Delmon Young called up by Tampa Bay

[NorthsideAvenger]

WTG, Tampa Bay, teach the kid maturity by promoting him, after showing he can't handle the pressure of professional baseball.

 

I know, Delmon is an incredible talent, but something tells me, with his attitude, he won't ever reach his potential.

Barrett gets 10 days for punching another man in the face. Outside of a baseball park, that's assault. Young didn't go at the ump with that intensity. Instead he threw a bat. Big whoop.

 

That's absurd.

 

A bat is far more dangerous than a fist. Throwing a bat at somebody is also assault, quite possible with a deadly weapon.

A bat is far more dangerous than a fist if it's swung, but thrown? Would you rather be punched in the face or hit with a bat thrown from 10, 20 feet? I'd take the bat, and hypotheticals are fun.

 

I'd like to know who's throwing the punch before I make my decision on that one. Also, in the event of a bat being thrown at me, would I get to wear the chest protector like the ump?

If anyone (beyond my mention) brings up the Model Penal Code (again), I'm never opening this thread again.

Leave it up to the WHite Sox to do that. Typical Guillen move.

[NCCubFan]

In his first three major league games he's 8 for 11 with 1 HR, 4 RBI, and 3 runs scored.

 

What a bust. He's made one out every game. :D

Not surprising in the least.
