Colorado Rockies outfielder Sean Bouchard has held a .444/.444/.833 slash line with two doubles, one triple, and one home run across seven spring training contests. Bouchard underwent surgery on his hamate bone during the offseason but appears to be past this injury. Last season, the 28-year-old held a career-low .187/.290/.297 slash line with just seven doubles and one home run across 31 contests. Bouchard drew walks at a strong 11.1 percent rate but struck out at a high 30.6 percent rate. The UCLA product is currently competing for a depth role in the Colorado outfield, but a strong spring training could push him up the depth chart. Outfield prospect Jordan Beck has enjoyed an excellent start to camp and could be the favorite to win the right field job over Bouchard and Sam Hillard. Given his current placement on the depth chart, Bouchard does not carry value in any standard formats. However, if he continues to perform well in camp, he could see an increased role to open the 2025 season.

San Diego Padres starting pitcher Nick Pivetta tossed 2 2/3 shutout frames in his spring training debut on Tuesday. Pivetta signed a four-year, $55 million contract with the Padres in February and was slightly behind schedule to start camp. However, the 32-year-old looked sharp in his first taste of game action as he tallied four punchouts and allowed just one base runner (via a free pass). Last season, Pivetta logged 145 2/3 innings with a 4.14 ERA with a 1.13 WHIP with the Boston Red Sox. He tallied an impressive 172 strikeouts and held a strong 6.1 percent walk rate. He also generated a 3.51 xERA with a .221 xBA, suggesting he should see significant positive regression during the 2025 campaign. Fantasy managers should view Pivetta as an intriguing option in the later rounds when looking to boost their strikeout totals.

The Philadelphia Phillies have reassigned infield prospect Aidan Miller to minor-league camp. Miller was invited to the major-league camp as a non-roster invite. The former 27th overall pick in the 2023 MLB Draft has spent most of his career in the lower levels of the minor leagues. Last season, Miller received his first extended look at the Single-A level and held a .275/.401/.483 slash line with 16 doubles and five home runs. He swiped 10 bags. He was then promoted to High-A where the 20-year-old held a .258/.353/.444 slash line with 12 doubles and six home runs. His strong play rewarded a brief five-game taste of Double-A where he tallied four hits. Given his strong performance in the lower levels of the Philadelphia system, Miller should have a good opportunity to open the 2025 campaign at the Double-A level.

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Jordan Walker (knee) underwent tests on his left knee. Walker sustained this injury during Tuesday's spring training contest. John Denton of MLB.com noted that the team should provide an update later on Wednesday. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status as the team will likely keep him sidelined for the time being. During his MLB debut in the 2023 season, Walker logged 113 games and held a .276/.342/.445 slash line with 19 doubles, 16 home runs, and swiped seven bags. In 2024, Walker logged 51 games at the MLB level and held a .201/.253/.366 line with 10 doubles and five home runs. He generated a weak .211 xBA but posted an above-average 43.1 percent hard-hit rate. If Walker were to miss time, Alec Burleson would likely have an increased role in right field.

Washington Nationals pitching prospect Jarlin Susana was sent to the minor-league camp. Susana is considered one of the top prospects in the Washington system. During his brief look at spring training, the 20-year-old tossed three innings with three punchouts. The right-hander received his first full look of professional baseball during the 2023 season as he logged 63 innings and held a 5.14 ERA with a 1.52 WHIP. He tallied 62 punchouts but showed weak command as he served up 40 free passes. During the 2024 season, Susana logged another 56 1/3 innings at Single-A and held an improved 4.47 ERA with a 1.37 WHIP. He then earned a taste of High-A as he logged a 4.18 ERA with a 1.25 WHIP across 47 1/3 innings. Dynasty managers should expect the right-hander to open the campaign at the High-A level and could push for a Double-A debut.
