Spencer Torkelson

DET 1st Baseman #20

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Tigers signed 1B Spencer Torkelson to a one-year, $4.075 million deal to avoid arbitration

After struggling so much in 2024 that he was sent to the minors, Torkelson rebounded in a big way in 2025, slashing .240/.333/.456 with 31 home runs and 78 RBI in 155 games for the Tigers. He may still never hit for a high batting average, and the strikeouts will remain a part of his game, but the power is very much for real, and he should continue to hit in the middle of the Tigers’ lineup.

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.

Freddie Freeman

LAD 1st Baseman #5

Freddie Freeman went 3-for-4 with an RBI in a win over the Diamondbacks on Saturday.

Freeman doubled home Kyle Tucker to get the Dodgers on the board in the sixth inning. He was hitless over his first two games, and there should be a few more three-hit efforts from the future Hall of Famer before 2026 comes to a close.

Will Smith

LAD Catcher #16

Will Smith hit a go-ahead two-run homer in the eighth inning to help the Dodgers to a 3-2 win Saturday over the Diamondbacks.

Well, that’s one way to celebrate your 31st birthday. With the Dodgers trailing 2-1, Smith smoked a two-run homer that had an expected batting average of .900 to give Los Angeles a 3-2 lead and ultimately the victory. It’s the second homer of the season for Smith, and he should again be one of the best fantasy backstops in baseball. It wouldn’t be a massive upset if he ended up in the top spot.

Edwin Díaz

LAD Relief Pitcher #3

Edwin Díaz fired a scoreless ninth to pick up a save versus the Diamondbacks on Saturday.

Diaz needed just 10 pitches to get through the lineup, and he didn’t allow a hit, walk a batter or strike anyone out. Pretty boring, but pretty effective, too. Diaz now has saves in back-to-back outings, so he may not be available for Sunday’s finale against Arizona.

Tyler Glasnow

LAD Starting Pitcher #31

Tyler Glasnow allowed two runs over his six innings in a no-decision versus the Diamondbacks on Saturday.

Glasnow was able to work six innings in his first start of the season; in encouraging sign for a pitcher that has at times struggled to get deep in games early in the year. He generate seven swings-and-misses while procuring six strikeouts, while issuing just one walk. Glasnow’s health is going to be something fantasy managers monitor for the rest of his career, but when he’s on the bump, there aren’t many better. He shouldn’t have any issue handling the Washington lineup next weekend.
