I don't think it is past the realm of possibility that AJ would have done what Delmon Young did last night.

Would that have been a cheap play as well if AJ did it?

It's a matter of perception.

Yes.

Young #1 went right for AJ rather than the plate and #2 went for the head instead of shoulder to the gut to knock the ball loose.

It was a dirty play no matter who did it and no matter who it was against.

I think Young was gonna rail him and kinda got caught in between because A.J. was upright. At that point I think he was just doing an A-Rod type bitch slap to try and knock the ball out.


I dont think his idea was to fuck up A.J.

Young is a punk and a whackjob. It's hard to say what he was thinking. This is the fucktard that threw his bat at an umpire in the minors after all.

Come on it is AJ, who wouldnt want to get a shot in on him if you had the chance?

Am I wrong for being slightly impressed with that bat throw?

Like a fuckn Knife, hit him right in the chest!

Marksman!

Thats fine, and Young could have dropped his shoulder, plowed him over and given AJ a much better shot than he did yesterday.

But he chose to attempt a forearm to the face, a dirty attempt that failed.

Yeah that seems to be the thing in all of this...Young ended up looking worse cause AJ wasn't where he thought he was going to be so he pretty much whiffed on the forearm. If you are going to take a cheap shot at someone at least make it count.

It's not even so much that Young shoved him in the face. It's that he wasn't trying to score when he did it. He went away from the plate to hit him.

Good enough for me

I agree with Frank.

You can substitute Player X and Player Y into this same scenerio and it would be dirty either way.
