Cole Sands

MIN Relief Pitcher #44

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Cole Sands allowed four runs, was charged with a blown save and got the win against the Diamondbacks on Friday.

Sands allowed four runs in the top of the ninth inning as he blew the save, but he was awarded his fourth win of the season when the Twins came back in the bottom of the inning. Despite the poor outing personally for Sands, he’s likely still first in line for saves in Minnesota with Justin Topa going on the injured list.

Zach Logue re-signed with the Doosan Bears of the Korea Baseball Organization.

It’s a one-year contract for Logue that will pay him $1.1 million. Jeff Passan of ESPN reports that Logue did explore a return to MLB, but the 29-year-old southpaw will remain overseas for at least one more season. He pitched well for the Bears in 2025 with a 2.81 ERA over 176 innings with a K/BB ratio of 156/39.

Joey Wiemer

SF Right Fielder #41

Giants designated OF Joey Wiemer for assignment.

Wiemer was acquired from the Marlins by the Giants in November, and there’s a good chance he won’t play a game for San Francisco. He hits the waiver wire with the signing of Jason Foley now official.

Anirudh Kilambi

WSH General Manager

Multiple outlets report that the Nationals are hiring Anirudh Kilambi as the new general manager.

Kilambi will join the Nationals to work with new president of baseball operations Paul Tobon. He joins the club after serving as the assistant GM of the Phillies, and is widely respected for his work in research and development.

Mark Leiter Jr.

ATH Relief Pitcher #56

Athletics signed RHP Mark Leiter Jr. to a one-year contract.

Leiter will join the A’s bullpen after posting a 4.84 ERA in 48 1/3 innings. The 34-year-old should be a high-leverage option in 2026, and could even be inline for saves this summer. Fantasy managers will need some clarification in that situation before investing a draft pick.

Matt Koperniak

STL Left Fielder #29

Cardinals designated OF Matt Koperniak for assignment.

Koperniak gets removed from the 40-man roster to make room for Dustin May. The 27-year-old will hit the waiver wire, and a team that believes he can provide some outfield help in 2026 could put in a claim.

Dustin May

STL Starting Pitcher #85

Cardinals signed RHP Dustin May to a one-year, $12 million contract with a mutual option for 2027.

The mutual option is for $20 million, and contains a $500,000 buyout. May will get a chance to pitch in the middle of the St. Louis rotation after forging a 4.98 ERA and 123/56 K/BB in his 25 appearances and 132 1/3 innings with the Dodgers and Red Sox in 2025.

Lane Thomas

KC Center Fielder #8

Royals signed OF Lane Thomas to a one-year, $5.25 million contract.

Thomas can make another million in incentives. The 30-year-old should be a regular for Kansas City in 2026, and his power/speed potential makes him a sneaky late-round draft pick this spring.

Drew Rom

MIL Starting Pitcher #63

Brewers signed LHP Drew Rom to a minor league contract.

Rom hasn’t pitched in the majors since 2023. The 26-year-old left-hander will be an organizational depth piece for Milwaukee in 2026.
