Dynasty League Sells - Players To Trade Away for Fantasy Baseball

"Selling high" is often misconstrued as selling at the absolute peak of value in fantasy baseball.

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Lourdes Gurriel Jr. got the start at first base in the Cactus League finale against the Cleveland Guardians on Tuesday and went 0-for-1 with a walk and a strikeout in the 3-1 win.

Jared Walsh, Max Stassi Opening On The Injured List

Los Angeles Angels first baseman Jared Walsh (head) and catcher Max Stassi (hip) will open the 2023 regular season on the injured list.

Keston Hiura DFA'd, Sal Frelick Reassigned

Milwaukee Brewers infielder Keston Hiura was designated for assignment on Monday, while outfield prospect Sal Frelick was reassigned to minor-league camp.

Bobby Dalbec, Jorge Alfaro Optioned To Minors

Boston Red Sox first baseman Bobby Dalbec was optioned to Triple-A Worcester on Monday. The Red Sox also sent catcher Jorge Alfaro to minor-league camp.

Owen Miller Makes Opening Day Roster

Milwaukee Brewers infielder Owen Miller has made the Opening Day roster. It's a bit surprising, but Miller did play well this spring. He'll serve in a versatile super-utility role for the Brewers.

Cincinnati Reds corner infield prospect Christian Encarnacion-Strand (back) isn't expected to return to game action until anytime between April 19-24 due to a slight herniation disc in his back.

Triston Casas Officially Makes Opening Day Roster

Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora met with first baseman Triston Casas to tell him that he has made the Opening Day roster.

Brandon Belt Back In Lineup Against Yankees

Toronto Blue Jays first baseman Brandon Belt (illness) is back in the Grapefruit League lineup on Sunday against right-hander Jhony Brito and the New York Yankees.
