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. ...

Young Larry Nance Jr. Wrote These Nice Letters To A Soldier Overseas
If you are the right age, i.e. pretty much any age, the U.S. was at war when you were a kid, and maybe your class wrote supportive letters to troops stationed overseas. (I did it during the Gulf War.) Lakers forward Larry Nance Jr. was 10 years old when the U.S. went into Iraq, and sent off a couple...

Jake Paul, the vile internet butthole whose eFame is owed to his routine of pulling dipshit bro pranks that crowd out and annoy his neighbors badly enough that they sued his scrawny ass, has apparently been fired by the Disney Channel:...
Dodgers Finally Lose
The Dodgers lost tonight for the first time in nearly three weeks, stopping their win streak at 11 and dropping them to 31-5 in their past 36 games. Their streak was tied for the longest such one in baseball this year. (The Astros put up the same mark in early June.)...

Reports: Giants To Re-Sign Pablo Sandoval, Because Why Not
A few hours after being officially released by the Red Sox, Pablo Sandoval has reportedly shrugged off the baggage that comes with being one of the mathematically worst free-agent signings of all time and found a new home in his old stomping grounds of San Francisco....
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...
Red Sox Mercifully End Pablo Sandoval's Sad, Horrendous Time In Boston<em></em>
Since signing a five-year, $95 million contract with the Boston Red Sox in 2015, Pablo Sandoval has been an unqualified disaster. Sandoval played just 161 games in two and a half seasons with the Red Sox, hitting .237/.286/.360/with 14 home runs. When he wasn’t hurt or playing poorly, he struggled t...
We Found Him, The Worst Person On Earth
Jake Paul, a former Vine star who parlayed that into a Disney Channel gig, lives in West Hollywood, and the insane white boy shit he’s committing regularly has pissed off his neighbors to the point where they’re considering legal action....
Lonzo Puts The Ball Where It Needs To Go
Lonzo Ball ditched his kicks, and may not be all that explosive off the dribble, but ultimately will be just fine. For whatever it’s worth, he was named Summer League MVP yesterday. While earning this honor he averaged 16.6 points, 7.7 rebounds, 9.3 assists and did many, many good passes, which are ...
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...

Lonzo Ball Has Best Game Yet After Ditching Big Baller Brand Sneakers
Lonzo Ball returned to Las Vegas Summer League action last night, but not in his much-ballyhooed Big Baller Brand ZO2s. No, he was wearing a purple pair of Kobe A.D. sneakers. Yes, they kind of look similar to the BBB ZO2....
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....
Lonzo Ball Will Be Fine
Summer League action made Jan Vesely look like an actual basketball player for two years in a row, so probably you should be wary of setting much stock by it. Still, if, like mine, your enthusiasm for the NBA at any given time tracks pretty closely with the number of bright young dudes within it fla...
The Astros And Dodgers Are Fucking Everyone Up
If you hadn’t watched a single baseball game this year, you could have gotten pretty well caught up on how things are playing out just by watching the Dodgers and Astros close out their first halves of the season yesterday. These are the two best teams in baseball, and yesterday they showed us preci...
