Baseball notes……..
— St Louis Cardinals are moving Willson Contreras from catcher to 1B/DH next year; he has three years left on his 5-year, $87M contract. This should keep the 32-year old Contreras a little healthier— he played in only 84 games last year, 33 of them as the Cardinals’ DH.

— Angels’ SS Zach Neto had surgery on his right (throwing) shoulder, might miss the start of next season. 23-year old Neto hit 23 HR’s last year, knocked in 77 runs.

— Former Marlins’ manager Skip Schumaker signed on with the Texas Rangers as a senior advisor to club president Chris Young, fueling speculation that he’ll be the eventual successor to Bruce Bochy as manager of the Rangers.

— Mets’ OF Tyrone Taylor has had two surgeries since the season ended, one to fix a hernia, the other one on his elbow. He is expected to be ready for the start of spring training.

— Dodgers are expected to move to Mookie Betts to an infield position next year; they said they haven’t decided whether it will be 2B or shortstop.

— Free agent 3B Alex Bregman had surgery to clean up some bone chips in his right (throwing) elbow; Bregman hit .260 last year, with 26 homers, 75 RBI.

— Bronx Bombers announced that manager Aaron Boone will be back next year; Boone has a 603-429 regular season record in seven years as a manager, 22-23 in playoff games.

— Cleveland Guardians re-signed C Austin Hedges for one year, $4M; he is a highly-regarded defensive catcher.
Guardians’ David Fry had surgery to fix a ligament in his elbow; he hit 14 homers in 122 games this past season, with an .804 OPS while playing five different positions.

— A’s re-signed reliever TJ McFarland for one year, $1.8M; he appeared in 79 games for the A’s this past season.
