Worth it. Astros are trash.

Actually watched the game. Yes I love the Giants but also grew up loving the Big Red Machine. My opinion isn’t skewed because I know the game (the real game not the video game) and no I’m not a tree hugging liberal that likes to be taxed to death. Don’t worry about the level I played at but it was higher than D1 college Rookie

Simple, Kelly has a history of being a headhunter and throw in all his antics in that inning trying to stir up trouble, well you got what you deserved. Also love how is so tough talking [censored] as he walks into the dugout, that little skinny man, really?
-
Dude F the Astros!! They deserve whatever happens to them in the future!! Bring on the beanballs!!! F’n cheating losers!!!
-
I have more respect for EVERYONE that juiced than I do the cheating scumbag Astros!!

Rather be a skinny man than known as a player that cheated to be a part of a World Series winning team

I don't have a problem with what Kelly did, but generally I think there needs to be more self-policing in baseball, similar to hockey. 99% of the time (Kelly is the exception) I have a problem with a pitcher throwing 90mph+ at a guy 60 feet away from him while the batter has no recourse. I think that if you throw at a batter, then (and only then) the batter should be able to charge the mound unobstructed. This will significantly cut down on intentional hit batsmen as pitchers will no longer be a protected class.
Obligatory Nolan Ryan/Robin Ventura knuckle sandwich.

That is a huge suspension for a shortened season (about 20 games in a normal season!), but I was just watching the Rockies/A’s game and one of the announcers made a good point. It lead to a benches clearing situation where 60 guys were all up in each others’ business, and that’s exactly the kind of situation MLB is trying to avoid.
MLB should have done something about the Astros players for cheating if they wanted to avoid this situation

The really odd thing is, if you were watching the game, he was really having a hard time finding the zone. He wasn't even close. As a Dodger fan watching a close game against the hated Astros, it was making my stomach turn.
It did not seem intentional by any stretch. It felt more like a tragic case of the Yips.
If you thought that one "got away", you must be smoking crack..

Then suspended Correa for starting the bench clearing and brought everyone together

Pfft. So much whining, hate, and [censored]-hurtedness... But I guess it's to be expected.
Schmoe Kelly got what he deserved - should've gotten more!
Like Dusty said: "We don't start nothin', but we don't take nothin' either." Dang straight! Go Stros.

Agree 100%

Yup, this is what i knew would happen with that proclamation before the season, no way can intent be determined, so basically because the Astros cheated, the consequence is special treatment, you can hit any player in the league as long as they aren't the Astros. How nice it will be for them to not have to worry about inside pitches. If i was on that team, id be crowding the plate every AB, virtually standing on top of it.

I do smoke crack but not while watching baseball.
My point is that they ALL "got away" from him that night but you'd known that were you watching his entire outing rather than just commenting after learning about the suspension, then watching the highlights. (Funny enough, this is how self-serving logic works.)

Up 3 with 2 men on. The logic doesn't hold up. Also, if you're that accurate and want to hit a guy, you hit them.

Crack has damaged your brain. Die hard fan so I watched every inning, listen to the experts, doing it on 3-0 even more dangerous than sending a message on the first pitch. Plus get your facts straight, Correa struck out and did not say a word until Kelly said nice swing b..h. Said this while the little coward is hurrying back to the dugout.
