Fantasy Impact:

Goldschmidt’s 1.077 OPS with three homers this spring shines, but Monday’s back soreness led to his exit against Toronto. He downplays Opening Day risks, remaining day-to-day for the Yankees. Fantasy managers can stay confident rostering him, expecting his elite bat to power New York’s lineup if the minor tweak doesn’t linger into the season.
