Los Angeles Angels first baseman Jared Walsh will be excited to leave Spring Training behind when regular season games begin on Thursday. It's been a quiet performance for the 27-year-old, slashing only .209/.280/.233 with only one extra-base hit through 43 exhibition at-bats. Walsh is coming off a promising 2020 shortened season that saw the slugger end the season white-hot. Over his final 22 games last year, Walsh slashed an impressive .337/.368/.744 with two triples, four doubles, nine home runs and 26 runs batted in. The Angels have envisioned a larger role for Walsh this season and should get an ample leash to work through any ineffectiveness he has shown in Spring Training. Walsh is a roll of the dice in standard fantasy formats but could become an asset over time during the 2021 season.--Joey C - RotoBaller

Texas Rangers first baseman Jared Walsh was designated for assignment on Saturday. The move was correlated with activating Nathaniel Lowe off of the injured list. Walsh hit below league average in his early season stint, slashing .226/.317/.321 in 60 PA and has been a subpar hitter since his breakout years in 2020 and 2021. With the lefty off of the Rangers active roster, Lowe will take on the starting role at first base. Utility player Ezequiel Duran will see decreased playing time as well. Fantasy managers should only have interest in Lowe at this time.--Kevin Larson - RotoBaller

Texas Rangers first baseman is not in Sunday's lineup as the Rangers will play the rubber match of a three-game set against their division rival Houston Astros. Walsh has done well with his new team, as he is riding a solid .250/.333/.354 line with one round-tripper and seven RBI. Walsh will cede first base duties to utility man Ezequiel Duran. Duran comes into Sunday's game with a .188 AVG and will bat eighth. Duran will not be a popular play in DFS as he will face Christian Javier who has a 1.10 ERA and 1.16 WHIP over his first three starts.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

Texas Rangers first baseman Jared Walsh went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run versus the Chicago Cubs in the Cactus League on Sunday. Walsh is coming off of some injury plagued and underperforming seasons for the Los Angeles Angels, but has been on fire for his new club this spring with a .303 batting average to go along with three homers and six RBI in 33 at-bats. With first baseman Nathaniel Lowe (oblique) potentially missing Opening Day, Walsh would remain a strong replacement. Walsh doesn't have an everyday role without an injury, but his strong spring should allow him to break camp with the big-league roster. For now, he can safely be left on the waiver wire.--Daniel Burdeen - RotoBaller

The Texas Rangers signed free-agent first baseman Jared Walsh, infielder Matt Duffy and left-hander Blake Taylor to minor-league deals with invitations to major-league spring training on Thursday. Walsh was a first-time All-Star with the Los Angeles Angels in 2021, when he hit .277 (147-for-530) with a career-high 29 home runs in 144 games. However, he fell on hard times the last two seasons, hitting a combined 19 home runs, and injuries limited him to 39 games in 2023 before he was cut. If Walsh can get healthy, he could find his way back to the big leagues as a bench bat for the World Series champions. Duffy, 33, hit .251/.306/.325 with two home runs and 16 RBI in 78 games for the Kansas City Royals in 2023. He'll give the Rangers defensive versatility as not much more than infield depth in 2024.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
