[Outlaw]

Dodgers - Dbacks going at it for 2nd time... Puig hit in head, Grienke drills montero... Kennedy Drilled Greinke in the head WOW

[PGromek]

Puig threw a haymaker in there

not sure I'd want to be the guy restraining McGwire either

[Outlaw]

Grienke Also took Gregerois knees off on hard but legal slide breaking up a DP. Grienke is one tough SOB...

I'll admit I did not see this yet, but busch league? Nah, pussy league is what this has turned into. They HAVE TO throw inside and high too. Pitchers used to throw inside and high with heat when they did not even have helmets on. It was part of the game. Guys would not be leaning on top of the plate sixty or eighty years ago like they do all day now. Why? Because they WOULD throw inside, then throw inside, then throw inside some more.

I watched Jacob Turner pitch tonight. He threw one inside at Aramis Ramirez. It was shoulder/letter high. I thought it hit him. What did Turner do after that? He walked him by throwing 3 straight pitches outside and low. What did this tell me? He wanted to make sure they "knew" he was not throwing at him with those next three outside pitches. Almost like, I did not mean to throw inside so please forgive me. No, throw inside, then throw in there again, and again, and again.

Baseball became great because the game was not full of roidheads and pussies. Now, what has it become?
Think a player getting 100 games will really care or even a lifetime ban? Not if it is a high profile player who has already made 200 or 300 million dollars playing. They have mansions, and more money than all NFBCer's will ever have so I doubt it will impact their lives all that much. Other than knowing they cheated to get what they have, which in this culture seems to be acceptable and cheered.

The brawl sucked

As a Dodger fan, I am hoping this "brawl" was a team-building event that sparks some fire under their over-paid feet. But then I read this quote, laugh and realize that the Dodgers are running a M*A*S*H unit and not a baseball teaam. But I had to laugh and share...

"It got pretty ugly," Montero said. "They came out of nowhere, just throwing punches. When everybody was trying to break it up, they just kept coming and throwing punches. It was like 25 against 72, because all the DL guys were out there, too. I guess their arms were feeling pretty good because they were throwing good punches."

[The Mighty Men]

It could have been a great one, but it needed more punches and tackles. They all acted mad, and then the big $ players decided they make too much $$$ to get hurt or suspended.

It would have been better if the players stood back and let the coaches and manager go at it. Pretty physical dudes with Gibson, Matty and Mcgwire. May have been a MLB first when four coaches/managers go on the DL.

The fact that the Dodger coaches and manager were more pissed and ready to throw down than most of the players says everything you need to know about the Dodgers. McGwire nose-to-nose with Kirk Gibson was classic.

[Cocktails and Dreams]

Complete crap by Kennedy there. You don't aim at somones head like that.

[chest .rockwell]

Never been a big Kirk Gibson fan. Last night proves my theory heck at least to me... He is nothing but a bully. Look at the look in his eyes when a fired up Mark McGwire is in his face. That is not the look of one tough SOB that is the look of a guy who would behave terribly different if it was Jerry Hairston or Zach Greinke coming at him.

My point is not that I would behave any different. I would physically run from McGwire. My point is Gibson carries himself as the baddest man on the planet and well he had a chance to prove it when big Mac was pointing his finger 2 inches from his face.

[JEagle]

Gibson, Williams, Mattingly and McGwire...wish they were playing instead of most of the other scrubs

[Outlaw]

10 games for Kennedy... seems light for head hunting... and the way they will work it is, he'll miss 1 start after he drops his appeal after he makes his next start. MLB needs to eliminate this whole appeal and then drop BS. He should miss 2 starts at least. A hitter would miss 10 games. Maybe if they appeal, the appeal has to be heard and if they lose the appeal the suspension gets doubled.
