bet to make the Braves with Ha-Seong Kim on the injured list. He’s 13-for-27 this spring after hitting just .227/.280/.365 in 300 plate appearances for the Rockies this spring.

McMahon tweaked his batting stance in the hopes of cutting back on his strikeouts, but he thus far has eight of those and only three hits in 30 plate appearances. As poorly as he performed offensively after arriving from Colorado last summer, McMahon’s job could be in some jeopardy in May if José Caballero is performing well when Anthony Volpe is ready to return.

Varsho usually hit in the bottom half of the Blue Jays lineup last year, but he’s making a strong case to take over the second spot in between George Springer and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. this season. He’s hitting .452/.485/.935 with just one strikeout in 33 plate appearances this spring.
