Julian Tavarez Is a Unique Brand of Crazy


In a move reminiscent of the Devil Rays-Red Sox dust-ups of days gone by, Julian Tavarez punches Joey Gathright (like a girl) in a spring training game. Of course, this is one day after Josh Beckett and Ryan Howard almost got into it as well, meaning we were this close to a Howard-Big Papi heavyweight bout!

Anyway, Deadspin tells what it's like to root for Tavarez and Scout.com's Birdhouse shares 14 incidents where Tavarez was "cuddly, cheat or crazy" throughout his storied career. Enjoy.

 Connecting with the limp wrist

Bonus: Frame-by-frame of the fight, and, wow, Tavarez really does punch like a girl.

    Tavarez brings toughness to a team that will need it this year.   He also brings stupidity but hey... sometimes tough comes stupid!!

    HE'S A PAIN IN THE ASS. HOT HEADED AND NEEDS HIS CLOCK CLEANED. HOW DOES ANYBODY SIDE W/ THAT MORON. ONE OF THESE DAYS HE'LL SPOUT OFF AND GET HIS BUTT HANDED TO HIM AND I CAN'T WAIT. HE OUGHT TO BE THANKFUL HE'S MAKING JACK FOR PLAYING A "LITTLE KID'S GAME. GO BACK TO WHEREVER YOU CAME FROM PENGEJO.
