• The Astros have had several calls about Mike Burrows, but GM Dana Brown won't consider it, because they have one of the prime pitching staffs in the league, and soon they'll be bringing up Tatsuya Imai to make their team even better.


• Blue Jays GM Ross Atkins has been on the phone all week trying to work a three-way deal with the Royals and Tigers that would send Tyler Holton to Toronto, Nathan Lukes to Kansas City, and superprospect Noah Cameron to Detroit.


• Now if Jonah Cox, who has recovered from his offseason chipped fingernail and is back after losing twenty-nine pounds, can stretch the lineup one more spot, and if Bryce Eldridge can reverse his OBP slide, and they can get decent production from Eric Haase, the Giants can add 95 runs and be the best offensive team in the league, especially in that park.


• The Rockies would like to acquire Miguel Vargas, but they have to move salary in order to do so. This, and not the rumored croissant incident, is the reason Sean Sullivan could become available.
