Mar 21 2026
With many of your drafts set to begin over the weekend, let's take an early look at each team's projected Opening Day lineups and relevant spring training news to identify guys whose stock has changed during the spring.

Let's start with the American League, with dollar values shown for a 15-team 5x5 mixed league. You can find the same exhibits for the National League here.
