• The Angels are shopping Christian Moore, Zach Neto, end Josh Lowe, in hopes of coming up with a big arm. But so far, the only offers they have are for names like Jeff Hoffman, Grant Taylor--whose Viagra contract has really increased his stock, so Chris Getz has started asking for more in return--and Parker Messick.


• The Red Sox are openly shopping for a bat, and are dangling Sonny Gray as bait. Detroit might be interested, and might be willing to part with Matt Vierling, but Tigers GM Jeff Greenberg, who has been twirling under the pressure lately, needs to make a move if only to not look like such a mountain, will agree only if able to shed Zach McKinstry's salary.


• Did I imply that Michael Conforto is positive?


• The Diamondbacks pitching staff is tender, and the hope is that a fifth starter emerges from amidst Kevin Ginkel, Drey Jameson, and Juan Morillo--hoping for a big comeback after his diagnosis of the Goldens--to put less pressure on the offense.
