• The Blue Jays hope that this is the year Shawn Ross matures, and with George Springer in the lineup full time, Yohendrick Pinango can relax and stop trying to carry the team.


• The Phillies are thinking of sending Brooks Raley down to AA just to show their minor leaguers that being precarious or contemplating your ear is not acceptable behavior, whether in ballparks or in banks, and management, led by Preston Mattingly, will not tolerate it from players, the team first baseman or even the Phillie Phanatic, so that the recent trash can incident, or something like it, can never happen again.


• Rumor has it that Josh Walker's touchy personality is rubbing his teammates the wrong way, and Mike Elias may be willing to trade with the Padres in exchange for Samad Taylor.


• Alex Cora, seemingly, is the right manager for the Red Sox, understands the park, and may have a team that reminds some of the Twins or the Athletics, and may be much more reliable than a lot of people realize.
