Jimmy Nelson’s wife Melissa Nelson married him in December of 2016 and became engaged in March of that year. I read in a Brewers blog that Jimmy proposed at her sister’s house at the end of saying grace. Honestly, that sounds super awkward, but he says she felt happy and surprised. I can only imagine. Jimmy commented in the blog post that Melissa did all the planning and he just requested good food. It’s always…
MLB Wives and Girlfriends (WAGS)
Well, if Joey Votto’s girlfriend Jeanne Paulus still dates him, it strikes me as mildly surprising. However, I can’t find any evidence she is not. They dated for a very long time when we first wrote about her back in 2013. Now, she still lives in Florida. Since it is no secret that Joey was a resident of Sarasota, Florida back in 2010, it remains plausible they are still a couple. An a Herald Tribune article from…
Ivan Rodriguez’s wife Patry Rodriguez married him in 2007 after Ivan ended his first marriage. Since his first marriage lasted fifteen years, I should note up front his first wife, Mirabel, gave birth to three children. Their names are Ivan, Amanda, and Ivanna. Ivanna is the youngest and was born in 2000. The marriage between Ivan and Patry occurred quite soon after the divorce and continues to this day. Since they married in 2007, they…
Tim Raines’ wife Shannon Raines married him in 2007 after he divorced his first wife, Virginia. His first marriage saw the birth of their two kids, Tim Jr. and Andre. Between his first marriage in 1979 and his second in 2007, he has four kids. Shannon actually gave birth to twins in 2010. Since he lived in Canada for so long, he ended up with a Canadian woman. I questioned how he met Shannon because…
Travis Shaw’s wife Lindy Berry Shaw gave birth to their daughter in early June. Following the birth, the Brewers immediately placed Travis on family medical emergency leave. Their daughter Ryann developed a condition called hypoplastic left heart syndrome. The condition means the baby did not develop a left portion of the heart that functions properly. Several surgeries are necessary to correct the syndrome. As you might imagine, this scared both Travis and Lindy. It’s a…
Jose Quintana’s wife Michel Quintana gave birth to their daughter in 2016. They named her Ariadna, and I like the name because it has a Latin flare. Michel herself is now studying to earn her degree in psychology. When 2017 rolled around, the couple posed for a photo with Ariadna and wished everyone a happy year. They did the same at Christmas, and both pictures came from their home. It appears they live in a…
David Robertson’s wife Erin Robertson met him in the summer of 2006. He played in the famed Cape Cod League at the time. They married in January of 2009 in New Hampshire. In 2015, the couple posed for a picture with their son. They named him Luke. He appeared about three years old in the photograph. Since they married in ’09, they gave themselves plenty of time before Luke appeared. Erin gave birth to him…
