May 20, 200619 yr QUOTE(rudylaw @ May 20, 2006 -> 08:01 PM) I really hope AJ does not get suspended. There is no reason why he should be. I think Anderson will get 5 games or so and may be 1 or 2 for Scotty. I am very proud of BA for getting right in there. He just earned tons of respect. They even said a player that doesn't get ejected will not be suspended..

May 20, 200619 yr If AJ gets suspended, baseball is a joke. Why would AJ get suspended for getting sucker punched?

AJ will get 5 ( just because ) and BA and Mabry will get 5 apiece. 20 is seriously excessive, they would never go that high. He'll get around 10, AJ will not get 5 for doing nothing, he'll get 2 tops if anything at all. BA will get 5 and I'm not really sure about Mabry.

My guess is five tops for Barrett, Mabry, BA and Pods -- they'll probably suspend AJ too. Reason? Becuse he's AJ. BTW, thanks, Linnwood for the pic. I joined NUKE (and probably a few others) and am using it as my wallpaper.

They have to give barrett more than the rest simply because he started the whole thing, if BA and Mabry get 5, Barrett has to get more. It's just the way things work.

AJ and Mabry shouldn't get any, however they may each get 1 game. BA could get as many as 7, probably more like 4 or 5 (especially after they appeal); Barret at the most 3-4 more than BA.
May 20, 200619 yr David Schuster just said on the Score that Mabry had to be taken to the hospital as a precaution for injured ribs. Look for him to be out whether he's suspended or not.

It's just the way things work. Agreed, but I don't have confidence that MLB will see it the same way we all do. They may find AJ's plate slap rather provocative, to say the least.

May 20, 200619 yr Wow, the only thing better than this is speculation about what could happen tommorrow
May 20, 200619 yr QUOTE(Kalapse @ May 20, 2006 -> 05:12 PM) Mabry hurt his ribs during the brawl. Looks like BA did some serious damage. BA's stock just went up another few points in my book.............and the chances for some serious ugliness in the upcomming games with these tools just got a lot better.
May 20, 200619 yr It's good to see the national media is not siding with the Cubs, just because they're the Cubs. I can't wait to see BBTN's POV on this also.

I can't wait to see BBTN's POV on this also. Brantley on ESPN basically said people may not want to hear it, but A.J. didn't do anything wrong in this, it was all on Barrett. Personally, if I was Barrett (sp?) I would be embarassed that I took a free, sucker punch, at someone and I couldn't even knock them off their feet or stun them... I would say likely nothing will happen tomorrow, but with Zambrano on the mound, it will be interesting, that guy is nuts, and if he starts to lose his control and give up a few runs I could imagine him pelting someone.
May 20, 200619 yr I also like how Barrett had a completely open and clean shot at AJ and couldn't even knock him down. That a boy Michael.
