Matt Carpenter and Adam Wainwright welcome you to the 'Scare Games'

This offseason, Dodgers pitcher Kenta Maeda treated us to a video of his hilarious and effective attempt to terrify his translator Will Ireton. Similar scare tactics have seemingly made their way into Spring Training, where Cardinals veterans Matt Carpenter and Adam Wainwright are going head-to-head to see which one can successfully scare the other the best. Wainwright seems to have the upper hand so far. 

Here are some other social media highlights from the past week on the baseball Internet:

Back in January, Royals pitcher and noted Lakers fan Danny Duffy showed us how committed he was to his NBA2K Franchise Mode.  

Fast forward to March and Duffy's Lakers squad is still dominating the virtual NBA -- and they've relocated!

Ichiro is back in Seattle, and that can only mean one thing, according to Dee Strange-Gordon:

It's safe to say Josh Donaldson disagrees with some recent comments regarding hip hop legend Tupac Shakur.
