Now Carlos Tevez Is Just Openly Talking Shit About Chinese Soccer
Carlos Tevez has always been a man incapable of even pretending to give a single fuck. So it shouldn’t be too much of a surprise to hear that his response to his Chinese Super League team manager’s accusations that he is too fat to play was not getting into shape, but instead taking a flamethrower t...
Carlos Tevez Is Homesick And Too Chubby To Play
The promise of $40 million is an eye-popping figure that would push anyone into an unfamiliar situation, and for former international superstar Carlos Tevez, that kind of money was even enough to get him out of what seemed like a perfect fit and over to China. In January, Tevez left his boyhood club...
Giancarlo Stanton Will Not Be The Home Run King Until He Hits 74 Home Runs
In all likelihood, at some point in the next few weeks Giancarlo Stanton of the Miami Marlins will bash his 60th home run of the 2017 season. It’s not out of the question that he will find time to bash two more and surpass the 61 dingers Roger Maris famously hit in 1961, when he broke Babe Ruth’s lo...
How Long Will Giancarlo Stanton Hit Homers in Miami?
Baseball’s hottest player is on a team that isn’t going anywhere this fall. Last night Giancarlo Stanton homered in his sixth straight game, a team record. It was his 11th homer in his last 12 games, and his 23rd in his last 35. He has 44 on the season, and also leads the league in slugging percenta...
Giancarlo Stanton Is Mashing <i>So Many</i> Taters
With his first-inning knock in last night’s 8-3 Marlins win over the Giants, Giancarlo Stanton’s numbers are downright incredible. He’s homered in five straight games. He has more home runs in August than the Pirates, and as many as the Rays. He has 10 homers in his last 11. And 22 in his last 34....
MLS's Anti-Ambition Disease Is Now Infecting Mexicans
Back when MLS was primarily a retirement league where the geriatric greats of the good leagues in Europe could count on a fat check to jog circles around a collection of useless American never-wills until they got too bored and formally retired, the league was a sorry spectacle, to be sure, but most...
This Is The Giancarlo Stanton We Were Promised
Giancarlo Stanton hit his 38th home run of the season last night, an arcing 438-footer to the centerfield bleachers at Nationals Park. It marked his career-high home runs in a season, and there are another 50 games in the Marlins’ season....

Carlos Rodon's Start Was An Amazing, Confusing Mess
White Sox pitcher Carlos Rodon, making just his fifth start of the season after a lengthy DL stint, took on his team’s cross-town rivals at Wrigley today. Sox fans, I have good news and bad news....
Don't Look Now, But The Yankees Might Be Interested In Giancarlo Stanton
Giancarlo Stanton was definitely thinking home run. In a rare visit to the Rangers, one of the few ballparks the Marlins slugger hasn’t homered in, Stanton realized this might be his last chance for a while to notch it on his belt. (Well, his last chance for a while unless he becomes a Yankee soon. ...
On The Second Day, Carlos Beltrán's Glove Rose From The Dead
Two days ago, the Houston Astros gathered to lay Carlos Beltrán’s glove to rest. The erstwhile outfielder hadn’t played defense in more than two months, spending his days as a designated hitter instead, and the team put together a nice little ceremony with a priest (Brian McCann), a coffin (a shoebo...
The Astros Have Laid Carlos Beltrán's Outfield Glove To Rest
After a career in the outfield, Carlos Beltrán has lately been spending his days as a designated hitter—now 40 years old, he hasn’t played in the field since May 16. (This despite the fact that he’s hitting .231/.289/.408 on the season.) Apparently, the Astros collectively subscribe to a belief syst...

It's Too Bad Giancarlo Stanton Got Tired
Giancarlo Stanton took his timeout early on during last night’s Home Run Derby. He got off to a rough start, slapping a handful ground balls and liners rather than monster dingers, and he was clearly frustrated by the time he’d already eaten up....

Catcher Carlos Ruiz Pitched And Struck Someone Out
Carlos Ruiz had played 1,109 games in his career before Tuesday. The longtime Phillies catcher, now with the Seattle Mariners, had only played two other positions: An inning at third base during extra-inning games with the Phils in 2008 and 2011, and an inning at first earlier this season. Last nigh...
Marlins, Dodgers Benches Clear
A late, uninteresting Marlins-Dodgers game got fiery after Ross Stripling threw behind Giancarlo Stanton, got ejected, and sparked a fight that saw former L.A. and current Miami skipper Don Mattingly front and center....
