Daulton Varsho is not the only Blue Jay struggling, but he is perhaps the most prominent player doing so, leaving the door open for others to pick away at his PT. Also: Stowers' return in BAL, Casas' struggles in BOS, Schmidt's flaw in NYY, and Fairbanks' scare in TAM.

Is Yennier Cano this year's Félix Bautista? BAL certainly hopes so. In addition: Bello's demotion in BOS, Peraza's opportunity in NYY, Walls' surprising emergence in TAM and Pearson's return to the majors in TOR.

TOR's Alek Manoah is off to a slow start, but the Blue Jays are standing by their man. Should you? Also: Irvin's demotion in BAL, Sale's struggles in BOS, eras may be ending in NYY, and the impact of Siri's return in TAM.

By one measure, no one has started a Yankees career better than RHP Jhony Brito. But will that start buy him a prolonged stay in the New York rotation? Also: a potential boost for Vavra in BAL, a rotation glut in BOS, a narrow opening for Bruján in TAM, and a pair of underachievers in TOR.

TAM OF Josh Lowe has been one of the winners on early-season lineup cards, while TOR 2B Whit Merrifield has been one of the losers. What are some of the other early lessons?

Like Anthony Volpe, Oswaldo Cabrera has made the Opening Day roster in New York. But what will his playing time look like? Also: further thoughts on Rodriguez and Vavra in BAL, Alfaro's demotion in BOS, some new bullpen arms in TAM, and Pearson's future in TOR.

Have a couple of shaky spring outings placed Grayson Rodriguez's rotation spot in jeopardy? Also: Dalbec dilemma in BOS, roster thoughts in NYY, Lowe moves up totem pole in TAM and Varsho to be platooned in TOR?

Anthony Volpe is doing everything he can to claim the NYY starting shortstop job. Will he succeed? Also: shortstops waiting behind Mateo in BAL, Tapia stakes claim in BOS, Mead makes an impression in TAM, and last bench spot up for grabs in TOR.

Bobby Dalbec is off to another hot spring start. Should we buy in? Also: Hays' challengers in BAL, the left field battle in NYY, Raley versus Lowe in TAM, and two young names to know in TOR.

Maybe OF Masataka Yoshida won't be the leadoff hitter in BOS after all. But who will be? Also: Vavra's hot start in BAL, Holmes' supporting cast in NYY, Taj's time could be now in TAM, and Merrifield's opportunity in TOR.

If the Red Sox are to exceed expectations in 2023, OF Masataka Yoshida may have to be a linchpin. Also: bullpen thoughts in BAL, trade winds swirl in NYY, Díaz moves across diamond in TAM, and pecking order behind Romano in TOR bullpen.
