Some notes from around the league:

• The Phillies have signed Brett Myers to a three-year extension that will keep him in burgundy through the end of the decade. Good for the Phillies, not as good for the women of Philadelphia.

• Tony Armas Jr. is off the market, having signed a one-year deal with the Pirates worth $3 million. Seems like a decent risk for the Bucs, considering what mediocre pitching is going for these days.

• The Diamondbacks have made some crummy deals over the years. It's hard to argue with #1.
