Beat me by a second posting this! I bet AJ deserved it.

Too bad they traded Farnsworth. He'd knock a bitch out, you know.

God I love Michael Barret. AJ is a little bitch and he had that coming. Barret's gonna get a nice suspension but it's worth it. The Cubs are going nowhere anyway.

I'm glad that SOMEONE on the team cares enough to let out some frustration. Sucks to have to listen to this prick Joe Buck talk about the Cubs though. Just now he said "Oh, they're so injured, they've got Michael Barrett hitting cleanup!" Why can't a foul ball go into the booth and hit Buck in the face?

How many players in MLB and even on the White Sox are happy to see Pierzynski punched in the face? He is a bigger douche bag than Bonds from what I have seen, minus the steroids.

I'm watching the Mets/Yanks game. They did a Fox Gamebreak thing and when they came back, Buck and McCarver of course talked about how AJP was just doing his job, blah blah blah.

AJ is so universally hated it's comical. He's like the sports version of Scott Stapp. You almost have to respect how much work it must take to get to that point.

Just saw some post-game interviews. AJ doesn't think he did anything wrong and says he was walking to pick up his helmet which was behind Barrett. Both of them confirm that AJ said nothing to Barrett to intice it all. Barrett is crediting AJ for a great play and says that he just let his emotions take control of him. He says he will respect and is willing to accept any consequences that ensue.

The cheapest of the cheap sucker punchs. AJ ran over Barrett cleanly and won the battle of home plate. Barrett being a pussy went for the sucker punch because he got owned feebly trying to block the plate.

I was ready to let bygones be bygones and not hate the Cubs anymore, but I guess not.

I dunno sounds/looks pretty lame to me by Barrett.

Didn't something like this happen on monday also?
It makes sense, since the Cubs take offense to things like, you know, playing hard, hustling, in general trying to win.

I don't know about this. Realize that when both of them were scrambling to stand up AJ bumped into Barrett and, considering he had just had his block knocked off, he was probably pretty confused and maybe thought that AJ was trying to fight him.

Ah yes, throwing his own player under the bus after a tense situation (even if the player may have overreacted).

But at least he's an excellent in-game tactician, right?

queerzinski deserved it. There was no reason for him to lean in to Barret with his shoulder. Barret was just standing there and the prick tries to walk right through him.

Re: Cubs vs.Sox brawl
 
Not a fan of either team, or any team in either's division, so I say this as a neutral observer:

Knocking over the catcher is obviously fine, but AJ deserved that punch the way he "touched" the plate.

Jim, I'm a Yanks fan but it's pretty lame coming in here as a Cards fan and posting that crap about the Cubs being 10 back.

The Cards have won the last two NL Central division titles but it's gotten them nowhere in the Series. They suck in the recent postseasons so you shouldn't be talking smack.

I'm pretty sure he said "10 games" as a suspension suggestion. But more Blanco (after the inevitable suspension however long) sure doesn't help the Cubs chances in gaining any ground.

When National League teams have only won 5 of the last 15 World Series, it doesn't really mean that much. The last two NL champs were swept.

I don't think that any of the NL teams this year have a legitimate shot at winning the World Series and I'd give 2 to 1 on the AL winning the series.

The Cardinals don't want to become the Braves- much worse when it counts in the postseason compared to the regular season.

Well to get to the LCS last year they had to beat the Padres. Oh my god wow impressive. They weren't even the best team in their own division last year.
