Bitches.

I dont care what else is going on (pennant race, Gausman finally figuring it out) you HAVE to hit someone after that bullshit. Unbelievable.

You have to hit someone for taking you deep too much?

Disagree. Win games.

They would have still won. And Im not super old school and say this every time someone gets hit, but when it's THAT blatant and THAT guy? I know he's going to be ok, but that could have ruined their season. Fuck that.


Every team needs a Zambrano type just for situations like that. Braves are too nice of a team to win anything.

They would have won that game, probably. What about future games? The guy that retaliates is dealing with a suspension and missing 1 start or multiple appearances if he is a bullpen arm. Does the 26th man on the 40-man roster give you as good of a chance to win future games?

What is hitting a random Marlins player going to do? Ureña was out. Are you going to hit Starlin who did not even attend the pitchers meeting where Ureña said he was gonna do that. Did Ureña even tell anyone or was it a solo act?

Braves have a two game lead over the Phillies. Play winning baseball. Be above dumb shit.

Braves and Marlins play next weekend. If the Braves have a 6 game lead in the division by then, and Ureña has an AB in the 5th inning and you're up 4-0, MAYBE you smack his buttcheek.

I think you misunderstood something here.

That's what the Marlins did. Braves needed to retaliate.

I would not have put you on the list of people who think this way.

or do nothing and let teams believe they can do whatever they want to your players. Also I guarantee there are players in that clubhouse upset about it, a significant portion of baseball players are still old school.

Who was the kid that got sent down to the minors because he didn't retaliate and Ozzie Guillen was pissed?

RPB is spot on here. Embarrassing look for the Braves

You, on the other hand, would've been on that list.

I thought he tried to retaliate, but ended up throwing behind the Ranger hitter or missing badly? Either way, Padilla was a shithead who hit MANY Sox batters during his tenure.

I would not have put you on the list of people who think this way.

Put me on that list. And I would've given two Marlins the business.

But i also believe there's a fine line line between purpose and cowardice. it's a shame the players quit self policing properly and the league had to step in.
