Milton Bradley Suspended 2 Games (Appealing Suspension)

[mjohnson71]

Could you imagine how long and boring games would be if everyone acted like Bradley?

 

Be a man, step out of the box, adjust something and mutter back to the ump about the cruddy call. Then step back in and make a hit. Don't spaz out like a 6 year old who didn't get their pony for Christmas.

 

If he stepped back into the batter's box after being called out on strikes, I think people would have whined even more than they did. This "incident" took seconds.

 

You know what I mean.

 

Bradley has a history of over-reacting and not maintaining control of his emotions like a normal adult. (Yes, I know, professional baseball players are not normal people.) Or are we just going to accept this as "Milton Bradley being Milton Bradley"?

Baseball players argue over bad strike 3 calls all the time. Milton's argument didn't delay the game at all, and was no big deal.

I guess I'm still trying to figure out what Bradley really did wrong. He got called out on a bad call, made his case, got tossed and left. Apparently he slightly and accidentally brushed caps with the ump. If this was Lee or Ramirez, no one would care at all, but since it's Bradley it is a big [expletive] deal.

Im accepting it as "Every player on the team in that situation, would have argued in my opinion" but it just happened to be Milton.

he could have argued without getting up in his face and making a big production out of it. if ryan theriot strikes out there, does he get 3 inches from the guys face and start screaming at him?

 

that said, this is a stupid suspension
