eaa

yeah that makes sense. call out harris in the short time he’s been with a club, in his second year in the majors for not making plays at second THOUGH NOT FROM LACK OF EFFORT. Ignore baserunning and fielding mistakes from a 31 year old vet. Call out Kubel for an indecisive play (which is what I saw it as, not lack of effort) but ignore other plays.

gardy has been commended for keeping things in the locker room. and for the most part he does and i agree, thats what make these types of situations worse IMO

couldn’t disagree with you more, eaa.

Kay, my thought on Gardy calling guys out is that he has a pretty good handle on who he can call out and who he can’t - or shouldn’t. Fair or not fair isn’t the question. He’s dealing with millionaires and you don’t treat everyone the same.

on the Span ejection…K-Rod should’ve been the one ejected after the game based on his silly, over-the-top antics following the game’s final out.

NOTE: We always seem to hear about it when batters do stuff to show up a pitcher; never really seem to hear it the other way around…this is especially noteworthy in the AL, where the pitcher doesn’t have to get into the batter’s box.
