For about three hours a day, St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Jose Martinez gets a break. The rest of the time, his mind is 2,100 miles away at his native Venezuela, where political unrest has become a way of life. ''I'm trying to give my son a better life, leave a better country, not worry if something happens to him like get kidnapped or something,'' Martinez said Thursday, the same day the United States ordered relatives of American diplomats to leave Caracas, Venezuela.

The Arizona Diamondbacks have announced that they’ve acquired minor league catcher John Ryan Murphy from the Minnesota Twins in exchange for minor league pitcher Gabriel Moya. Murphy has played in 141 major league games across four seasons, three with the Yankees, one with Minnesota. He has spent the entire 2017 season at Triple-A, hitting .222/.298/.330 with four home runs and 27 RBI over 59 games. Which is not significantly different than what he did in the bigs. He’s 26 and will serve as organizational depth for Arizona. Moya is a 22 year-old lefty who has been the closer for the Dbacks’ Double-A team. He’s had a fantastic 2017 season, posting a 0.82 ERA and a 68/12 K/BB ratio in 43.2 innings. Continue to Article

It’s easy to dismiss the Cardinals since they’re under .500, but this is still a team that could surprise in the NL Central. They aren’t one of the NL’s premier teams like they’ve been in the recent past — the NL Central isn’t exactly setting the world on fire the way it was when the Cubs won 97 games and finished in third in the division — but they’re very much in that “anything can happen in the postseason” zone. They just have to get there first, and there is no guarantee they will. So the question before them is whether it’s worth buying to try to be the weakest division winner in the NL — one potentially worse than either of the wild card teams — or if it’s time to sell to prepare for 2018.
