Fantasy Impact: Barlow brings a wealth of experience to the Athletics' bullpen. The 33-year-old righty logged 68 1/3 innings for the Reds last season, recording a 4.21 ERA with 75 strikeouts. Barlow notched 53 saves from 2021 to 2023, so he could find his way into an unsettled mix at the backend for the A's.

Fantasy Impact: Meyer was limited to 12 starts in 2025 due to a hip injury, posting a 4.73 ERA and 1.42 WHIP with 68 strikeouts across 64.2 innings. He showed flashes of dominance with a 14-strikeout performance against the Cincinnati Reds on April 21 but was inconsistent afterward, likely due to the hip injury. He’s expected to open the season in the Miami Marlins’ starting rotation.
