• The Braves clubhouse is tense, after Sean Murphy called Ray Kerr "back face", and now Walt Weiss has a problem, because Spencer Schwellenbach was offended and asked for a trade, which Alex Anthopoulos is hesitant to do, but might if they can get a Mason Barnett, whose weak personality might be just the right thing in the locker room, or Tyler Phillips.


• While the Dodgers are confident that Brock Stewart will develop the touch on his knuckle-curve, and that Justin Wrobleski will bounce back from his case of a hemorrhoidal spine, the question is whether Tanner Scott can match last season.


• Someone broke into the Pirates locker room and stole Nick Gonzales's onions. Billy Cook suspects it was the team barber, and although they had no luck finding it being sold on EBay, Oneil Cruz did pick up a nice ceramic egg for just $67.


• The Padres would like to find a center field upgrade, and A.J. Preller even thought awhile about trading Hunter Stratton for Dansby Swanson after Kevin Kelly refused a deal to San Diego.
