Scott Kazmir insisted he’s healthy. Over and over again

Certainly, batted balls travel farther in Arizona. And Spring Training statistics are illusory, since they’re largely being compiled by players who won’t be with clubs once the regular season begins.

Every bunt should end with a bow.

Outside of one pitch to Pittsburgh’s David Freese in the bottom of the sixth inning, the Rays’ Jake Odorizzi could not have asked for a better spring start on Saturday.

Sean Doolittle recovered from a slight triceps strain just in time to be hit with food poisoning this week, so it’s a good thing the A’s closer needed only six pitches to get through a perfect inning against the Royals on Saturday.

Carson Fulmer allowed three runs on seven hits over 4 1/3 innings during the White Sox 5-4 loss to the Dodgers Saturday night at Camelback Ranch, and then the White Sox No. 1 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, was reassigned to Minor League camp.

When the Angels finished their 26th game on Saturday, a 9-8 win over the Padres, they ranked second in the Majors in batting average (.312), second in on-base percentage (.373) and fourth in slugging (.482).

Hisashi Iwakuma threw 81 pitches in a six-inning outing against the Rockies’ Triple-A club on Saturday, getting his work in on a practice field at the Mariners complex.

Matt Duffy hit an RBI single and a solo home run to back Jeff Samardzija and lead the Giants to a 5-2 victory Saturday over the Cubs in front of 15,403 at Sloan Park.

The bad news for Carlos Rodon during Cincinnati’s 9-7 victory over the White Sox on Saturday afternoon at Camelback Ranch stood as the nine runs on 10 hits allowed over 4 1/3 innings.

Add outfielder Yasiel Puig and relief pitcher Yimi Garcia to the staggering list of injured Dodgers.

In the sports-mad Luhnow household in the Lomas de Chapultepec neighborhood of Mexico City, where the Luhnow boys grew up, they never would have fathomed that Jeff would return to their hometown as the general manager of the Astros.

Albert Pujols and Kole Calhoun hit back-to-back home runs and Andrew Heaney pitched five solid innings as the Angels beat the split-squad Padres, 8-3, at Tempe Diablo Stadium on Saturday.

Justin Upton took a while to hit his first home run in a Tigers uniform, but he made it a big one, then another, hitting two tape-measure drives to the depths of Bright House Field in the Tigers’ 6-5 win on Saturday against the Phillies.

This was anything but your typical Spring Training game. The music was pumping between innings with more energy, a large crowd was into the action and the Astros and Padres soaked in the vibrant atmosphere on Saturday night at Estadio Fray Nano.

The Orioles’ offense is finally clicking, and Baltimore has a three-game winning streak because of it. After launching three home runs in a win against the Pirates on Thursday, the O’s hit five in Friday’s 10-inning win against the Yankees and four more in Saturday’s 16-8 rout of the Red Sox.

This weekend’s Mexico City Series could set the stage for Major League Baseball having a bigger presence in Mexico City, including the possibility of hosting regular-season games, and perhaps even being home to a Major League team one day, Commissioner Rob Manfred said on Saturday.
