Spencer Strider - Fans three in first spring start Strider gave up three hits and a walk over three scoreless innings while striking out three in Saturday's Grapefruit League game against the Orioles.

Impact The right-hander has yet to allow a run through his first five spring innings, posting a 4:2 K:BB. Strider is coming off a dazzling rookie season that saw him top 200 strikeouts despite pitching only 131.2 innings for Atlanta, and the 24-year-old right-hander could emerge as a true ace in 2023 if his changeup joins his high-90s fastball and nasty slider as a plus offering.

Michael Harris II - Pops first spring homer Harris went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Saturday's Grapefruit League game against the Orioles.

Impact Hitting third in the order, the young center fielder ripped a Tyler Wells offering down the right-field line in the first inning for his first homer of the spring. Harris is 4-for-10 to begin his spring, and the 2022 NL Rookie of the Year has his sights set on a huge fantasy season after coming just one home run short of a 20-20 campaign last year despite playing in only 114 games for Atlanta.

Emmanuel Rodriguez - Making progress in return Twins director of player development Drew MacPhail told reporters that Rodriguez (knee) could return to action in the "next week or two," Sam Dykstra of MiLB.com reports.

Impact Rodriguez tore the meniscus in his right knee last June and missed the second half of the 2023 season. The 20-year-old was putting up stellar numbers prior to the injury with a .272/.492/.551 slash along with nine homers over 199 plate appearances. Considered one of the more intriguing prospects in the lower levels, Rodriguez has a good chance of providing fantasy relevance in the coming years.

Jose Miranda - In lineup as DH Miranda (shoulder) is in the lineup as the designated hitter and hitting second in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Tigers.

Impact Miranda has been dealing with a sore shoulder that has kept him out of the lineup for the past few days. The infielder is expected to be ready for Opening Day, but he may be limited to first base and designated hitter in the early part of the campaign.
