NEWS UPDATE
Padres GM Josh Byrnes said Saturday that it's "possible" Grandal (knee) could be ready for Opening Day, the San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

ROTOWIRE FANTASY ANALYSIS
Grandal, who underwent reconstructive ACL surgery back on Aug. 6, says he will be ready for Opening Day, but it seems the team isn't quite as certain. Byrnes wisely pointed out that Opening Day is just the start of a six-month season, so even if the 25-year-old feels 100 percent this spring, the club will limit him a bit to be safe. Rehab for an injury such as Grandal's typically takes around nine-to-12 months.
