As spring training approaches its conclusion, the Minnesota Twins have several players on the roster bubble, making their performances critical. Pitcher Eiberson Castellano, a Rule 5 draft pick, faces pressure to maintain his spot on the major league roster due to command struggles, while injuries to relievers present an opportunity for him. Second baseman Edouard Julien has showcased his ability to hit fastballs but must improve defensively to secure a place on the team. Outfielder Austin Martin has improved his defensive play and demonstrated speed on the bases. Lastly, left-handed pitcher Kody Funderburk must find consistency to earn a bullpen role.

The Toronto Blue Jays are facing a challenging offseason after finishing last in the American League East. Key areas for improvement include second and third base, as well as strengthening their bullpen and finding a No. 5 starter.

Additionally, the team is in search of a new Director of Amateur Scouting following Shane Farrell's departure to the Detroit Tigers. Farrell, who joined the Jays in 2020, was instrumental in drafting several promising prospects, though the team's overall talent pool remains a concern.
