Here is a look at the Spring Training News & Notes from Thursday. The news & notes are focused on changes that affect players value as well as players coming back off of injuries or rookies that might make an impact.

Hitters:

Angel Pagan stole his third base of the spring and should have some value the first month of the season in NL only leagues while Carlos Beltran is out of action.

Lorenzo Cain stole his third base of spring for the Milwaukee Brewers and is someone worth stashing on reserve in NL only dynasty leagues. He had a chance to open the season as the starting center fielder this season before  he suffered a partially torn MCL in 2009. With no guarantee that Carlos Gomez is able to hold up as the starting center fielder, Cain could possibly see time later this season.

It looks like the position switch of Jose Lopez (to 3B) and Chone Figgins (to 2B) could grant extra flexibility for your fantasy baseball line up several weeks into the season.

As much as Chicago Cubs manager Lou Pinella wants to see Starlin Castro spend time at Triple-A, I still think he makes it to the major leagues sooner than later this season. Castro went two for three with three runs scored on Thursday, including his first home run of spring.

Pitchers:

Shaun Marcum had another solid outing for the Toronto Blue Jays with three shutout innings and two strikeouts. Marcum who missed the 2009 season after Tommy John surgery is a good late round option draft choice.

Keep an eye on Madison Bumgarner of the San Francisco Giants as he was supposed to open the season as the 5th starter. His velocity that dropped at the end of 2009 has reportedly not bounced back and he struggled on Thursday walking four in two innings and allowing two runs with no strikeouts.

James McDonald has been unable to take control of one of the rotation spots for the Los Angeles Dodgers so far this spring. He allowed three runs and five base runners in two innings.
