Notes from Camp: The Angels made a huge splash in the off-season signing the best available hitter, Albert Pujols and one of the top starters in C.J. Wilson. Kendrys Morales has looked good in the spring and is expected to start the season as the team's DH. 2011 Rookie of the Year Mark Trumbo is expected to get at bats at first, third, DH and potentially the outfield.

Key Departures: RHP Trevor Cahill, LHP Gio Gonzalez, RHP Andrew Bailey, OF Ryan Sweeney, LHP Craig Breslow, RHP Guillermo Moscoso, LHP Josh Outman

Notes from Camp: Sensing the winds of change in their division, and the revenue disparity, the A's dealt away Trevor Cahill, Andrew Bailey and Gio Gonzalez. Cuban outfielder Yoenis Cespedes will be the team's starting centre fielder. Oakland also took a flyer on Manny Ramirez, who is suspended for the first 50 games of the season. Slots three through five in the rotation are expected to be filled by Tommy Millone, Tyson Ross and Graham Godfrey who have made a combined 17 major league starts. (Updated: March 26)

Notes from Camp: The Mariners attempts to increase their woeful offence started with the acquisition of Jesus Montero from the Yankees. The club will also move Ichiro from the top of the lineup to third, allowing Chone Figgins to move from second in the order to first. Michael Saunders is expected to open the season as the team's centre fielder until Franklin Gutierrez is fully recovered from a partially torn pectoral muscle. (Updated: March 26)

Notes from Camp: The Rangers, who have been the World Series runners up for the last two years, spent big in the off-season and landed Yu Darvish from Japan. Neftali Feliz, who has battled shoulder tightness in the spring, will look to make the jump from the bullpen into the starting rotation, with Joe Nathan taking over duties in the ninth inning.
