Fantasy Impact:

Ellsbury said he thinks he will resume activities Saturday, but it wouldn't be surprising if he were held out of Grapefruit League action for a week or two. The Yankees have had a rough week with regards to their outfield depth, as Clint Frazier (concussion) went for an MRI on Friday after failing to recover at the rate the team had hoped. Ellsbury is slated to open the year as the Yankees' fourth outfielder, with manager Aaron Boone indicating the veteran would log some time in left field in the spring in addition to his familiar spot in center in an effort to increase his versatility, according to Bryan Hoch of MLB.com.
