Yasiel Puig had a rough start to the day, but he knows how to finish in style.

The Los Angeles Dodgers superstar was late to the ballpark for pregame drills prior to the team's meeting with the Miami Marlins and was fined for his tardiness.

Dodgers beat writer Bill Plunkett was first to break the news.

If the owner of your favorite baseball team has a "win at all cost" attitude, that's usually a good thing, right? Yes! Being aggressive and spending money has paid off for many eventual World Series champions. But it's also resulted in some very dire situations, notably in the case of Arte Moreno and the Los Angeles Angels. 

Yasiel Puig is an MVP candidate and then some...unfortunately, by "and then some" I mean that he's also a diva.

The expansion of the active roster from 25 to 40 players on September 1 means something different to every team. 

For clubs hoping to retain a lead in the standings or make one last run at the postseason, it’s essentially an opportunity to address deficiencies by handpicking the top talent from within the organization. 

Meanwhile, teams that have already thrown in the towel for the season have the freedom to experiment with the lineup and audition younger players.

It appears that Brian Cashman's opinion only means so much when it comes to how the New York Yankees handle their roster. 

Boston Red Sox star David Ortiz was ejected from Saturday night's road game against the Baltimore Orioles after smashing the bullpen phone in the visiting dugout.

As we celebrate the accomplishments of New York Yankees owner Jacob Ruppert, umpire Hank O'Day and barehanded catcher James Laurie "Deacon" White in Cooperstown over the weekend, it's hard not to let one's gaze wander toward some of the players denied entry into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2013. 

There isn't much time until Wednesday's Major League Baseball trade deadline hits, and as expected, the chatter on some of the game's bigger names is starting to become louder.

Several premium pitchers are reportedly on the trading block, including Cliff Lee of the Philadelphia Phillies, Kansas City Royals starter Ervin Santana and Chicago White Sox hurler Jake Peavy. If the latest rumors hold true, it looks like two are set to depart while one will stay.

Perhaps no team in baseball is stuck in the middle more than the Philadelphia Phillies. The Fightin' Phils have plenty of high-quality veteran players, but they find themselves fading fast as their playoff hopes are hanging by a thread. With that in mind, the Phillies have to decide whether they're buyers or sellers.

With the MLB trade deadline less than a week away, Cardinal fans are wondering what magic general manager John Mozeliak has up his sleeve.

The last two seasons, Mozeliak has pulled the trigger on moves that directly impacted the Cardinals stretch run to the postseason.
