MIKE STANTON RUMORS & GOSSIP

Will Mike Stanton lead the league in HR’s next season?

In a little more than one full MLB season Miami Marlins RF Mike Stanton has quickly become my favorite player to watch. He has a cannon for an arm, a freakishly athletic dual sport body that should carry him for 15+ MLB seasons, and that light tower power than all of us here in the Miami area are raving about. Mike Stanton was on pace and very narrowly missed the NL Home Run mark...

Mark McGwire, sitting in the Cardinal dugout, had to appreciate the bomb and remember when he used to...
