Fantasy Impact:
Leiter’s 18-pitch live BP Wednesday marks his return from a back issue since March 6, eyeing the Yankees’ Opening Day bullpen pending one or two more spring games. His confidence grows. Fantasy managers in deep leagues should roster him, expecting the righty’s arm to secure a relief role for New York early in 2025 if he clears final hurdles.
