Austin Wells likely to hit leadoff for Yankees on Opening Day in unexpected move.

Rockies Recap: Kyle Freeland, named opening day starter, charged with seven runs. Royals 10, Rockies 2 Sunday at Salt River Fields On the mound: Kyle Freeland, after officially being named the Opening Day starter, posted a poor line, but he didn't pitch that badly. Spotty defense and some mental miscues hurt the lefty. The Royals tagged him for seven earned runs on five hits over 4 1/3 innings. Freeland walked two, hit a batter and struck out five. The good news is that he threw 76 pitches, 52 for strikes. … Right-hander Jake Bird, a possible long reliever, pitched 1 1/3 innings, giving up two runs on two hits. Bird has a 3.27 ERA. … Closer candidate Seth Halvorsen pitched a scoreless ninth, walking one. At the plate: Sean Bouchard played outfield and first base and hit his

3 Texas Rangers observations: Adolis García keeps cooking, Alejandro Osuna impresses again. The Rangers came up just short on Sunday in their bid to have at least one win on every day they played for the week, leaving the winning run on base in a 7-6 loss to the Chicago White Sox. The Rangers entered the ninth down by five runs, but drew to within one on a wild pitch before non-roster infielder Alan Trejo popped up to end the game. The Rangers, who were off Monday, went 5-1 over the previous five days, the only loss coming in the second half of a set of split squad games on Friday. Here are a few observations from the game that have nothing to do with Jack Leiter.

Alex Cora Hints At Favorite To Win Red Sox Starting Infield Job. The Boston Red Sox only have a few position battles taking place across the diamond during spring training. Perhaps it is the starting second base job still up for grabs. It was thought to be a two-player race between Vaughn Grissom and prized prospect Kristian Campbell when camp opened up. In fact, it looks like David Hamilton is the favorite to take up second base when the Red Sox open their season March 27 against the Texas Rangers.

Jack Leiter, Kumar Rocker should be fix for Texas Rangers' pitching jam, but aren't yet. The solution to the Rangers' pitching jam should be easy and obvious. While Cody Bradford and Jon Gray are out, however long that may be, the answer should be to plug in Jack Leiter and Kumar Rocker into the starting rotation. With a week left in Arizona, the Rangers have been positively effusive about Patrick Murphy, who spent last season as a reliever in Japan, and Adrian Houser, whose ERA over the last three seasons (4.76) is one of the 20 highest in baseball among the 140 with at least 250 innings in that span.

After the San Francisco Giants signed Justin Verlander to a one-year deal, he's looking to reach into the fountain of youth once more and have another productive season under his belt. With the Giants looking to make a splash in the NL West with Verlander, there will be a familiar face around in Pablo Sandoval as the two have history when it comes to the World Series. Sandoval is back with the ballclub during Spring Training, but only as a guest instructor, as him and Verlander had great World Series moments together.

The Boston Red Sox's trade for Garrett Crochet was one of their biggest moves in years and, arguably, the blockbuster move of the offseason, despite Juan Soto's record-breaking contract with the Mets. The Red Sox sent four top prospects, including their catcher of the future, to the Chicago White Sox in return for Crochet to set the latter team's rebuild into full swing after a disastrous 41-121 season the year before. Last season, Crochet was vocal about his willingness to sign an extension with any team he was traded to, and Boston knows it needs to extend the young pitcher to make such a massive trade worth the risk.

After the last two years have gone well but ultimately came crashing down once the postseason came along, the Phillies did not show the level of urgency to improve like many expected them to this winter. Third baseman Alec Bohm was seen as a virtual lock to be traded early on, but it never wound up happening. If Philadelphia wanted to still entertain a deal which would upgrade Bohm's position either now or at the trade deadline, there is a possible target out there who they should absolutely be interested in if he becomes available.

In short, McDaniel said there didn't seem to be a lot of certainty to the talent, which he ranked 16th among all MLB organizations. There were a lot of potential big hits (Kumar Rocker, Jack Leiter, Sebastian Walcott), but just as many potential misses. What's perhaps more troubling is that among the major outlets that rank organizational talent, ESPN had the Rangers' system higher than others.
