Even if he recovers in 4 weeks (he wont, based on his ever expanding timeframes with Cleveland), he will have to go through quite a bit of throwing programs without a minor league rehab starts available. My guess, if he throws this year, its out of the pen.

So obviously fuck the Astros. Getting that out there. But I do not agree with throwing 95 mph fastballs at their heads. Someone’s gonna fucking die.

Agreed. Hit them in the ass if you want to throw at them. That ball at Correa's head was pretty scary.

I don’t condone hitting anyone in the head either, not sure he could have even hit anything he was aiming. I was more talking about the faces he was making and the players telling each other to F off.

My comment wasn’t directed to you specifically.  I loved his faces too, shit cracked me up. I’m all good with 70 mph breaking balls at Astros players asses. But 100mph fastballs at their heads is dangerous and they don’t deserve that

Hopefully Dusty doesn’t die during all of this. It’ll stress him.

Dusty may have started all that anyway. Yelling at Kelly and calling him names.

I’m honestly not sure the Correa one was even intentional. Looked like a slider gone wrong. It was 87 MPH and had wild spin coming out of his hand.

The bregman one is the one I’m talking about 

Also what did baker yell? I didn’t hear that. I saw his quote after the game that said Correa was mad because when he struck out, Kelly yelled “nice swing bitch”

Regardless....I don’t want this season killing Dusty. I didn’t like him as a manager and really never have, but he’s a good dude that loves the game.

I read that after one pitch, someone who may have been Dusty yelled something along the lines of "Get the fuck back on the mound" to Kelly.

He yelled to Kelly to “get back in the mound little fucker”. 

The Bergman one was at his back. A little high, but the duck made it look head high

I mean, you can clearly hear it. No fans in the stands makes it quite clear.

All I said was I didn’t hear that. I believe you that it happened but it just doesn’t sound like something dusty would do. Guess he’s sticking up for his players, who knows

Yep, at his back. It was nowhere near his head. No idea what you were watching.

And as he started to duck, it gets a little high up on the back (as I mentioned). That ball hits the bottom of the #2 if he doesn’t duck though.

Lol anyone can take a screen shot. I watched the video, thing was thrown at his head with intent to hurt. 

And even if it’s thrown at his back, why are we okay with throwing 100mph fastballs at players backs? Such a stupid baseball thing.

I don’t disagree with the second part. Retaliation in baseball is dumb. That’s probably Manfreds fault for being a bitch though. 

I just don’t think it was anywhere near his head. But it was intended to hurt for sure.

Haah you crack me up man. All that back and forth just because you agree it’s intended to harm but it was thrown at his back, not head.
