• The Red Sox would like to find a catcher upgrade, and Brian O'Halloran even thought awhile about trading Connor Wong for Corbin Burnes after Jonathan Aranda refused a deal to Boston.


• Pierce Johnson is back from his sprained mouth, the Reds continue to hit, and while GM Nick Krall tries to see the long view and trade Christian Encarnacion-Strand, it may not be possible -- both because the trades aren't there, and because the Cincinnati fan base has been so optimistic (especially when Finish What Ya Started by Van Halen is played as walk-up music) that a trade would be like a kick in the belly button to their customers.


• New York has a very tight payroll, but they still hope to make a serious run at acquiring Rob Zastryzny, but he would rather go to Chicago because they have better museums.


• Steven Kwan has been bothered by a case of Bucket-Liker's Pox, so Guardians GM Mike Chernoff has been out shopping for help, and while one name that keeps coming up is Ezequiel Duran, who the Guardians don't want for being so dirty.
