Austin Meadows’ girlfriend Alexis Wilson loves peace, pictures and sunshine. That’s how she describes herself on social media. Those are three nice things to like, you have to admit. I am fairly confident she says she loves pictures because she works for a professional photographer. Alexis lists the photographer’s social media in her profile. If Alexis plans to become a professional photographer, it makes sense to work for one first. Unfortunately, I can’t see her photos since her social media is private. The woman she works for is a pro, however, because all her work looks very nice.

Recently, Austin Meadows’ girlfriend visited him while he trained for the season. Pittsburgh plays in spring training at Lecom Park in Bradenton, Florida. Alexis took a trip down there in January to watch him practice. More recently, Austin kindly wished Alexis a happy birthday and told her how thankful he felt for all the time they spend together. He mentioned he counts down the days until he sees her again. This is standard sweet boyfriend behavior, and Alexis always appears very happy in the pictures they take together.

The couple celebrated their five-year anniversary in late December. I believe it coincides closely with Christmas. He took her to a fancy Chateau and Winery because they enjoy the finer things of life. Austin Meadows’ girlfriend also likes to be outdoors, and they traveled to the Toccoa River in Tennessee in January. They called it a getaway weekend and Austin said there’s nothing quite like it because he loves to be with her. They dressed in horror costumes during Halloween and wore bloody shirts. Alexis is a fun-loving girl who appears to possess a calm and down-to-earth demeanor. Whenever they can, they travel to a nice outdoors place like the beach or the woods. This couple is positioned to last another five years.

Gerrit Cole’s wife Amy Crawford has been in the picture for a while.

Let’s hit the wayback machine.

In 2011, Gerrit was the first pick of the draft.  Gerrit Cole’s wife Amy (who was then his girlfriend) was there.  Gerrit Cole was the visage of optimism for a long suffering Pirates fan base.  His big league debut was met with much hype and anticipation.  The pressure was already borderline suffocating.  With enough pressure already thrown atop the 22 year old, there’s probably not a whole lot else which could add to his anxiety.  But, it also can’t help to know you’ll be squaring off against a man who would be your future brother in law.

Go on…

It was the Pirates vs the Giants.  And, the Giants shortstop is of course Brandon Crawford.  See where we’re headed  Yes, folks, in this case, Gerrit Cole’s wife Amy Crawford is the sister of San Francisco Giants shortstop Brandon Crawford.  The man who stepped in against the man who became his future brother in law for his major league debut.

Pretty cool.

Gerrit Cole’s wife Amy Crawford was also a pitcher at UCLA.  Crawford was obviously pitching for the softball team. After graduating a couple years ago, Amy was able to attend Gerrit’s debut against her brother.  And that all happened, despite her old UCLA Bruins softball team heading off to the College World Series. Amy was a sociology major who graduated in 2011, who also listed Will Smith after favorite actor, Friends as her favorite TV Show, and Oceans 11, 12 & 13 as her favorite movies.

As for allegiances – for once, it doesn’t appear to be a totally split decision. Amy didn’t mind announcing by Twitter that she’ll be sitting in the home section with the other Pirates wives when Cole toes the rubber for the first time. Fortunately, she can revert back to her Giants allegiance after the game as an October meeting is unlikely between the two squads for this season.

On May 18, 2020, news came out that Starling Marte’s wife Noelia passed away suddenly and unexpectedly.  Starling took to social media to reveal the news.

Hoy paso por el gran dolor de informar el lamentable fallecimiento de mi esposa Noelia, a causa de un infarto. Es un momento de mucha tristeza.

I go through the pain of making public the unfortunate death of my wife Noelia, due to a heart attack. It is a moment of great sorrow. pic.twitter.com/UEP4k8dLBW

Starling Marte’s wife Noelia Marte leaves behind two young children.  Their daughter celebrated her fourth birthday just days before Marte took to social media to reveal the passing of Noelia.

As a father of young children, I cannot fathom doing this alone.  Our genuine thoughts and prayers are with Starling, his children, and the entire Marte family at this time.

Original Post – March, 2015

Starling Marte’s wife Noelia Marte gave birth to a healthy young son in September of 2013.  Ever since then she’s been as busy as you could expect a young mother to be. Noelia is from the Dominican Republic just like Starling.  In the same year that Noelia gave birth to their son, they traveled to a special award ceremony in Santo Domingo to receive a custom-made plaque from the mayor of the city. It’s a pretty charmed life if you have got the skillset that Mr. Marte possesses.

Starling Marte’s wife Noelia Marte still lives in the Dominican Republic at least part of the time.  The two met through one of Starling’s cousins. According to a Pittsburgh paper, Noelia and Starling’s son is named Starling Jr., and he also spends most of his time in the Dominican. Noelia has a degree in general accounting that she attained in Santo Domingo, and she’s a religious lady just like her husband. Incidentally, the story of her husband’s recruitment is a fairly standard scout’s tale.

According to a scout named Rene Gayo of the Pirates organization, he was passed on at the age of 18 as a short-stop because he had some timing issues. Gayo said he wasn’t very good at it, but they tried him out in left-field, and they saw what a cannon he has for an arm. They also saw a good hitter with incredible base-running speed. That was enough for Gayo to offer Starling’s manager 75 grand and give him a shot at being a professional in America. It’s been a great change for Starling Marte’s wife Noelia Marte too. They both grew up in extremely challenging poverty the likes of which very few Americans are exposed to. You can imagine what a step up it’s been for their budding family.

