Alright, let me walk you through this whole ‘alex verdugo baby’ thing I was messing with recently.

It started pretty randomly. I was just scrolling around online, you know how it goes, and kept seeing folks mention “alex verdugo baby” or something like that. Didn’t really get it at first, thought maybe it was some weird inside joke or maybe even merch, like a baby onesie with his name. Curiosity got the better of me, so I decided to dig into it myself.
First Steps Down the Rabbit Hole
So, first thing I did was just punch “alex verdugo baby” into the search bar. Pretty straightforward. Got back a mix of stuff – news articles about him, pictures from games, the usual player profile things. Nothing that screamed ‘baby’ immediately, you know?
I figured maybe it was a specific photo or a meme. So I changed tactics. Tried searching image results specifically. Added words like ‘funny face’, ‘pout’, ‘young’. Went through page after page. Found plenty of pics of the guy, obviously. Some good action shots, some where he’s smiling or looking intense.
Finding Clues (or Not)
Saw a few where maybe he looked a bit younger, or maybe making a face that could be interpreted that way if you squinted? But nothing definitive. Nothing that made me go “Ah-ha! That’s the one!”
Then I thought, maybe it’s related to something specific he did? Like a reaction in a game or an interview clip?
- I started looking through recent game highlights. Watched clips from his time with the Red Sox, and then the Yankees.
- Checked out some post-game interviews. Sometimes players get goofy in those.
- Scanned through fan forums and social media comments again, trying to find the original context.
Hitting a Bit of a Wall
Honestly, it was tougher than I expected. Found lots of opinions about him, lots of game talk. But the specific ‘baby’ reference? It seemed kinda vague, maybe just a nickname someone threw out there that caught on a little bit, more about an attitude or a perceived immaturity than a literal picture of him as a baby or making a specific face.
I even tried searching for merchandise again, thinking maybe I missed something the first time. Looked for funny t-shirts, fan art, stuff like that. Found the standard jerseys and player tees, but no weird ‘baby’ themed stuff.

So, What’s the Deal?
After spending more time on it than I probably should have, I kinda just came to my own conclusion. It doesn’t seem to be one single, concrete thing. Not a famous photo, not a specific viral video, not a piece of merch I could find.
My best guess? It’s probably just internet chatter. Maybe sparked by a particular expression he made once, or maybe just fans riffing on his name or his perceived personality. It’s one of those things that exists more in the comments section than in reality.
So, yeah. That was my little journey trying to figure out the ‘alex verdugo baby’ thing. Didn’t exactly find treasure, but it was an interesting look into how these little online phrases pop up. Just wanted to share the process, case anyone else was wondering.
