Even worse news could be coming for Yoenis Cespedes

MLB JERSEYS
Mets outfielder Yoenis Cespedes spoke with reporters at his locker Friday night after appearing in his first major league game in nine weeks.

That said, his words in conjunction with the comments Sunday from Mets assistant general manager John Ricco offer…

Hader might even want people to think he's a renegade, except he has anything but a renegade personality. "Hi, I'm Josh," Hader says to those he meets, reaching out with a friendly hand.

Can Stephen Strasburg follow in his own footsteps?

Can Stephen Strasburg follow in his own footsteps?

MLB JERSEYS
If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, then Stephen Strasburg should feel pretty good about himself. Not long after pitchers and catchers reported last month, Dodgers hurler Alex Wood revealed that he was going to start working exclusively from the stretch because that’s what Strasburg did last year.

In 2017, the Los Angeles lefty went 16-3 with a 2.72 ERA, made it to the All-Star Game and finished in the top 10 in the National League Cy Young balloting. Still, he feels compelled to take a page out of somebody else’s book. And so he’ll try to follow in Strasburg’s footsteps. The question is, can Stephen Strasburg follow in his own? A year ago, Strasburg surprised everyone when…

Lions had significant interest in Richard Sherman
