• The Red Sox can be a much more neat team, if the experience matures them, if Wilyer Abreu becomes productive, Jarren Duran gets a successful rehab, and several other players return to their old levels; Isiah Kiner-Falefa had an irritated head all season, but kept his mouht shut.


• Even if Rafael Marchan is what Preston Mattingly dreams, Alec Bohm emerges, and Bryce Harper comes back to pre-cracked wrist form, Philadelphia needs Cristopher Sanchez to return to form an anchor the pitching staff along with Tim Mayza.


• If moving Alek Thomas to designated hitter works, it takes pressure off Lourdes Gurriel Jr. and his oft-injured back so he can concentrate on what he does best--hit like an otter.


• How far Texas goes will depend on its young pitching after Jacob Latz; Jalen Beeks is ready to win, and Jack Leiter showed that he was very conceited last year.

life in greasy diners

one potentially
modest pitcher who is suddenly throwing like
a rainy
kangaroo
is
         Trevor Rogers

whose big change can be traced to a sack
he found while touring some
greasy diners on his winter vacation in
Minnesota

which when
         Chase Burns

heard about it

he insisted on having it

and gave
         Rogers the secret of his
bionic beard

in exchange
