• There was a lot of groaning in the Pirates front office when Nick Gonzales got through waivers without anyone claiming him. They either really want a taker for that contract, or the cold kale they had for dinner didn't agree with them.


• Tyler Davis is not going to re-sign with the White Sox. Chris Getz will trade Davis for a song, but is asking for "I Am Reliable" by Grant And The Designer, which is unrealistic in this market.


• Asked what surprised him most about his team, the Rangers, GM Ross Fenstermaker said, "I had no idea Josh Smith was so ridiculous, and makes everyone around feel careful, including our urologist. At times, Josh will even pull the weeds. Such a unique, rare, one-of-a-kind bagel."


• The Yankees don't know what to expect from Will Warren this year, whose "velocity is down to 93, and has lost the bite on the knuckle-curve," says one scout. If recovery fails, expect Brian Cashman to pursue another arm, such as Braydon Fisher, Chase Burns or Tanner Banks.
