It was sarcasm. It is hilarious people here and the National media have such a big problem with Yordano Ventura, but when other teams and pitchers do the same things every night not a word is said. Which brings me to my next point. The reason people don't like it when the Royals do it? Cause the little brother has grown up and bloodied your nose, and nobody knows how to react without saying "they need to grow up". I also find it hilarious that Smandjrdizairjaeasikardza is getting SHELLED today. That punk needed twice the suspension of anyone else.
you're likely right, the national media and MLB are probably determined to bring the Evil Empire in Kansas City down after they had their first post-season appearance in 30 years.....I'm sure Venturas suspension and bad press has nothing to do with the fact that he's been acting like a giant douche all season.
You obviously have had your feelings hurt. Please point out one thing he has done that has not happened with other pitchers this year. I know everyone thinks they should just lay down when other teams continue to hit them at record rates, and injure them with dirty, bush-league slides. Yes, I know, it is ok if the other teams do punk things, but not ok for the Royals to react.
In all seriousness, if Ventura has only done what every other pitcher has done, why is he the one suspended?
I have given specific examples of pitchers cussing at hitters after the ball is hit. Not a thing done. Batters and dugouts scream at the Royals during games, nothing done.
Can't argue with you. I haven't watched much baseball this year so far, so I can't speak to this situation at all. I was just wondering why Ventura was singled out more than anybody else. Sounds like you are wondering the same thing.
Never stated that. I think there is alot of evidence to prove they are not even close to consistent with their penalties. I have given examples why I feel that way. Since you are so sure this is all on the Royals doing, refute any of the examples of behavior by other players/teaks that are going unpunished/noticed.
did the benches clear when Bumgarner muttered something under his breath AFTER the play was over? You're comparing apples to panzer tanks....
Not sure he is. The benches cleared with KC and the Sox because Eaton quickly retorted back to Ventura. Eaton acted as much of an arse as anyone in that incident, and probably more. Really, Ventura hasn't done much more than say a few bad words and throw a pitch at Lawrie. His incident with Trout is puzzling.
Please. That incident started way earlier with Smardixjnsisfndirjxjxixnia mouthing off and screaming at Royals player. Punk also hit several Royals on opening day because he can't handle being beat. He also sought out Cain immediately and ran over a base coach. He was looking for a reason to fight. So please explain how he got LESS games than Ventura.
Also, since Eaton was screaming at Ventura before he responded (because he didn't like getting quick-pitched), please explain how he got no games and is blameless. Basically what you are claiming is teams can scream obscenities, injure, and throw at the Royals... but they can't react? Sounds logical. Who are you a fan of?
Your logic is flawed. You want to blame Ventura because he said some bad words, and forgive everyone else. And now tonight Escobar took a 96mph fastball to the head. Let me guess "control problems" like every team has been saying. Another guy hurt because they can't handle being whipped by little brother. MLB won't do shit this time either, until the Royals do something to push back.
Ok fine. I don't blame Ventura. But his suspension has zero to do with unfair treatment targeted at the royals
Why no suspension for Eaton, and why did he get more than the Sox players decking coaches and seeking out specific players? Still no answer or explanation, and I am guessing you will continue to side step that.
Because MLB is out to get the royals, which is why they had one player suspended and the Sux had two... Is that the answer you are looking for?
I stand corrected. I thought the other suspensions were from their other fights
Thank you. At least now I understand you had no idea what you were talking about. Also, what "other fights" are you referring to? Just curious. Still silent on who you are a fan of?
Not at all. I kind of figured you don't know what actually happened, and have some kind of bias.
Phillies fan. I was referring to the benches clearing in Ventura's previous starts....
Are you afraid to admit you think MLB has a bias against the royals because you now realize how stupid you would sound if you did?
No. I think it is against small market teams, and upcoming teams. Has been that way for a long time. So now benches clearing = fights?
You are putting too much stock into the couple incidents you have recently seen on TV and not understanding the track record of Ventura coming up through the minor leagues. The incident with Eaton has been nothing out of the ordinary when it comes to his behavior.
Please cite examples of Venturas minor league rep. Because Twitter was busy with the same thing about Eaton, and that was actual baseball people talking.
I have first hand experiences having played against both of them, they are both cancers...
You seem fairly ignorant so I won't go down that road with you, but it isn't that hard to figure out who I am. Have a good night bud...
I am all ears. You come here with that username and claim to be a former pro ball player. No reason to be upset, but you have offered nothing except a claim that you played against them. You could be literally thousands of people.
