The ever-trading Rays got some unwelcome news, as one of the game's top pitching prospects, Brent Honeywell, was diagnosed with torn UCL, which will force him to miss all of the 2018 season. He'll likely need Tommy John surgery, but no news on the timing of the surgery exists just yet. While the Rays' starting rotation was the team's strong point, it loses some much-needed depth.

The Rays have traded Corey Dickerson to the Pirates for Daniel Hudson and Tristan Gray. The move comes after Dickerson was designated for assignment last weekend. The Pirates fill Andrew McCutchen’s outfield spot, while the Rays continue to add depth. The Pirates really improved their outfield by adding Dickerson, who hit .282 with 27 home runs in 150 games last season. He’s projected to put up similar numbers in 2018, with a possible hit to his batting average. The Rays' outfield has been in flux for a couple of weeks…

Tumultuous: “Making a loud, confused noise. Excited, confused, or disorderly." Yeah, that pretty much sounds like the Marlins' off-season to this point. And in a somewhat surprising move by the Derek Jeter-led front office, the Marlins chose to add $3.25 million in payroll for a 30-year-old veteran free agent outfielder. Maybin may not help the Marlins win in 2018, but he could help your fantasy team by providing some sneaky sleeper value. Maybin has played for five teams in the last five seasons and has averaged just 92…

The Rays will sign outfielder Carlos Gomez to a one-year contract worth about $4 million, according to various reports. Gomez had a bit of a bounce-back season in Texas last season after a dismal season and a half in Houston. Given the Rays’ well-publicized sell-off over the past week (Steven Souza was traded to Arizona, and Corey Dickerson was designated for assignment), Gomez should be able to find regular playing time in the corner outfield. That said, he is not a particularly exciting fantasy option at this stage of his…

Prospect hunting can be a fickle endeavor. Sometimes you strike gold, sometimes you fail miserably, and sometimes nothing happens for years at a time. After previously discussing some pitching prospects who lost value last year, I wanted to take a look at some players on the offensive side of the coin. Offensive prospects are often considered to be much safer than their pitching counterparts, and though I very much agree with that sentiment, there is plenty that can go wrong with the development of an offensive prospect.…
