I just paid $25 to park at Marlins Park. ... You can buy a ticket to the game on StubHub for $13.

Carlos Correa fractures a rib during a massage at home. Ummm... ok. Great talent who gets hurt a lot. Altuve and Springer also out. As is Diaz.

Went to game vs Cubs in Memorial Day and basically watched a AAA lineup. And man do Cubs fans ever represent. That game was a blast with each side having about equal support in a sold out stadium.

Great job, lady.

Worst agent in baseball.

Zobrist is going through a divorce because his wife cheated on him. He is away from the Cubs so they don’t have to pay him. With that extra money they signed Kimbrel

All so these teams didn’t have to give up a draft pick.

Keuchel signs for 1 year, $13 million. The Astros qualifying offer he turned down? One year $17.9 million.

BOSTON (CBS) – David Ortiz has reportedly been shot during a robbery attempt in the Dominican Republic.

Ortiz was shot and wounded at an amusement center in Santo Domingo, his father told ESPN’s Enrique Rojas.

Saw the video, looks like he was just hanging out at a club/restaurant.

Sounds like he's going to be ok, thankfully.

This was really upsetting news last night, and I hope he makes a full recovery soon so I can start making jokes about how he must have been crowding the shooter's line of fire.

Sounds like Ortiz may have been fooling around with a drug lords wife. Or something along those lines, and this was a targeted hit. And a warning shot, considering how close the guy was when he shot him and just got him in the leg.

Also sounds as if he's flying back to Boston.

So Hunter Pence did something I didn't think was possible.

He hit an inside the park home run, to Right Field in Fenway.

Right field in Fenway is smaller than my living room.

Do people here watch the Youtube channel Foolish Baseball? It's possible I'm preaching to the converted here and it's widely known, but I'm not a big baseball fan and these videos are incredibly entertaining while also informative on a subject I have no particular reason to care about. If you aren't already, subscribe to this dude, because he does a really good job on these. Here's his most popular one.
