MLB center fielder Joc Pederson is a man of many talents.
He’s a two-time MLB world champion, a two-time MLB All-Star and apparently and most importantly, an expert navigator of fantasy football league rules.
In case you’re out of the loop, Pederson and current Boston Red Sox outfielder Tommy Pham got into a little dispute over the rules and roster management of a fantasy football league the two participate in. One thing led to another earlier this season and Pham greeted Pederson in the outfield, prior to a game, with a slap to the face.
The Milwaukee Brewers’ scoreboard at American Family Field made sure to jokingly boost Pederson’s fantasy football resume before his at-bat for the San Francisco Giants during game on Thursday afternoon.

Pederson claims he was doing nothing illegal in the fantasy league, just simply opting to keep one of the players locked in the IR spot.
Anyways, Pham was suspended, which makes this story even wilder. And between the slap and the suspension, it’ll probably never go away.
So, hats off to the Brewers. This little jab at Pederson is pretty hilarious.
