Travis Shaw’s wife Lindy Berry Shaw gave birth to their daughter in early June. Following the birth, the Brewers immediately placed Travis on family medical emergency leave. Their daughter Ryann developed a condition called hypoplastic left heart syndrome. The condition means the baby did not develop a left portion of the heart that functions properly. Several surgeries are necessary to correct the syndrome. As you might imagine, this scared both Travis and Lindy. It’s a…
Francisco Rodriguez’s ex-wife Daian Pena had to bid him farewell. Who can blame her? K-Rod is known for his “antics” both on the field and off. In the past he’s been known to snap at reporters and drop a myriad of f-bombs when he’s in a mood. That’s really nothing compared to his off-field problems. The most documented antics for K-Rod and Daian was when he beat up Daian’s father. It happened after the Mets…
Carlos Gomez is a stalled prospect, but a stalled prospect who has quickly ascended to the top of fantasy darling lists in the span of the past calendar year. Despite a slow start to his MLB career, Gomez has come on strong to become a five took player for the Milwaukee Brewers. During 2013 spring training, the Brewers rewarded him with a new three year contract securing that Carlos Gomez and wife Gerandy Gomez would…

So when looking at this year’s 3rd basemen rankings, you can’t help but think it’s really shallow especially when taking injuries to ARod, Wright, Lawrie, Hanley, Headley, Middlebrooks, Zimmerman, Freese, Sandoval (and more) into consideration. One healthy name that really stands out is veteran Aramis Ramirez, playing for…
Without flinching,… John Axford is hands down, the coolest guy in Major League Baseball. We could start and end this post with a picture of his mustache, or point you to his inspired Twitter account of @johnaxford and very few people would challenge our opening salvo,… but with The Ax Man there’s so much more. Axford was originally drafted in the 7th round of the 2001draft, but rejected the contract in favor of taking a…
Jordana Lenz is the youngest cast member of the upcoming VH1 Reality Show, Baseball Wives, at only 23 years old. To be honest, Jordana was the only member of the cast we’d never heard of before, so we had to do some digging on her. Jordana identifies herself as an Actor/Director on her Facebook page. From her profile, it’s fully evident that we have a deep member of the Baseball Wives cast. Here’s her self…
Corey Hart’s wife Kristina Hart is the mother of his four children, Alyssa, Matthew, Ryleigh and a fourth whose name we’ve come up empty on searching for. You may have seen Ryleigh before, at the press conference following the announcement that her father won the final spot on the 2008 All-Star squad. While addressing the media, and holding his young daughter at the podium, Corey’s teammates rushed the stage and showered Corey and Ryleigh with…
