Fantasy Impact: Schultz was designated for assignment by the Blue Jays recently and found another home in Washington via waivers. The 28-year-old posted a 4.38 ERA across 13 appearances for the Blue Jays in 2025.

Fantasy Impact: Irvin struggled in his third season with Washington, going 9-13 with a 5.70 ERA in 180 innings over 33 starts. The lefthander may not be assured a rotation spot entering the season and will, more than likely, need a solid spring to make the Opening Day roster.
