Olney Guillen, the son of Miami Marlins skipper Ozzie Guillen, recently uploaded a photo of the now-infamous bat autographed by Bryce Harper that was presented last week to Ozzie as a sort of peace offering after Guillen publicly ripped the Washington Nationals rookie phenom for being “unprofessional.” During a game between the Marlins and Nationals on [...]

Here’s the autographed Bryce Harper bat Nats sent to Ozzie Guillen (Picture)

Ozzie Guillen got into it with Bryce Harper when the Marlins and Nats played two weeks ago over the amount/height of pine tar on Harper’s bat. As a gag, the Nats got Bryce Harper to autograph a bat, and without his knowledge, added an inscription and gave it to Ozzie Guillen. We were really curious at the time to see what the bat looked like, and now we finally know. Oney Guillen...

White Sox could make bold move

At the height of trading season, teams often send confusing messages, making it difficult to decipher their intentions. That said, the Chicago White Sox will be a team to watch in the next week, with the non-waiver deadline approaching at 4 p.m. ET July 31. White Sox general manager Ken Williams already has acquired third baseman Kevin Youkilis and right-handed reliever Brett Myers...

The Chicago White Sox Gavin Floyd Gets The Much Needed Win

Gavin Floyd pitched well enough last night to get the White Sox a much-needed win. Since the second half started the White Sox have had trouble finding the win column. The win didn’t come easy for Floyd, he had control problems giving up 3 runs on six hits and walked 6 hitters. Only two runs given up by Floyd were earned. The White Sox are only one game behind the Tigers in the...

Danks encouraged by bullpen session

On the same night that Chicago White Sox rookie Jose Quintana took a bit of a step back in a no-decision, veteran lefty starter John Danks took a big leap forward in his recovery from a left shoulder strain that has sidelined him since late May. Danks, who was the Opening Day starter for the White Sox and supposed to be the new face of the staff, threw 20 pitches off the mound...

Twins look to avoid sweep against White Sox

Getting back home has helped the Chicago White Sox put their recent struggles behind them. Facing the AL-worst Minnesota Twins surely hasn't hurt, either. Seeking a 10th victory in 11 home games, the White Sox - winners of 14 of 18 in this series - try for a three-game sweep of the Twins on Wednesday. Chicago (52-45) lost the final five games on its recently completed road...

Chicago White Sox: Home runs carry team to 7-4 win

It was not a pleasant weekend for the Chicago White Sox. After getting swept by the Detroit Tigers, the Sox are 1 1/2 games behind first place after enjoying a lengthy stay on top of the division. Luckily, the struggling offense bounced back Monday night as the Sox beat the Twins 7-4. Nice to see that home run swing again Paul Konerko started the game off on the right foot with his...

White Sox 11, Twins 4

Adam Dunn tied the game with his major league-leading 30th homer and Dayan Viciedo hit a bases-loaded single to cap a four-run seventh Tuesday night as the Chicago White Sox rallied to beat the Minnesota Twins 11-4. The victory allowed the White Sox to move into a tie for the AL Central lead with Detroit, which lost at Cleveland. Dunn hit a two-run homer off lefty reliever Tyler...

Marlins' Guillen: "We're going to play better" with Hanley gone

In a move that once seemed unthinkable, the Miami Marlins traded three-time All-Star Hanley Ramirez to the Los Angeles Dodgers on Wednesday. But don't tell the Marlins they are giving up on the season. "Everyone has kind of got their head down a little bit right now, but we're eight games out of the wild card," outfielder Justin Ruggiano said after Miami lost...

Where Bryce Harper's first home run in NY landed...

Bryce Harper hit a 2-run bomb into the visitor's bullpen at Citi Field in the first inning Monday night off the Mets' Chris Young. Destroyed the baseball, in fact. 9th HR of the season. See video here. Until HitTracker gets updated, we're calling this one at 420 ft. (Screencaps via MASN/TV) Befriend Nats Enquirer on Facebook. Follow on Twitter.

Harper, Nats knock off Mets in 10

Bryce Harper homered his first time up in New York, then hit a tiebreaking single to key a six-run burst in the 10th inning Monday night that sent the Washington Nationals over the Mets 8-2. Shortstop Ruben Tejada's error on a potential double-play ball set up the big 10th. Ryan Zimmerman hit a three-run double and Michael Morse added a two-run homer as the NL East-leading Nationals...

Some Marlins players reportedly happy to see Hanley Ramirez go

The Marlins first season under Ozzie Guillen has been a disappointment. After building a brand new ballpark and making some significant splashes in free agency during the offseason, nobody expect Miami to turn into sellers at the trade deadline. Now that they have, it makes sense that Hanley Ramirez was the first to go. His career with the Marlins has been a frustrating roller coaster...

Nationals 8, Mets 2(10)

Bryce Harper homered his first time up in New York, then hit a tiebreaking single to key a six-run burst in the 10th inning Monday night that sent the Washington Nationals over the Mets 8-2. Shortstop Ruben Tejada's error on a potential double-play ball set up the big 10th. Ryan Zimmerman hit a three-run double and Michael Morse added a two-run homer as the NL East-leading Nationals...

Bye Bye Beato: Nationals 8, Mets 2

Do or do not… Too much Bryce Harper and too few Mets runs led to another heartache in extra innings tonight as the Mets gave up 6 runs in the 10th inning.  Handed their 9th loss out of 10 games since the All-Star break, things are looking pretty bleak right now.  I have faith though that they will turn this around though.  Do their playoff hopes look as shiny as before, no...
