New record

Only took 8 days for me to remember why I hate MLB. What he didn't was bad enough to get him ejected, but it was worth a suspension? Fuck you, Bob Watson, you Yankee-ballwashing waste of life.

Jimmy adds up all the evidence to prove the suspension is something that came out of the rear end of a male bovine.

Any self respecting pitcher would have done exactly what Beckett did in the same situation. Abreu calls for time when Beckett's already in the wind up, he gets what he deserves. Batters should know better than to pull that kind of thing, especially against Josh.

As for the suspension? That's just going to cause more heat on the field the next time they face off. Not such a good call if you ask me.

he is the idiot that kept trying to run after beckett. he came back out to the field at least twice. he is a manager and should be made to serve a suspension. i guess it's ok for managers to keep running out there to complain to umps and to pick fights with big mean texas boys? i would have let him get a piece of beckett. his old ass would still be trying to get up.
