As we dive deeper into the 2025 Fantasy Baseball season, the injury reports are starting to pile up, and they could have significant implications for our drafts and strategies. Let's talk about some of the key players who are currently dealing with injuries and how their situations might affect your fantasy teams.

First up, Spencer Steer. The Reds have had a rough go with injuries, and now Steer is dealing with a sore shoulder that has lingered since last season. Given his mediocre performance and the Reds' overall bad luck, is he someone you would consider avoiding in drafts? Or do you think he could still provide value if he manages to stay healthy?

Then there's Freddie Freeman, who is recovering from ankle surgery. At 35, how much should we be concerned about his ability to bounce back? Is it time to pivot to younger first basemen like Vlad Guerrero Jr. or Bryce Harper, or do you think Freeman still has enough left in the tank to be a top-tier option?

Trevor Megill's undisclosed injury raises red flags for his role in the Brewers' bullpen. If he misses time, who do you think would step up as the closer? Are you willing to take a risk on him, or is it safer to look elsewhere for relief pitching?

Spencer Strider is another name to watch. Coming back from Tommy John surgery, can he regain his elite form? With his reliance on high velocity, do you think he can sustain it over a full season? Or should we temper our expectations for him this year?

Lastly, what about the prospects like Jung Hoo Lee and Zach Neto? Lee is reportedly 100% after shoulder surgery, but can he live up to the hype after a lackluster debut? And with Neto's offseason surgery, do you think he can maintain the momentum from his rookie season, or is he a player to avoid in drafts?

Let's hear your thoughts! What are your bold predictions for these players? How do you plan to navigate these injury concerns in your drafts? Share your insights and let's get the conversation rolling!
