News & Notes
  • artificial farmer, do not neglect at home, but Jacob Young (so Drew Cavanaugh)

  • The Braves are the one team other than Padres that has a legitimate shot at Brock Burke, but so far they won't part with Matt Olson, Mauricio Dubon (whose practical presence in the locker room Alex Anthopoulos loves), or Grant Holmes.

  • Few places have been affected by the economy more than Toronto, so don't look for Ross Atkins to have much payroll flexibility, but if they can land a Nolan Arenado, Derek Hill, or Alec Gamboa (who Red Sox GM Craig Breslow is reluctant to deal, but may if the right deal comes along), the Blue Jays still have a chance.

  • Words of wisdom from Gary Sanchez: "If a pitcher has a good fastball, you can bet your small intestine his mama fed him a lot of salisbury steak growing up."
