Tigers get OF Mark Canha from the Brewers for a Double-A relief pitching prospect.

It’d be great if Tim Anderson signed with Cleveland and had to share the left side of the infield with Jose Ramirez.

This makes AJ Burnett one of my favorite players ever.

My Baltimore wish list:
* Front line starter, i.e. Snell, Nola, Sonny Gray. Add that to a solid core of Bradish, Rodriguez and Means and you've got something.
* Back-end bullpen guy. Cano has the stuff to be the closer but there's a huge void in getting to him. Or maybe you swing hard for a guy like Josh Hader (Maryland native) and let Cano get back to his 8th-inning role.
* Veteran bat. Lots of kids ready to come up, but someone like Jorge Soler who can play outfield and fill in at DH would be a nice add.

I like the wish list idea. My wish list for the Yankees:
Soto
Yamamoto
Any batter (preferably left handed) with a sub-.200 k rate.
Someone who wants to trade for Stanton.

Somebody has to bat eighth in the lineup.

They already have about 13 guys who can do that.

That last one doesn't seem to be realistic.

Guardians just underwhelmingly hired Stephen Vogt as manager.

Backup catcher -- knock me over with a feather.

That's Azusa Pacific's Stephen Vogt, to set the record straight. I don't want any confusion in case other Stephen Vogts get jealous.
