I'm glad to see MLB put the hammer down on Urena. I was thinking more about this earlier today in that we've seen incidents where the team that is wronged ends up getting hurt more in the short term what with Snitker and Alex Cora getting ejected in similar situations. I think there needs to be some contextualizing by the umpires in that they need to throw out the pitcher/manager of the team that does this kind of crap.

Re: 8/13 - 8/26 Game Discussion Thread
Seriously Phillies, how does a team trying to make the playoffs give up 21 runs (and counting) to this Mets team? I'm almost impressed. I think the Mets have doubled their runs scored tally for the year in the past 2 games
11 unearned runs as well lolComment

Re: 8/13 - 8/26 Game Discussion Thread
I am so tired of baseball pitchers (sorry Jr, lol). They are the only ones who are "allowed" to show emotion, and if you're too good as a batter or flip a bat you get hit. Bunch of nonsense. He threw the ball as hard as he could at the guy because he's been destroying them.
Pitchers can take their fragile mentalities and kick rocks.
Now Atlanta will retaliate at some point and the whole dumb cycle starts again.Comment

You’re joking right? 6 games is a “hammer?”Comment

My favorite stat line from the Mets absolutely crushing the Philles?
Mark Leiter Jr. gives up 4 hits and walks 3 in 1 inning. 7 runs (including a Grand Slam to Jose Bautista) and zero of them earned. LOL. The baseball scoring gods were shining down on him today.Chicago Cubs | Chicago Bulls | Green Bay Packers | Michigan WolverinesComment

Didn't see any of Lester's outing, but judging by the goose egg on the board, I'm guessing it went pretty well. Nice to see him perform well for a change since the ASB.Comment

Re: 8/13 - 8/26 Game Discussion Thread
The only constant with this Cubs team is change. Never the same result twice in a row, lol. Jon Lester looked like World Series Hero version instead of Washed Up Bum version tonight. Offense was in "off" setting tonight after getting to Milwaukee for 8 runs yesterday, after being shutout the day before. Tomorrow should be an offensive explosion, if I've remembered to carry the one..Chicago Cubs | Chicago Bulls | Green Bay Packers | Michigan WolverinesComment
