Steve Cohen, in an overnight move in the early hours of Wednesday morning, appears to have snatched the highest priced free agent left on the market from the San Francisco Giants. Even weirder, it appears this may have all begun as the Giants were getting ready to introduce Carlos Correa as their new shortstop.

Max Scherzer failed when the New York Mets needed him the most, and Scherzer is the reason the Mets were a one and done in the playoffs.

When you are a Major League Baseball play-by-play announcer/analyst, at times you are paid for your opinion. Ex-players and managers stack broadcast booths across the country to provide key insight. Mets play-by-play star, Gary Cohen grew up a New York Mets fan, not too far from Shea Stadium. Cohen along with former 1986 Mets Ron Darling and Keith Hernandez combine for one of the most popular broadcast booth trios in the game. On Sunday night, Cohen was part of the SNY postgame crew, as the game was on ESPN. The ever-popular Queens native got roundly booed by the live audience for his comments regarding Mets manager Buck Showalter.

Well, for many Mets fans Sunday night was not an evening to remember. New York lost in their Game 3 elimination match-up with the San Diego Padres. However, for one University at Albany alum, it was probably another cool experience on an incredibly impressive resume. What makes this Great Dane so special that she was throwing out a first pitch prior to the biggest Mets game of the year, in front of a national TV audience?

According to reports by ESPN Saturday night "the game between the Padres and the Nationals was suspended in the sixth inning Saturday night after a shooting outside Nationals Park that caused echoes of gunfire inside the stadium and prompted fans to scramble for safety in the dugout." Fans had to hide in the dugouts. People who are supposed to be having fun are terrified and thankfully the gun violence was intended to injure the fans.

Manny Machado has reportedly reached an agreement to join the San Diego Padres. This marks the first of the two biggest Free Agents on the market to sign this off season. There is no confirmation on the amount but reports have the deal being 10 years $300 million.

Snoop Dogg was asked to throw the first pitch in San Diego as the Padres took on the Atlanta Braves. Given his sports background and how he is always at sporting events, you think he would know how to throw a baseball. Apparently he doesn't...

105 year old Agnes McKee threw out the first pitch when the Padres hosted the Mets Sunday. And get this, she made it to the cathcer...50 CENT!!! Your browser does not support iframes. In case you forgot you can see 50 Cent's terrible first pitch HERE...

Even with the return of Curtis Granderson, the 2013 New York Yankees line-up is not one built to overcome early deficits. On Sunday afternoon, an early deficit is exactly what Phil Hughes left them with, and the result was a 6-3 loss in San Diego.

Tim Lincecum, former ace and two-time CY Young award winner, who was relegated to the bullpen last year during a World Series run and rumored to go back this year, tossed his first career no-hitter and 15th no-hitter in Giants history. It took Lincecum 148 pitches over nine innings, but he got the job done in a 9-0 win over the San Diego Padres...

In last night's game between the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres, Dodgers pitcher Zack Greinke threw a 3-2 pitch in a 2-1 game that hit Padres outfielder Carlos Quentin. It seemed like an honest mistake given the count and score of the game, but Quentin didn't see it that way, charging the mound and breaking Greinke's collarbone in the process.
