Look, this is one of those situations in which you should just go add the player before reading the content. This article will still be waiting for you after you have picked up Royals prospect Jac Gaglianone, who was just promoted to the majors on Sunday night.
Go make the add, then return for the details.

Shoo.
[Time passes. Pickups are furiously made.]
OK, thanks for returning. Much appreciated. We sincerely hope you were able to land Caglianone somewhere. Very soon, he’s gonna be rostered in every competitive and semi-competitive fantasy league.
Caglianone’s absolute dominance at the plate has been one of the most significant minor league stories over the first two months of the 2025 season. He has simply toyed with pitching in the high minors, slashing .322/.389/.593 with 15 bombs. Pretty much every Caglianone home run is launched into orbit, becoming a celestial event.
He only needed a dozen games at Triple-A Omaha to demonstrate that he requires a new challenge. In those 12 games, he went 15-for-47, launching six homers, driving in 13 and generally establishing himself as an unstoppable force.

Caglianone has spent most (but not all) of his time at first base this season defensively, but we can expect to see him in right field for the Royals. Vinnie Pasquantino isn’t giving up first base anytime soon. Kansas City’s offense hasn’t made much noise so far this season, but it’s suddenly looking dangerous. Expect significant power contributions from Caglianone, along with batting average upside. He won’t be stealing bases, but he offers every other tool.
If you don’t trust our opinion on prospect matters, here’s a breakdown on Caglianone from a more respected authority:
Bottom line: Caglianone is an impact bat capable of changing the trajectory of KC’s season while boosting your fantasy squad’s potential in the power categories. He should have been stashed well ahead of his promotion to the big leagues. This is an actionable fantasy event, people. You can’t allow Caglianone to fall into the wrong hands. He can be an immediate difference-maker.

Joshua targets early 2026 return before ‘roll of the dice’ Fury mega-fight
Anthony Joshua is on track to return in a comeback fight in early 2026 before a "roll of the dice" blockbuster next summer.After Joshua's loss to Daniel Dubois last September, a lingering elbow injury would not heal and eventually required an operation. That has kept the 35-year-old out of action but he has now resumed training. His next fight back will most likely be in January or the start of February. He would not return to an immediate contest with a top-level heavyweight but will target a tune-up bout against world top-15 calibre opponent before pursuing the biggest names in the division.The ultimate target, though, remains Tyson Fury, a great all-British showdown that has so far eluded Joshua.

Mladá hvězda dala přednost Česku před Nizozemskem. Jednadvacítka má posilu do útoku
„V Dordrechtu pravidelně nastupuje, dává góly. Produktivní byl i v přípravě. Je vysoký, rychlý, s dobrým zakončením. Mohl by být pro nás vhodnou alternativou do útoku,“ řekl Bílek na páteční nominační tiskové konferenci.Eduardo vyrůstal v Nizozemsku, které reprezentoval v nižších mládežnických kategoriích. Například ještě loni v březnu nastoupil za Oranjes proti české osmnáctce. Na podzim 2024 už ale odehrál 3 přípravy za tuzemskou devatenáctku. Teď dostal pozvánku do jednadvacítky, která pod novým trenérem Bílkem vstoupí do kvalifikace o ME U21 v roce 2027.„Byla dohoda, že po první zkušenosti v devatenáctce se trochu odmlčí a rozhodne se, jaký stát bude reprezentovat. S Pavlem Nedvědem (generální manažer českých reprezentací) jsme se pustili do komunikace s ním i hráčovým manažerem. Jsem rád, že se Yannick rozhodl pro nás. Je to typologicky jiný útočník, než které máme,“ podotkl Bílek s tím, že Eduardo mluví obstojně česky.V 16 letech se Eduardo připojil k mládežnické akademii RB Lipsko, s bundesligovým klubem podepsal kontrakt do roku […]
