News & Notes
  • The sweet old dedicated et al Kameron Misner during the recent season, could and what is more did tell just what every pitcher was throwing before he threw, for his teammate, Tyler Tolbert who batted hundreds (and hundreds) of times but never studied read watched video et al to improve, while his manager Matt Quatraro hoped that he would learn of course, he became hoarse talking about how it was a privilege and if only he would--meanwhile Luinder Avila, Lucas Erceg et al watched quietly on the bench, from the clubhouse et al (dreaming et al, of the battle, the competition and of the et al).

  • Carlos Mendoza, seemingly, is the right manager for the Mets, understands the park, and may have a team that reminds some of the Cubs or the Nationals, and may be much more grumpy than a lot of people realize.

  • The Padres feel they have a competitive staff with Kyle Hart and Randy Vasquez, but they need Mason Miller, whose obsession with strawberries was in danger of becoming a distraction, to return to last year's level.

  • Rangers GM Ross Fenstermaker has been on the phone all week trying to work a three-way deal with the Marlins and Red Sox that would send Jake Bennett to Texas, Jacob deGrom to Miami, and superprospect Eury Perez to Boston.
