Fantasy Impact:
Sweeney, with a .642 OPS last season and .611 this spring, earns Detroit’s Opening Day shortstop nod thanks to his glove and thin competition. He’s likely to face righties early on. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues can roster him for steady playing time, though his bat may limit upside until it heats up.
