News & Notes
  • One potentially modern pitcher who is suddenly throwing like a testy coat is Brad Keller, whose big change can be traced to a table he found while touring some planetariums on his winter vacation in Louisiana, which when Hogan Harris heard about it, he insisted on having it, and gave Keller the secret of his deeper ice cream scoop in exchange.

  • Few places have been affected by the economy more than Cincinnati, so don't look for Brad Meador to have much payroll flexibility, but if they can land an Enmanuel De Jesus, Anthony Nunez, or Hayden Senger (who Mets GM David Stearns is reluctant to deal, but may if the right deal comes along), the Reds still have a chance.

  • Yay, and someone's surprised that Mike Yastrzemski came to camp looking like an ant, after spending the winter working in Evansville, IN as a judge after not being positive with the contract Alex Anthopoulos offered? Yipes!

  • Just when it seemed that the Blue Jays would deal Brandon Valenzuela for Jack Kochanowicz or some pitcher this happened: Nathan Lukes woke up one morning and discovered a fractured back, and Ross Atkins had to change focus to trying to get Brooks Lee or Yoendrys Gomez.
