S. Shuman - SP

WSH

Nationals RHP prospect Seth Shuman underwent Tommy John surgery earlier this week.

Shuman was acquired from the Athletics back at the 2021 trade deadline and has yet to pitch above High-A. The 25-year-old righty will miss the entire 2023 season.

M. Contreras - RF

MIN

Twins reassigned OF Mark Contreras, RHP's Randy Dobnak and Brock Stewart, C Jair Camargo and INF Andrew Bechtold to minor league camp.

Contreras got into 28 games last season as a defensive specialist. Dobnak and Stewart have a shot to contribute this season as relief depth for the Twins.

J. Duran - RP

MIN

Jhoan Duran (leg) is scheduled to pitch during Thursday's Grapefruit League contest against the Blue Jays.

Duran told reporters Wednesday that his leg is fine after being hit by a line drive last Sunday while pitching in a minor league game. The hard-throwing righty reliever was diagnosed with a right left contusion and appears on track to be ready for Opening Day. It's not a serious concern for fantasy managers moving forward.

J. Guzman - SS

PHI

Diamondbacks signed SS Jonathan Guzman to a minor league contract.

Guzman spent the last seven years in the Phillies' minor league system and batted .168/.220/.235 with three homers and nine steals across 440 plate appearances last year for Double-A Reading. The 23-year-old middle infielder is merely extra minor depth for Arizona.

D. Pomeranz - RP

SD

Drew Pomeranz (forearm) suffered a mild setback earlier this week and will open the regular season on the injured list due to left elbow inflammation.

Padres manager Bob Melvin described it as a mild setback for Pomeranz, which eliminates him from contention for a spot on San Diego's season-opening roster. The 34-year-old lefty, who missed all of last year recovering from flexor tendon surgery, will continue to play catch, but there isn't a timetable for him to throw off a mound again.

M. Stassi - C

LAA

Max Stassi has left spring training to attend to a family emergency.

Angels manager Phil Nevin said Stassi is expected to return before the end of spring training and be ready in time for Opening Day. If he's not ready to go, it would likely be Logan O'Hoppe behind the plate at the outset of the regular season.

Drew Waters (oblique) has resumed baseball activities.

Waters suffered a left oblique strain early in spring training and isn't expected to return for Kansas City until late April. He's progressed to hitting from the right side and also has been taking dry swings from the left side.

T. Larnach - LF

MIN

Trevor Larnach went 4-for-4 with a solo homer and two RBI on Wednesday, leading the Twins to a blowout victory over the Red Sox in Grapefruit League action.

With Alex Kirilloff (wrist) and Jorge Polanco (knee) set to open the regular season on the injured list, Larnach appears poised to make the Twins' season-opening roster as a corner outfield and designated hitter option. He opened the scoring with a solo homer off righty Tanner Houck in the opening frame and finished a triple shy of the cycle in this one. Not bad at all, folks.
