Fantasy Impact:

Martinez, struck by a 96-mph fastball in his only plate appearance Monday, is day-to-day with a hip contusion but likely headed to Triple-A Buffalo, not Toronto’s Opening Day roster. The 23-year-old will play daily there. Fantasy managers in dynasty leagues should stash him, as his infield upside could shine midseason if he earns a Blue Jays call-up.
