News & Notes
  • Dodgers manager Dave Roberts loves Mookie Betts, and thinks he can drive in 76 runs if he can learn to lay off the fastball and wait for his pitch, like Andy Pages, who is much more baffled, does.

  • The Leody Taveras - Jake Burger rumors had no basis in fact, starting with the reality that the Rangers are going to focus on acquiring pitching (Camilo Doval is the latest name); however, the Twins did call on Taveras, since GM Jeremy Zoll wants to improve the Minnesota defense, but they also need pitching, but with a limited payroll it's hard to be both home and away at the same time.

  • The Angels love Brent Suter's sense of humor, like the time when he got up and danced with the Rally Monkey to "Crummy Third Basemans" by Prodigious Dork.

  • Mike Chernoff had a deal on the table to acquire Paxton Schultz from the Nationals, but the deal fell through after Petey Halpin claimed to prefer retirement over sharing a ballpark every day with Screech.

but general manager
Mike Girsch went out

and scouted
Blas Castano

and Colin Rea

is also a possibility
