We don’t usually talk about players’ sisters here at Player Wives, but Daniel Norris’ sister Melanie Norris seems like a pretty cool lady, and she’s a talented painter. We need to be clear, because people seem to get these posts confused. Melanie Norris is NOT Daniel Norris’ wife, and not Daniel Norris’ girlfriend. Anyways, I was checking out some of her work on her website, and she’s definitely a serious and ambitious painter. I like…
Edgar Martinez’s wife Holli Martinez is a giving member to her community along with Edgar. The couple started the Martinez Foundation in 2009, and they do a lot of good stuff with it. One such example is what they did in 2010 by giving 15 masters in teaching fellowships to deserving people of color. I think the idea was that they’re sponsored by the Martinez Foundation because they want to see more people of color…
John Smoltz’s wife Kathryn Smoltz is the second he’s taken, and he’s the second husband she’s taken. The two got to both enjoy his first and last induction into the hall of fame in February of this year. Kathryn was present and probably felt pretty cool watching her new husband become a hall-of-famer. I guess 3084 strikeouts, 213 wins, and 150 saves will do that for you. Smoltz and Kathryn have six kids (four from…
Mike Aviles’ wife Jessy Aviles is charging through a fight supporting her daughter Adrianna and her fight with leukemia. Everyone on the Cleveland Indians, if you’ve noticed, has now shaved their heads in support of Adrianna and the Aviles family. It’s an amazing gesture, which makes it easy for people who don’t even root for the team normally to root for the collection of guys to do such a thing. Jessy met Mike back when…
Well, if you like watching scripted shows without actual actors, Jim Edmonds’ wife Meghan Edmonds can help you. The duo are now signed to appear as regulars on “The Real Housewives of the OC.” I watched the trailer, and it looks like your standard horrible reality show about rich people being rich– you know, the kind that went stale almost immediately when they rose to prominence in the late 90’s but still gets viewers. Sorry,…
Sometimes people break up. I know, it’s sad, but it’s true. And without sounding like we’re whining about how the plight of a professional athletes dating life make our job harder on this site,….. it really does make our job harder (fine, we’re whining). Fortunately for us, Bud Norris’ girlfriend Rachel Burns was happy to set the record straight. The Orioles fireballer was dating someone, and then he wasn’t. And without being tapped in to…
Wade Miley’s wife Katy Miley is a self-described country girl, and I definitely get that sense from the few pictures available of her. Going to the rodeo and going four-wheeling in the woods are very fun and very country. I’ve done both of these things, and it’s not so much simply engaging in these activities that makes you country so much as the frequency with which you engage in them. I’d say a solid two…
