Cole and Stanton`s injuries raise concerns for the Yankees, while the Athletics secure Butler`s future with a major contract.

Gerrit Cole`s future with the New York Yankees is in jeopardy as he battles a right elbow injury that may necessitate Tommy John surgery. This uncertainty casts a shadow over the Yankees` pitching rotation as they prepare for the upcoming season. Meanwhile, Giancarlo Stanton is grappling with severe tendon injuries in both elbows, raising questions about his availability for the 2025 season.

In a positive turn for the Oakland Athletics, they have secured their rising star, Lawrence Butler, with a lucrative seven-year, $65.5 million contract. This move underscores the Athletics` commitment to nurturing young talent and building for the future.

Spring training has already provided some excitement, with Austin Wells hitting a leadoff home run for the Yankees and Jake Meyers contributing a solo shot for the Houston Astros. However, several top prospects, including Jordan Lawlar and Coby Mayo, are facing hurdles in securing everyday roles in the MLB, as they find themselves blocked by established players on their respective teams.
