Giancarlo Stanton Is Rightfully Wary Of The Marlins' Stink
Giancarlo Stanton is having a tremendous year.

Giancarlo Stanton Can Put On One Hell Of A Show

This hand belongs to some poor bastard who attended Monday night's MLB home run derby, where he tried to catch a Giancarlo Stanton tater with his bare hand. Honestly, I'm sort of surprised this hand isn't in worse shape. I mean, have you seen Giancarlo Stanton hit a baseball?...
Giancarlo Stanton Nearly Hit One Out Of The Stadium
All the talk heading into the Home Run Derby was about Giancarlo Stanton, and his first-round performance not disappoint. He hit a couple of monster shots, but this one was an absolute bomb.

Giancarlo Stanton And His Power Are A Joy To Watch
There are few events in the MLB currently more enjoyable than Giancarlo Stanton hitting a home run. (No disrespect to Jose Abreu.) "Crushed" is an understatement when describing the balls Stanton hits....

Giancarlo Stanton Hit A Baseball Pretty Goddamned Far
The Marlins may be a festering pile of Jeffrey Loria's shit, but they still have Giancarlo Stanton on the roster. It's a welcome presence because at least someone in the organization is capable of reaching the brass ring beyond "total embarrassment to humanity." ...
Giancarlo Stanton Crushes A Homer And Jose Fernandez Loses His Mind

Giancarlo Stanton Got Drilled In The Head With A Fastball
Giancarlo Stanton, the Marlins' best player and only hope of selling tickets, took a ball to the dome during a simulated game this afternoon. The offending pitcher?

Marlins Complain To MLB Because Greg Dobbs, Justin Ruggiano, And Steve Cishek Didn't Make The All-Star Team
Giancarlo Stanton, the hulking Marlins right fielder, is having one hell of an age-22 season—19 home runs, a .284/.364/.554 batting line, an all-star spot, solid gold stuff. Or, well, Stanton's season was solid gold until he hurt his knee. He underwent surgery today and pulled out of the home run de...
Giancarlo Stanton Nearly Killed His Cutoff Man
With the Marlins well on their way to being blown out (Ozzie Guillen called it "the worst game we've played all year"), at least Giancarlo Stanton and Logan Morrison found something to laugh about. Morrison, playing first, nearly got taken out when he attempted to cutoff Stanton's throw from right....
The Marlins Have Become The (Original) Kings Of Comedy
The Miami Marlins are 1-3 so far in their dream season. They'd be fifth in the NL East if not for the fact that an NL East team (Atlanta) had to play the New York JuggerMets and consequently didn't win a game. Their manager offended, like, half of Miami. Someone's squatting on their domain name. The...
