Seattle Mariners are PUNKS!!

What the hell was the M's pitching doing lastnight. Throwing at Valdy's head in two separate at bats. It was sweet that Valdy ripped the next pitch out of the park in dead center after the first knock down pitch, but the Mariners showed no class when trying to take out the Angels super star in two separate at bats just as we are heading into the play offs

    I only saw highlights but I am pretty sure the second time was because of the way Vlad flicked his bat and stared at the pitcher when he hit his home run. Whether or not Vlad was pi$$ed off about a previous brushback pitch or not THAT stuff he did after he hit the homerun is begging to be thrown at again. Almost automatic ... again, I am not defending any side here but when you show up a team THAT blatantly you better wear a footbal helmet the next time up.

  • Soft, Thanks for your response. The way I see it Vald won the battle. He was thrown at, he stepped back up to the plate and drove the next pitch 420 ft into center field and out of the park. Vald had every right to "flex" at the pitcher before be went into his home run trot. End of story.

    Next time up, this punk try's it again. At this point it became deadly to us. Some idiot on the mound trying to take out our best player a week before the play-offs start.

  • It was ridiculous and moronic and inexcusable...at no point does headhunting become acceptable, and the guy should have been tossed because of it.

    I don't want a guy with that poor of skill in handling his emotions on the M's, let alone pitching.

    I agree that Vlad won that battle the second he connected his bat to ball. I do think he showed up the M's pitcher too much with his antics and that usually gets you thrown at again. It happens so many times. Whether or not we agree about a response being appropriate I can bet the Mariners did. The problem is that next pitch was at and over his head. Not good and if the M's pitcher knew better he would have gone for the butt .... image

  • The is a little more to the story. Earlier in the inning, Mathis had to duck out of the way from a pitch thrown over his head from Campillo. When Guerrero came up a little later in the same inning, Campillo threw high and inside at him. Guerrero crushed the next pitch for a home run and watched it sail. Few innings later, Campillo AGAIN throws at Guerrero's head.

    That is 3 attempts from basically a minor league pitcher throwing at a hitters' head. If you want to hit someone, aim at their back or lower half.

  • Pitchers getting "revenge" at homerun hitters is so moronic.

    If pitcher's don't want to see hitters trotting slowly around the bases, then don't pitch so poorly next time!!!
  • perkdogperkdog Posts: 30,658 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Whatever the case is here, I got no problem with pitchers hitting batters in the A$$ or thigh but to throw at a guys head is just way too dangerous, they should tighten up on this and start fining these guys who do it.
  • The M's pitcher involved was suspended for 4 games today. Should have been more. Oh well, he's been in the majors for 5 days and and gets suspended for 4!

    It was a thing of beauty watching Vald crush that ball high and deep in to the night sky way out in centerfield.

  • I hope he's not on the roster next year...the M's have been pretty good about getting rid of bad character guys (Mateo was a pitcher who had a domestic abuse arrest and was essentially dumped).

    can "debate" around here sink any lower? I mean, this is ridiculous. Just when I think I have read some of the dumbest things that can fly out of a human beings mouth it gets topped.

    Noooo Brian Shearon of Modesto California .... no Red Sox would beat anybody until they couldn't play or pitch anymore. That is just your stupid head thinking stupid things because mommy and daddy were a bad match and made a stupid person. Not that there is anything wrong with that ..... happens everyday.

    So it's okay for you to wish death upon people, constantly instigate flame wars, call a posters' mothers "ho"s, circumvent the bad word filter, and question if they are a fan (even though you are the biggest fair-weathered bandwagoner here)?

    You freaking hyprocrite. Of all the things you posted about me and my family did I once threaten to kick your butt (which would be pretty easy)? Nope, because I don't need to resort to petty comments like that.. And it wasn't said in jest, "I am not even kidding." That IS a threat of physical violence and shows your true character.. It goes to prove that not only are you a terrible, horrible person on forums but also one in real life.

    Pathetic.

    And speaking of your mom, look here, son. Anyone can show your mom a better time than she's ever had in her life. The only reason no one has taken her out is because she is considered the ultimate slump buster and used only in the absolute worst case scenario. Until then, she will constinue traveling different Sea World parks under the alias of Shamu.

    And finally, nice to see you changed your sig line once again. Since you have ZERO connection to "your" teams, it was pretty hyprocrital. However, I think your new one is even moreso:

    A conservative is a man who is too cowardly to fight and too fat to run.

    No it's called looking back and admitting I made a mistake.

    Something obviously people like you cannot possibly do.

    And stownie, 'slump buster'? Oh boy...perhaps it's time for you to move on, when your miserable, pathetic life has devolved to the point where you attacking me isn't enough and you feel the need to go after my mom. Why don't you go look in the mirror and ask yourself why you exist.

  • Yeah, I am tossing 'em back as I type.

    I am in the mood for some Springer entertainment, and this is the place.

    A few weeks back some guys got all upset at me for adding my 'WWF' storyline to the debacle, if you know what I mean, but I dont' mind. I was hoping it would open some eyes and right the ship a bit.

    I said this place was boring and uniteresting, and it was/is because people would rather engage in the WWF/Springer atmosphere, than some good baseball talk. I would spend some time to give some information that a lot of people don't realize, and it would get drowned out by this. Everybody involved has equal stake in that.

    Heck, many said that my stuff was uniteresting. Maybe so to them, but not everyone likes to think and dig deep...hence this place is uniteresting. I had some nice studies I wanted to post, but I see no sense in it as this stuff will get much more play.

    Everyone flocks to the flame wars. Just look at the DowngoesFrazier stuff, and the guy who incited him. Read Fraziers stuff deeply a few times. He speaks a lot of truth in many of his comments. As a result, this place is boring and uniteresting because it is about as engrossing as a Springer show.

    People limit their minds, don't think for themselves, and fall into the masses. That is a comfortable place to be, but not the best place.

    If my words are taken as an insult, then I can't do much about it. They are thoughts from what I witnessed. It is my opinion. Sure, one poster has a higher claim in all this, but that does nothing to exonerate the others for their part.

    People have pulled the "opinion" card on me many times on here...even though those were fact based debates and opinion wasn't really an element. But on the opinion based things that inspired my words, I am not allowed to then express mine?

    << <i>Soft,

    If my words are taken as an insult, then I can't do much about it. They are thoughts from what I witnessed. It is my opinion. Sure, one poster has a higher claim in all this, but that does nothing to exonerate the others for their part.

    People have pulled the "opinion" card on me many times on here...even though those were fact based debates and opinion wasn't really an element. But on the opinion based things that inspired my words, I am not allowed to then express mine?

    I don't care what you have witnessed. I care about what WE ALL have experienced. So, you can hop on your moral soap box all you want regarding this. It is important that you know that you don't have one of ten fingers on the pulse of this.

    And your words are more of a insult to yourself really ..... since you don't have a clue about this whole mess. AND YOU DON'T. Tell me, why is it that you throw your "opinion" around about this when getting hammered? If you had any clue about what this has all been about you would not be on the side of someone who has wished death, or promised bodily harm on one of us. SPARE US ALL your way off base drunken therioes on this matter that you have no feel for.
