Fantasy Impact:

With Bradford sidelined to begin the season, Texas will need a temporary replacement, and Leiter has put himself in a strong position with his spring performance. Over 10.2 innings, he has posted a 13:6 K:BB while allowing three runs, though command remains a concern after walking five in his latest outing. Leiter’s stuff has shown improvement, and his dominance at times this spring makes him a serious contender for the role. The battle between him and Rocker could come down to the final days of camp.
