Dylan Crews Showing Power, Speed In Spring Training

Washington Nationals outfield prospect Dylan Crews has showcased his elite skill set early in spring training. Across his first two games, the LSU product has gone 2-for-4 with a triple, an RBI, and a stolen base. The former second overall pick in the 2023 MLB Draft made his MLB debut last season. Across his first 31 MLB games, Crews held a .218/.288/.353 line with five doubles, three home runs, and 12 stolen bases, He showed a strong eye at the plate with a 19.7 percent strikeout rate, which placed him in the 93rd percentile in sprint speed. Through 49 games with Triple-A Rochester, the 22-year-old posted a .265/.340/.455 slash line with 10 doubles, eight home runs, and 10 stolen bases. Crews is projected to be Washington's everyday right fielder and potentially bat in the top half of the lineup. If he continues to show five-category upside during camp, he could be an intriguing breakout pick in drafts.

Jac Caglianone Launches First Long Ball Of Spring Training

Kansas City Royals first base prospect Jac Caglianone went 1-for-1 with a solo shot during Sunday's victory over the Chicago White Sox. Caglianone launched a 435-foot shot off White Sox left-handed pitcher Trey McGough in the eighth inning. The Florida product was selected with the sixth overall pick in last year's MLB Draft. Caglianone was a two-way player at Florida but is expected to focus exclusively on hitting with Kansas City. Caglianone is considered the top first base prospect on MLB Pipeline and went deep 68 times over his final two seasons at Florida. The 22-year-old was given a brief look at High-A last summer and held a .241 AVG and hit two home runs across 29 games. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his development, as he could spend most of the 2025 season with Double-A.

Spencer Jones Launches Two-Run Shot In Spring Debut

New York Yankees outfield prospect Spencer Jones went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run during their loss to the Toronto Blue Jays on Saturday afternoon. Jones hit the home run off Toronto right-hander Eric Pardinho. Jones is considered one of the top hitting prospects in the Yankee system. Last summer, the Vanderbilt product held a .259/.336/.452 line with 30 doubles and 17 home runs. He swiped 25 bags but held a poor 54:200 BB:K ratio. During the 2023 campaign, the 23-year-old spent most of his season with High-A Hudson Valley and posted a .261/.333/.406 line. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor Jones' development as he could open the season with Triple-A. If he continues to flash this upside power, he may push for an MLB debut later this season.

Parker Meadows To Undergo Further Testing

Detroit Tigers outfielder Parker Meadows (biceps) is set to undergo further testing on Monday. The outfielder sustained this injury during a spring training contest on Saturday afternoon. He suffered this injury when making a throw and was lifted from the game. However, at the time of the injury, manager A.J. Hinch noted that it did not appear to be serious. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status as the tests will likely reveal some clarity on the extent of the injury. Last season, Meadows got off to a slow start but became an integral part of their lineup down the stretch. After the Midsummer classic, Meadows became the team's primary leadoff hitter and held a strong .296/.340/.500 line with six home runs and five stolen bases. If Meadows were to miss time, Matt Vierling or Wenceel Perez could see time in center field.

Sean Manaea Likely To Miss Opening Day With Oblique Strain

New York Mets left-hander Sean Manaea (oblique) has been diagnosed with a right-oblique strain and will most likely miss Opening Day at the end of March, according to MLB.com's Anthony DiComo. Manaea will be shut down for a couple of weeks at spring training before restarting his spring progression. If everything goes well once he resumes throwing, Manaea could make his 2025 debut by mid- or late April. It's an early blow to the Mets' starting pitching, as the veteran left-hander was the team's top pitcher in 2024, going 12-6 with a 3.47 ERA over 32 starts. The 33-year-old signed a three-year, $75 million contract in the offseason to return to the Mets. With both Manaea and Frankie Montas (lat) injured, it increases the likelihood of Griffin Canning, Tylor Megill and Paul Blackburn (back) all making the Opening Day rotation.
