Domínguez, Maton Impress in Phillies Win Over TigersThe Philadelphia Phillies returned home to Clearwater, Fl., to take on the Detroit Tigers in their fifth contest of the spring on Tuesday.
Gleyber Torres - Gets $6.25M from YankeesTorres and the Yankees agreed Tuesday on a one-year, $6.25 million contract to avoid arbitration, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.
ImpactHe'll be getting a $2.25 million raise after a 2021 season in which he submitted a career-low .697 OPS over 516 plate appearances. Though Torres has taken major steps backward in the power department since slugging 38 home runs in 2019, he wasn't a total zero for fantasy managers last season thanks largely to the career-high 14 steals he provided. Even if Torres remains active as a runner during the upcoming season, he may not have as clear of a path to high-volume plate appearances compared to previous years. With the recent re-signing of Anthony Rizzo plus the additions of Josh Donaldson and Isiah Kiner-Falefa, Torres will be battling with those three plus DJ LeMahieu for one of the four spots in the Yankees infield when all five are healthy.

His season ended in late August after he required core-muscle surgery, but Hoskins appears to be back to full strength at spring training.
