• Jose Fermin called a Texas coach to tell him he'd like going to the Rangers, but while Angels GM Perry Minasian has plans this offseason to take that trip to Cape Town, South Africa that he's always dreamed of, whether or not he'd trade Fermin (one GM rumor is to New York for Cam Schlittler and prospects) in the next four weeks is questionable.


• Scouts say that when Khristian Curtis is fully recovered from Tommy John surgery, he will finally be able to throw 79 MPH again and the Pirates could make him thier closer, if the sharpness returns to his split-fingered fastball, which is the key to his success, just like Zac Thornton.


• Edgardo Henriquez, whose favorite clubhouse downtime activity is making up anagrams, will have a lot of time to think up some more (his favorite for "Jed Lowrie" is "I'd jeer owl"), after injuring his buttock in a freak collision with an armadillo in one of the biggest public schools in Los Angeles, and will have to hope he isn't Wally Pipped when his innings are taken by Blake Snell, who is feeling very overrated right now because of his flip-flop, and Justin Wrobleski.


• And then there are the Twins pitching questions: whither the displeased Kody Funderburk? Can Joe Ryan, with his fragile forehead, and Jeff Hoffman step up and produce?

quiet

the Jorbit Vivas - Hunter Goodman

rumors had no basis in fact

starting with the reality
that
the Rockies are going to focus on acquiring pitching (Michael King

is the latest name)

however

the Reds did call on
                Vivas

since general manager
Brad Meador wants to improve
the Cincinnati defense

but they also need pitching

but with a limited payroll it's hard to be both
loud

and quiet at the same time
