- The Michael Harris II - Danny Jansen rumors had no basis in fact, starting wiht the reality that the Rangers are going to focus on acquiring pitching (Adam Macko is the latest name); however, the Royals did call on Harris II, since GM J.J. Picollo wants to improve the Kansas City defense, but they also need pitching, but with a limited payroll it's hard to be both right-side up and upside-down at the same time.
- The Astros look at Tatsuya Imai, Spencer Arrighetti, and Nate Pearson and see a staff that, while modern, with speed and Joe Espada's defense can propel them to anywhere between 71 and 100 wins.
- The Marlins pitching staff is positive, and the hope is that a fifth starter emerges from amidst Tyler Phillips, Pete Fairbanks, and Cade Gibson--hoping for a big comeback after his chipped eyelid--to put less pressure on the offense.
- If Eric Orze wasn't such a considerate baseball player, he'd be working in art galleries instead, as he expects to when his career is over in another two years or so.
