He dared to point out the lack of logic supporting an intentional HBP in that situation.
I agree
Framber fights his mental side but he's got that dawg in him and I think with a chance to finish them off at home he balls out.
This entire dust up and it's repercussions has pissed this team off and they're out for blood.
I love what this rivalry has become.

Lol! Yep mlb doesnt have it out for the astros, nope, not at all
So you can push umpires now? Interesting.
If you had any doubt which way Manfred and MLB is going to try to skew these next 2 games - this one sided penalty of the wrong team tells you all you need to know
We better put up 15 runs tomorrow and take the umps out of it

Won't stop LMJ if there is another brawl, he'll just come out of the stands.Farmer1906 said:Lance McCullers Jr. and Matt Bush were both fined as a result of yesterday's benches-clearing incident, the league announced. Both are prohibited from sitting on their team's bench for the remainder of the ALCS.

So surely if abreu was suspended so was Garcia right? I mean they can judge the intent of one guy so surely shoving another player and two umpires is worthy of suspension?
I don't know how much more obvious Manfred and MLB could possibly be with this one sided suspension. Total BS.
How long do these appeals take? I can see Manfred expediting it so he has to serve late Word Series. Complete BS.

I got a bunch of snarky responses when I said similar. Framber is coming to destroy tomorrow. He sees how desperate the Rangers are and is going to step on their throats. Masterclass Maldy and Framber are what I am expecting.
I've thought about it since you posted. Because he's so emotional, I think that can work both ways. He can get down but he can also get pumped up. I'm buying what you're selling!
It wouldn't happen in the playoffs. He will serve it next season.

I never booed louder in my life than when he was awarding us the WS trophy last year at MMP.
I'd like to hear from Crane every once in a while when **** like this happens. I personally think he took the "sign stealing" punishment like a little *****.
This feels like a deal where MLB will hear the appeal quickly, reduce the suspension to one game, and make him miss a WS game, acting like they are beingmerciful when they are in fact tilting the table in the first place.

I disagree. I'd rather have a banner hanging rather than being macho in your eyes.

I agree but it appears his cooler head prevailed. This suspension is horse****, though. It's pure hoes mad bull*****
I think the bigger issue is that his stuff plays more to the Rangers strengths than Verlander and Javier.
I might even look to get Brown in again early as his high heat playa better.
Same reason why Neris has struggled a bit more - the Rangers have shown that high heat combined with a good breaking ball is their Achilles heel.

My guess is MLB did this knowing the Astros will appeal and he won't serve until next season. Their goal is to stop the retaliation next game.
That's my thought at least.

Bury him in the H
The probelm is that there is a full two weeks remaining before the end of the World Series. I have a hard time believing they will sit on their hands for 2 weeks. I still think they will reduce to 1 game and make him serve it in a potential WS.
To me, the better hope is that the initial ruling is meant to warn against further shenanigans for a couple of days, and then they will hear the appeal after that and drop the suspension.

Same here and I'll do the same this year.
As @Alden_Gonzalez first noted, Major League Baseball's CBA states that all appeals during the postseason must be heard within 48 hours. So, if Bryan Abreu does appeal, it is not a given that his suspension will carry over to 2024.

This is on MLB and Manfred anyways. If they'd let plays use tack to help with their grip, never have lost control of that fastball right
I think this suspension comes after dusty's comments about if there is going to be some **** going down in game 6/7. He said yeah, and MLB is trying to keep teams from escalating things further by dishing out this. Still bull**** garcia isnt getting anything. Call me a conspiracy theorists but it seems like MLB really doesnt want the astros in the WS this year
I desperately want an Astros-Snakes WS just to **** their ratings
When does he need to file his appeal? Bet mlb already has a response ready and waits a whole hour before stating what it is
I wonder how the team will react if they feel the world is against them? Have they ever been in this position before?
Rob Manfred can consume a massive bag of dicks. Clear hatred and bias towards one team to try and screw them over at every opportunity.
Amazing that there's no penalty for Garcia putting his hands on umpires and instigating the entire bench clearing, as well as charging at players.

Good. I hope they make the suspension now.
Gonna make it sweeter when we feed them all their own dicks.
I didn't believe they would win the world series until just now.
Dick feeding time

This is where graveman being hurt really sucks. I guarantee you mlb is gonna expedite the appeal before game 6, and if he even gets 1 game, you now have to have your starter cover 7 because you have two leverage guys. Maybe Hunter can cover one?
Has there ever been a situation where a player shoved/bumped/touched an umpire and was NOT suspended?
Fiers embarrassed Manfred and Manfred has been taking it out on the hometown nine ever since.
I hate the MLB
Lol reading the Rangers thread. So much delusion by posters who are typically level-headed. Really funny to see how justification hiveminds work, and how Adolis is not anywhere near a reason why they lost
