Comment on Walker on Chapman’s inside pitch by dalepearl

Ian Kennedy plunked 2 guys in the head or near the head one of them being the ace of the dodgers pitching staff and he got just 10 days. If Chapman wants to send a message to not hit our players anymore drill their very best player right between the eyes. Seems like Chapman only pitches once every 10 days as it is.

If you are going to retaliate, hit em between the butt and numbers; always was the
spot years ago, hope it continues. Anything by the head should result in a very stern decision. Knees, ankles, elbows, arms, wrists, necks, faces and heads are just not what baseball is all about. I understand the “back off the plate” and I understand the “pay back”, what I don’t understand is the life threatening and career ending jerks that don’t understand the code. jmo.

goodness gracious. i thought pete had more supporters in cincinnati than this. Throw the guy under the bus. You guys are insane just like you think the Reds will be in the playoffs this year.
I don’t get the logic you lay out. The govt gets away with it, Wild Bill got away with it because they did more good than harm. Cost of freedom. You want a player that goes all out with wreckless abandon? I do! It was fun to watch, insane you had a different type of game. Second basemen,shortstops didn’t like covering second base when Pete was on first. Pitchers hated pitching to him with his jacked up batting stance and 15 foul balls. Catchers hated him because they knew if he was coming home even on an easy out he was going in with the intention of knocking that ball out of their glove.
There is no player since Pete that played that hard. I miss that style of play myself instead of these million dollar dandies that get a hang nail and have to go on the DL. Yes, I am calling Cueto a sissy, same with Marshall and Broxton. As far as I am concerned all three are underperformers if they can’t pitch nine innings as a starter or can’t pitch every other night 2 innings in relief. Cuddling them only makes them more delicate.
Get over yourself guy you open up a waterfall you can’t turn it off and that is what happend to Pete. He became destructive when his career started to wind down. He no longer had the energy put into playing the game and he put it to other things that most of you cuddled children see as the worst thing possible.
I see as there was no way it wasn’t going to happen.
