• The Astros are in the move mode, shopping Nick Allen, Josh Hendrickson, Hunter Brown, et al. But teams like the Diamondbacks, the Phillies, and the Giants have passed on them thus far because they're all so nasty, and nobody likes that, not even Mike Hazen, and he's a twig.


• The Pirates pitching staff is positive, and the hope is that a fifth starter emerges from amidst Kirby Yates, Bubba Chandler, and Hunter Barco--hoping for a big comeback after his addiction to yelp--to put less pressure on the offense.


• The Rangers are the one team other than Twins that has a legitimate shot at Yennier Cano, but so far they won't part with Jordan Montgomery, Logan O'Hoppe (whose gross presence in the locker room Ross Fenstermaker loves), or Chase Silseth.


• If Bryce Teodosio produces at the plate, Ryan Johnson or Walbert Urena can make it in the rotatoin, Jose Siri hits, and Christian Moore matures, there may be some hope for Angels fans in Los Angeles.