Ah, to be a Venezuelan baseball star. Francisco Cervelli’s girlfriend Migbelis Castellanos picks up where his ex-girlfriend, Patricia De Leon, leaves off. As you may or may not know, Patrica De Leon was a beauty queen from Panama. Well, Migbelis is Miss Venezuela 2013. So not only is she way younger than Patricia, but she’s from Francisco’s home country. Score! I wonder how Patricia felt when she learned he was dating her. If I was Miss Panama 1995 I’d be seething with either rage or sadness or both, but I don’t have all that much congeniality.

Francisco Cervelli’s girlfriend Migbelis is really pretty. I don’t understand how to translate her name to an English equivalent, but I think Francisco probably just ends up called her “Mig” or “Miggy” or something like that. She’s managed to rack up some 641,000 followers on her Instagram, and since she’s so young and peppy, I predict she’ll eventually hit the 1,000,000 mark. I guess Francisco is a big deal in Venezuela and that’s how he managed to land this beauty queen, but then again he’s a pro baseball player so he’s already go a leg up on the competition. However way you slice it, she’s hot, and I can tell she’s got an awesome, fun personality. They don’t hand out beauty queen crowns in Venezuela on looks alone. You’ve gotta have that extra spice.

Migbelis managed to get herself on the cover of some Latin-American magazine called Tendencia, which means “trend.” I’m assuming that’s a pretty big deal in Venezuela and wherever else it’s sold (probably other countries in that region). She was also featured in a magazine called Aguapanela, which I have no idea how to translate again. It’s still a big deal, people. In fact, she was representing some sort of fashion night event for the same magazine on several occasions, so my guess is she had a kind promotional deal worked out with them.

Francisco Cervelli’s girlfriend Patricia De Leon is actually his ex-girlfriend. Patricia, a well-known actress and television host from the Central American country of Panama (known for Panama Canal fame), and the Pirates backstop broke up a couple years ago. Panama is a pretty dangerous country to visit right now, but I’m sure they’d treat Patricia De Leon like absolute royalty there, as she was crowned Miss Panama 1995 and then went on to start an acting and modeling career. She’s been a famous person in Central America for a long time, but we don’t really know her because she never broke into the American entertainment industry in the same way.

Nevertheless, the woman formerly known as Francisco Cervelli’s girlfriend is an attractive and charismatic woman. She’s still frequently featured on the covers and pages of Latin-American magazines and always manages time to snap some photos with her two favorite doggy pals, Chico and Bella, two Pomeranians. They were not on hand for her summer trip to Madrid this year, but who wants to travel with two puffy furballs? Having lived in Madrid for a few months, it was nice to see that Patricia appreciates some of the finer cultural sites the city has to offer such as La Reina Sofia, a large and prominent art museum which house a huge collection of Picasso paintings. Now, I’m not entirely certain how Mr. Cervelli came to split with Patricia, but she’s certainly still keeping very busy with herself and her intense traveling and modeling schedule. She’s 38 years-old and seems to be as in-demand as ever.

I still don’t recognize any of the Latin-American beauty and fashion magazines that Francisco Cervelli’s ex-girlfriend Patricia De Leon has been featured on, but I might not even recognize them if they were American magazines so it’s probably just as well. Some of the notable covers include Vos, Show, Debut, and Blush. She seems to take pictures with recognizable American film and tv actors on occasion as well. I’ve seen her in snaps with Antonio Banderas and Mark Harmon. She may have even been in an episode of NCIS. Why else would she be hanging around the set? One other thing about Patricia that you’d notice in photographs of her with other ladies is that she’s extraordinarily tall. She towers over women of average height, and I’d estimate her to be at least 6’0″.

Neil Walker’s wife Niki Walker married him in 2011, and the couple attended Travis Snider’s wedding in December of last year, in Cabo San Lucas, where Travis Snider’s wife is from. I’m not entirely sure where they live in the offseason, but Neil and Niki seem to spend a lot of time in Vail, Colorado. That could have something to do with Niki being born in Colorado and growing up there. She loves hiking and being outdoors, and she was proud to attend a game between the Pirates and the Rockies a year ago, explaining that she was “back to where I was born.”

Neil Walker’s wife Niki lives with him in a suburb outside of Pittsburgh, and judging by the views that she’s shared on the net, it’s a pretty nice place. She likes to hang out in nature the same way she does when she’s in Colorado, and she’s found herself a beautiful waterfall to lounge around. Neil and Niki have a pet Australian Shepard named Oliver that they love, and Niki was happy to introduce Oliver to his sister after randomly sitting next to the owner at a Pirates game. They apparently started talking about the fact that they both owned “Aussies,” and they realized the birthdays of their dogs were the same, and then they realized they were siblings. That’s a pretty intense coincidence; perhaps the guy in charge of the seating at the PIrates game was having a laugh.

One of the great pleasures that Neil Walker’s wife Niki experienced in the past two years was traveling to Paris, France and seeing all the beautiful sights and sounds that city has to offer. I’ve seen it time and time again– pictures of players and their wives with the great city of Paris as the backdrop. It’s almost like a rite of passage a baseball couple has to go through to take their relationship to the next level. Niki went to Notre Dame, the Louvre, and even got out to Versailles with her man to see how the royalty of France used to live back in the day. Her lifestyle’s not really going to match that kind of opulence, but she’s got it made being married to a talented Pittsburgh Pirate in the prime of his career!
