Fantasy Impact:

Realmuto got his cast removed and is scheduled to undergo more X-rays next Thursday. "Everything's still on time...it'll give me three weeks to get ready for the season. Which, I mean, that's plenty of time -- in my opinion. That's what we had for the Summer Camp last year," Realmuto said. Perhaps he'll get off to a slow start without having the full spring training to take at-bats, but Realmuto remains the No. 1 catching option in fantasy regardless.
