Someone let all of the Sasquatch hunters know – we found him. He was in the crowd at Coors Field today watching the Padres and Rockies. I wonder if San Diego offered him a contract after the game – he could probably out hit half of their current lineup.

This isn’t something you see every day…this play looks just like your typical deflected line drive until you watched the slow motion replay. Then you realize that Kevin Kiermaier hit the ball so hard that he went through the webbing of Eric Hosmer’s glove. Wild.

In all honesty…I expected worse.

The chaos in the desert isn’t even funny anymore, it’s just sad – starting pitcher Bronson Arroyo, who the team signed to a two-year, $23.5 million contract this offseason, will require Tommy John surgery and will miss the remainder of the 2014 season (and probably, a good chunk of 2015 as well). Let’s try to […]

The Minnesota Twins are experimenting with a new concession feature that could make fans at next week’s All-Star Game extremely happy – they’ve introduced self-serve beer stations. To use one of the stations, fans will need to show their ID at a cash register and load a card with either $10 or $20. They’ll then […]

During Sunday’s Astros-Angels game, Angels pitcher Mike Morin did what he was supposed to do on this pop up – he got out of the way, and let his infielders take care of it. But then, something strange happened, and Morin was spurred into action. Yup – Hank Conger and C.J. Cron collided, and neither […]

I’m an unapologetic fan of Bryce Harper, even if he sometimes is an emotional, childish wreck of a man at times. On Sunday, he showed off a very tiny bit of that childish streak when he tried to break his bat over his knee following a sixth inning strikeout. The key word, of course, is […]

The dismantling of the Arizona Diamondbacks has taken another step forward, as pitcher Brandon McCarthy has been dealt to the New York Yankees. McCarthy has an unsightly 5.01 ERA this season, his second in the desert. However, that ERA masks a tremendous 4.65 strikeout to walk ratio that ranks as the ninth-best mark among qualified […]

When Yasiel Puig makes a great catch, we don’t blink all that much anymore. When he makes a great throw, it’s almost old hat by now. But when Puig lays out to make a catch at the edge of the warning track, jumps to his feet, and throws a runner out at third base? Yeah, […]

Upon further review, you could probably call this guy a “ballman” rather than a ballboy, but clearly, he didn’t want to get hit by this first inning Matt Holliday line drive.

When your division rival goes all-in by picking up two of the best starting pitchers on the trade market in one trade, what do you do to respond? Well, if you’re the Los Angeles Angels, the answer is “acquire a fifth outfielder and a LOOGY”, of course. The deal is Joe Thatcher and Tony Campana […]

Career minor leaguer Zelous Wheeler made his major league debut for the Yankees on Thursday, and smashed his first big league homer. On Friday, Wheeler came in during the eighth inning of the Yankees-Twins game to play third base, and got a chance to grab a pop-up hit by Sam Fuld in the ninth inning. […]

Alright folks, let’s watch this play in Oakland and try to unwrap what happened. With the bases loaded and one out in the second inning, Anthony Gose hit a grounder to first baseman Nate Freiman. Freiman attempted a swipe tag on Munenori Kawasaki, going from first to second, and missed, according to first base umpire […]

Manager Joe Maddon then one-upped the ridiculousness of it all.
