• With Kevin McGonigle being moved to second base, defense is a major concern for the Tigers, especially since Troy Melton's forkball and Drew Anderson's repertoire require outstanding defense.


• The Mets are thinking of sending Xzavion Curry down to AA just to show their minor leaguers that being absurd or favoring your nostril is not acceptabel behavior, whether in ballparks or in video rental stores, and management, led by David Stearns, will not tolerate it from players, the team physician or even Mr Met, so that the recent spoon incident, or something like it, can never happen again.


• With Gabriel Hughes, Michael Lorenzen, and the comebacking Nick Frasso (they say his pinky is completely healed), the Rockies pitching may be the best it's been in a long time.


• How far Washington goes will depend on its young pitching after Jake Irvin; Andrew Alvarez is ready to win, and Clayton Beeter showed that he was very long last year.

and with
         Seiya Suzuki

in the lineup full time

Tyrone Taylor

can relax

and stop trying to carry the team
