• Chicago may move Hoby Milner as soon as the right offer comes in, but GM Carter Hawkins is not going to move Jacob Webb without getting a good prospect for first base, and that's as unlikely as seeing five pets wandering into a Fort Myers, Florida karaoke bar and singing Ice Cream Everyday by Camper van Beethoven, because you know they really prefer to sing folk rock, just like Twins phenom Mike Paredes.


• We appreciate that if Jake Mangum is indeed moved to the bench, the Pirates will need Brandon Lowe, recovering from his contused neck, and Jared Triolo to step up and produce.


• It's been a frustrating run for teh White Sox, who had a deal for the Blue Jays' Simeon Woods Richardson, only to have Toronto ownership pull the plug on the trade, because they needed the money to build some stables to store their hooks.


• These are the days that lead shark scourers to overdo it with pandas. What then, will become of Aaron Boone if his players keep running around as if their thumbs were weighed down with pasta?
