Injuries can pinch available slots for minor-league prospects, presenting owners with a dilemma.
Eric Thames (probably) won’t keep up this home-run pace, but he still might be among the elite fantasy first basemen. It’s harder to see Chris Owings and Jett Bandy continuing their respective paces, however.
It’s no longer too early to worry—which is exactly why Mike is concerned.
White Sox prodigy Yoan Moncada takes over the top spot.
Making the most of Marte, who has been suspended for 80 games because of PEDs.
Big names from the prospect world enter the morass of utility players and middle relievers.
What if Taylor Motter’s season were set to showtunes? Is Chad too Kuhl for the room? Will they write songs about the guys filling in for the Dodgers injury brigade?
Early data (and it’s still so early) suggests that Skaggs is starting to get long-awaited results. But keep watching him closely.
He has posted a 1.13 ERA in four starts for the Brewers. Will this success sustain?

King Felix and the Toddfather—unloaded! Jason Vargas—a $21 “zombie”? Taylor Motter—$15 for that gorgeous hair.
Early on, look less at the data while watching more baseball.
Julio Urias might need just a little more stretching in the minors before the Dodgers promote him. Bradley Zimmer can’t stay stuck in the minors forever. Get ready to ride the Reynaldo Lopez train!
The needs of others can outweigh the needs of yourself.
