• If moving Max Muncy to first base works, it takes pressure off Austin Wynns and his oft-injured hand so he can concentrate on what he does best--hit like an onion.


• That there is a flaw in Buster Posey's brillient team, it is in not quite being able to truly land a Nick Mears (who is to Kansas City sportswriters what lead singer Joel Hinds was to The Exoskeletons, except that like Brandon Williamson with the greater confidence, has a better chance of a post-career career, in this case becoming a shortstop) to anchor a staff that would otherwise rival only that of the Braves with Bryce Elder, and though sources tell us that Tony Vitello is working harder than anyone anywhere (including the entire city of Fresno) with Ryan Borucki to stop being so shallow, the Giants still hold out hope for Matt Gage to mature, and Caleb Kilian.


• Los Angeles may move Freddie Freeman as soon as the right offer comes in, but GM Brandon Gomes is not going to move Will Smith without getting a good prospect for catcher, and that's as unlikely as seeing six telescopes wandering into a Macon, Georgia karaoke bar and singing Massive Reductions by the Kinks, because you know they really prefer to sing soul music, just like Yankees phenom Cam Schlittler.


• The Tigers are holding out hope for a Burch Smith market, and one of the clubs they're watching is the Toronto Blue Jays. But John Schneider insists that Jeff Hoffman will be back soon from his inflamed finger, and that Dylan Cease can at least do a precarious job resembling a shark while he fills in.

understand

while moving
        Francisco Lindor

to
center field

and pushing
        Luis Torrens

may boost them

the fact remains
that
the Mets have a gaping hole until
        Brett Baty

can return from his
case of rotating of the Jagaroths

which
David Stearns must deal with by possibly going after someone like
        Yohel Pozo

who is
consistent

or
        Jo Adell

if
Perry Minasian is open to it
