Fun little article for real baseball fans to check out.

That looks like it hurts. Nice to see someone paid a lot and sacrifices their body for a play. In a 7-1 game. Cespedes won't risk injury in a 0-0 game.
Cespedes isn't a center fielder. He's a team guy who played out of position to try and help the team.
He won the gold glove that year too BTW in LEFT FIELD
Most CF's catch that ball off the bat easy. You're really okay with a guy looking at the wall and his teammate and losing the ball because he's afraid he'll get hurt?
Want to see the effort of a player who wants to win enough to sacrifice his body? I'll show you two.
Not surprisingly, the team with both of those courageous players won the World Series.![]()
Strange to mention Schwarber. Who could forget his all time bad defense in the 2015 playoffs?

Javy still won't admit Cespedes is better than Heyward. He's a sad homer.
guy has a cannon

Javey that throw was way high...plus it was bad baserunning. You don't try and stretch a single into a double down six in the 9th inning.
come on Javey. You claim to know baseball. Little leaguers know better.
Wheres the Puig gifs ?
Now that kid does have a real GUN
Puig another talented guy, but also a clubhouse cancer like Cespedes. Cubs have been very motivated to trade Soler for years. Not sure you want a Cuban on your roster if you can avoid it.
I would hope such foul bigotry has no place at the NEW Eye On Gaming forum.
John?
Why did the tigers try to resign him after they traded him to the Mets at the deadline?
Why are there leaks from the Mets' dugout that Cespedes is a terrible teammate, which media cites directly from within the Mets' dugout, leaks that David Wright had to address and defend?
Are you really this dumb? Do you think David Wright is going to say to the media, 'Oh, yeah, Cespedes sucks. We hate him.'
Use what limited intelligence you have and piece this together, little guy. The Cespedes is a bad teammate thing is not just coming from Boston, although, it should be pointed out that this came out of Boston while they were trying to trade him, so it's not like they'd tank the value of their own player intentionally for shits and giggles.
I wouldnt call Cespedes a cancer but his " I am so physically gifted that I dont need to give 100% effort" attitude is contagious to weaker minded young players
There is a reason Red Sox and Tigers got rid of him despite their love for power hitters
The Tigers acquired Michael Fulmer from the Mets at the deadline for Cespedes when they were out of playoff contention. Pretty smart BASEBALL DECISION. Then they tried to sign him back in the off season but he chose the Mets.
The Tigers wanted him back!
JFC
How dumb are you? This is a sincere question.
Of course the Mets WANTED Cespedes back. Without Cespedes, you have the worst offense in major league baseball. So the options are:
1) Have the worst offense in major league baseball
or
2) Sign a cancerous player and have a subpar offense, but at least not one of the worst offenses in baseball
Of course the only smart choice is option 2, that doesn't mean that Cespedes isn't a fucking cancer.
And we are specifically talking about the Cubs when we talk about whether the Cubs or I, as a Cubs fan, would want Cespedes on my team. And the answer is a HELL FUCKING NO. The Cubs are extremely young and I don't want any of them learning bad habits from that cancerous punk. Also, we don't need him, and he will get hurt a lot over the next 4 years, I guarantee that.
HOLY FUCKING SHIT, you are literally autistic.
I know you said the Detroit Tigers. I was giving you an example of circumstances of why a team would WANT to sign a player, even if they were a cancer, because their TEAM NEEDS dictate that their need is more relevant than the clubhouse cancer cost.
And I even used the Mets as an example so you might hope to relate.
And you still fell flat on your face.
I thank god every day that you are not the father of your children.
