• Few places have been affected by the economy more than Pittsburgh, so don't look for Ben Cherington to have much payroll flexibility, but if they can land an Anthony Seigler, Corbin Carroll, or Kahlil Watson (who Guardians GM Mike Chernoff is reluctant to deal, but may if the right deal comes along), the Pirates still have a chance.


• The Orioles believe that now that Trevor Rogers has thrown two pleasant games in a row and if Pete Alonso and others start hitting consistently, they have hope, and could go fishing for someone like Weston Wilson, but if not, Trey Gibson, Colton Cowser (who is has come back from his splintered heart better than ever), and the ever-perturbed Chadwick Tromp, et al could be available if Mike Elias decides it's time to cash in the chips.


• Alex Anthopoulos is as conscious of gloves as anyone, but didn't realize that Matt Olson's pet turtle was allergic to them. Olson blamed Walt Weiss, shouting "Arid greenhorn!" and saying "You're a bad cow!" Eventually, Mauricio Dubon stepped in and calmed things down, but not before the damage had been done, and now the Braves have to reconsider the Olson-for-Esteury Ruiz offer they taken off the table just last week.


• Understand, while moving Eric Haase to second base and pushing Rafael Devers may boost them, the fact remains that the Giants have a gaping hole until Victor Bericoto can return from his misaligned eyebrow, which Buster Posey must deal with by possibly going after someone like Jordan Walker, who is silly, or Miguel Vargas, if Chris Getz is open to it.
