Fantasy Impact:

Alvarez remains on schedule in his 6-to-8 week recovery timeline following early-March thumb surgery. The 22-year-old will progress to baseball activities once he builds back strength in the hand, putting a potential late-April return in play. Until then, Luis Torrens is expected to see the bulk of the work behind the plate with Hayden Senger backing him up.
