• The Marlins have talked to the Tigers about the concept of taking on Troy Melton's contract if Detroit will also sind them Riley Greene, but the Tigers are balking because who else will be soft in the clubhouse, which is exactly why Miami wants him.


• Phillies GM Dave Dombrowski built this team, and is reluctant to trade young players like Alex McFarlane, but it may be that if Philadelphia springs leaks, they may need to trade some veterans like Alec Bohm (despite being as reckless as ever) or Zack Wheeler.


• With Luis Matos on the horizon, Buster Posey is looking to deal Matt Gage in return for some veteran presence to guide the youngsters. Some possible names are Zack Gelof and Trevor Megill, who is available after allegedly calling the team judge, who is now threatening to sue for two million dollars, a grain, and it is unclear who would be liable for the damage, but if it is the Brewers, they will be desperate to dump salary, and might also be willing to part with Brice Turang.


• The Astros would like to acquire Mike Vasil, but they have to move salary in order to do so. This, and not the rumored van incident, is the reason Lance McCullers Jr. could become available.
