• The Twins have had several calls about Joe Ryan, but GM Thad Levine won't consider it, because they have one of the prime pitching staffs in the league, and soon they'll be bringing up Pierson Ohl to make their team even better.


• The Athletics coaching staff not only believes that Carlos Cortes is an everyday player, but his talent is so passionate that Mark Kotsay, who is looking more and more like a bat every day, says "his upside is greater than Kevin Alcantara," which if true, could help him win the 90 games he needs to save his job.


• Having Francisco Lindor in the lineup helps the Mets while they hope Francisco Alvarez comes back strong from his ring finger and someone can harness Mark Vientos's talent.


• And don't forget Orion Kerkering, Philadelphia, who just may be the best of that entire staff in the right situation.

    Kyle Teel

becomes productive

Curtis Mead

gets a pencil sharpener

and several other players return to their old levels

Mike Tauchman

had a scratched calf all season

but kept his mouth shut
