Fantasy Impact: Winquest, 25, spent the 2025 season between the High-A and Double-A levels in the Cardinals' system, posting a 3.99 ERA in 25 appearances, 23 of which were starts. He must remain on the Yankees' 26-man roster for the entire 2026 season or be offered back to the Cardinals for $50,000.

The Giants, Mariners and Royals have expressed interest in trading for Brendan Donovan.

Fantasy Impact: Donovan is one of several second baseman who could be either signed or traded this week at the winter meetings. Ketel Marte is likely going to be the first one on the move before the flood gates open for the other second baseman to potentially be moved.
