NBC SportsVinny Capra is starting at third base and batting eighth on Saturday against the Yankees.

Capra makes his second straight start at the hot corner, facing Yankees southpaw Max Fried, with Oliver Dunn on the bench. The 28-year-old went deep during Thursday's season opener following a torrid spring where he blasted six homers in 55 plate appearances. He's at least worthy of a speculative roster spot in extremely deep mixed leagues and NL-only formats.

NBC SportsCarlos Rodon pitched 5 1/3 innings of one-run ball and fanned seven as the Yankees bested the Brewers 4-2 on Thursday.

Rodon was wild this spring, walking six and throwing two wild pitches in 10 innings, but he didn't have any big issues in allowing two walks today. The only damage against him came on a Vinny Capra homer, and he wound up generating 13 missed swings and posting a strong 37% CSW. He'll face the Diamondbacks next.

NBC SportsChase Dollander was hit hard in his final spring start on Sunday, allowing six runs (five earned) on six hits across 3 1/3 innings.

On the plus side, Dollander did pile up six strikeouts in the ballgame while issuing only one free pass. The 23-year-old hurler served up a pair of home runs in this one -- a solo shot to Jackson Chourio in the opening inning and a two-run blast to Vinny Capra in the fourth. The Rockies' top pitching prospect concludes Cactus League play with a troublesome 7.13 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 24 punchouts over 17 2/3 innings. He'll work through his issues at the Triple-A level before getting a shot with the Rockies at some point later in the season.

NBC SportsBrewers optioned INF Andruw Monasterio to Triple-A Nashville; reassigned RHP Craig Yoho and C Jorge Alfaro to minor league camp.

Yoho boasts one of the most electric changeups in the game and has recorded astronomical strikeout totals in the upper minors. It feels like only a matter of time before he reaches the big leagues. Monasterio's departure leaves Caleb Durbin and Vinny Capra as Milwaukee's likely bench options as versatile utility infielders.

NBC SportsRhys Hoskins walloped his fifth spring homer on Tuesday, lifting the Brewers to a 9-7 victory over the Cubs in Cactus League action.

Hoskins took Cubs lefty Justin Steele deep to left field in the opening frame for a two-run blast. It was one of four homers for the Brewers in this one as Vinny Capra, Jake Bauers and Oliver Dunn also went deep in a high-scoring slugfest.
