Fantasy Impact:

Rice’s 5 homers and .848 OPS in 69 spring plate appearances capitalize on Giancarlo Stanton’s elbow woes Tuesday, earning him a versatile DH role with potential first base and catcher stints. Fantasy managers in all leagues should roster him, banking on his power for solid value in New York’s 2025 lineup early on.
