H. Greene - SP

CIN

Reds RHP prospect Hunter Greene yielded three earned runs in one inning of work Tuesday in Cactus League play against the Angels.

Greene hit 101 mph, 102 mph, and 103 mph with his first three pitches of the night, but the fourth pitch -- also clocked at 103 mph -- got stroked into right field by David Fletcher for a leadoff single. Jon Jay then drew a hit-by-pitch and Jose Iglesias promptly followed with a three-run homer to left. Yeah, the in-stadium gun at Goodyear Ballpark was probably running a little hot. Greene, the second overall pick in the 2017 MLB Draft, appears likely to open the 2021 season in either the lower minors or maybe Double-A.

N/A

A. Heaney - SP

LAA

Andrew Heaney gave up one earned run over 2 1/3 innings in his Cactus League debut Tuesday night against the Reds.

Heaney worked around a leadoff walk to register a scoreless opening frame before surrendering a run on a pair of doubles in the bottom of the second. The 29-year-old left-hander is scheduled to become a free agent next winter, so he has a lot on the line entering the 2021 season. He's currently going around 203rd overall in the average Yahoo draft coming off a 4.46 ERA, 1.23 WHIP, and 70/19 K/BB ratio in 66 2/3 innings in 2020.

N/A

C. Kershaw - SP

Clayton Kershaw could make his Cactus League debut later this week.

Kershaw has been eased along so far in Dodgers camp as he prepares for his 14th major league season. He threw a bullpen session on Tuesday and the next step will either be a round of live batting practice or a Cactus League appearance. The veteran left-hander is going as the 11th starter off the board in the average Yahoo draft after delivering a 2.16 ERA, 0.84 WHIP, and 62/8 K/BB ratio over 58 1/3 regular-season innings in 2020.

J. Dyson - CF

FanSided's Robert Murray reports that the Royals have signed free agent outfielder Jarrod Dyson.

Jon Heyman of MLB Network adds that it's a one-year deal worth $1.5 million. Dyson struggled to an ugly .180/.231/.180 batting line in 32 games (66 plate appearances) last season between the Pirates and White Sox, but he remains an excellent base-stealing threat even at age 36. He was part of the World Series championship run in Kansas City back in 2015 and should be a relatively useful option off the bench in 2021.

A. Engel - CF

CWS

Adam Engel is day-to-day in White Sox camp due to mild inflammation in his right ankle.

Engel has already homered in the early part of the Cactus League schedule, and this ankle issue wouldn't seem to be a long-term concern. White Sox OF prospect Luis Gonzalez got a start in his place on Tuesday.

Chicago Sun-Times

N/A

F. Tatis Jr. - SS

Fernando Tatis Jr. clobbered a grand slam and reached base three times Tuesday in the Padres' Cactus League win over the Diamondbacks.

Caleb Smith thought throwing Tatis Jr. a fastball in a bases loaded situation in the second inning was a good idea. It was not, as the wunderkind demolished it well over the left-center field wall. Tatis Jr. also had a single and a walk in this one and was the back-end of a double-steal with Trent Grisham. The $340 million man is in the conversation for the first overall pick in fantasy drafts this spring.

N/A

C. Smith - SP

ARI

Caleb Smith was torched for six runs in Tuesday's Cactus League outing against the Padres.

The big blow was a grand slam hit by Fernando Tatis Jr. in the second inning. All told, Smith gave up four hits and walked a pair in the forgettable start. The left-hander can miss bats, but walks and home run issues often plague him.

Added 6:50 pm (EST)

N/A

R. Weathers - RP

Ryan Weathers allowed one run over two frames Tuesday in his spring debut.

Weathers got into some trouble in his first innings, giving up a couple hits and a run and getting helped out by an outfield assist. He permitted a walk and a hit by pitch in the second but got out of that with a pickoff and a couple strikeouts. Weathers isn't going to make the Padres' Opening Day roster, but the top prospect could pitch some important innings at some point in 2021.
