Fantasy Impact: Lauer will earn $4.4 million this season instead of the $5.75 million he filed for. Manager John Scheider told the media on Tuesday that Lauer will be stretched out as a starter in spring training but he will be hard-pressed to crack the club's deep rotation after adding Dylan Cease in the offseason, while Shane Bieber exercised his player option to return to the club in 2026.

Fantasy Impact: Woodruff will be monitored closely throughout spring training due to his injury history, but he appears healthy and could be the Brewers’ opening day starter. He missed the end of the 2025 season with a lat strain but posted a 3.20 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 83 strikeouts in 64.2 innings.
