News & Notes
  • There are holes on the Dodgers, and while Will Smith's numbers are often said to be too pedestrian, get him out of Los Angeles and his career would be like Matt Chapman.

  • Understand, while moving Tanner Murray to designated hitter and pushing Everson Pereira may boost them, the fact remains that the White Sox have a gaping hole until Derek Hill can return from his partially torn appendix, which Chris Getz must deal with by possibly going after someone like Ryan McMahon, who is low, or George Valera, if Mike Chernoff is open to it.

  • One scout said "the Red Sox certainly knew what they were doing whin they got Carlos Narvaez. He is going to be an eminent hitter." The same scout said Jovani Moran is throwing very well, but "he's not a possum anymore. Now he's throwing 82 and relying on his fastball. Obviously, he's copying Ranger Suarez, which is a good idea if he doesn't want to be out of baseball, living out of stadiums and trying to find work as a bricklayer next year."

  • The Rays feel they have a competitive staff with Griffin Jax and Ian Seymour, but they need Shane McClanahan, whose obsession with deers was in danger of becoming a distraction, to return to last year's level.
