Major League Baseball released a response Thursday to a pending lawsuit by former minor league pitcher Neiman Nix, who said "tortious interference" from the league during its Biogenesis investigation irreparably harmed his anti-aging business.  

Former MLB outfielder Darryl Strawberry stated Thursday he used to pick women out of the crowd and have sex with them in the clubhouse in between innings.

The Chicago Cubs (53-35) lost 15 of their last 21 games heading into the MLB All-Star break, including nine of 11, but they are still +375 favorites (bet $100 to win $375) to end their championship drought at sportsbooks monitored by Odds Shark.

No, it's not Christmas in July, but it might as well be the holiday season. For in every front office around MLB, there's a general manager doing laps around his desk with a shopping list of gifts he wants to put bows on and deliver to his team's clubhouse.

The problem is that many of those shopping lists look the same, and there's going to be a mad dash, if not an all-out bidding war, as teams try to add the pieces they need for the stretch.

It was all about the Kansas City Royals and the American League at Tuesday's 2016 MLB All-Star Game at Petco Park in San Diego.

A year ago, Mike Trout took home MVP honors, but it was the Royals who took advantage of the home-field advantage to triumph in the World Series.

This year, Kansas City's Eric Hosmer took home the MVP award in the 4-2 win, putting his Royals in an advantageous position to defend the title while giving the American League a dominant fourth win in a row.

With the Oakland Athletics struggling this season and unlikely to reach the postseason, the team could become sellers before the trade deadline. One prime candidate to be traded is veteran pitcher Rich Hill.
