    I've never understood that argument. I would hope the owners of any of my favorite teams would put that enormous revenue back into the team. Certainly better than cashing in and selling off all the talent you do have in order to avoid paying people.

    Joc Pederson. Throw the ball to the fans or don't, but don't be that fucking guy who teases the throw.

    I bought tickets at the stadium the day of the first game of the 03 playoffs against the cubs. I swear there were more cub fans there than braves fans. Plus, there were hundreds of empty seats. Atlanta got spoiled with how how many times they won the division.

    Gotta say Mattingly is doing a decent job with the Marlins. They'll probably get swept by the Mets this weekend. Only because they have the better pitching. If they didn't lose 5 of 6 to the Braves. They'd probably be in 1st.

    Yordano Ventura is such a piece of shit. Too bad Machado couldn't get a few more punches in on that scumbag.

    Machado is a pretty big piece of shit himself. Hard to root for either guy in that situation.

    Yeah real awesome when he intentionally threw his bat at another player a couple years back. Lots of talent, no class. There's also this gem from the same series, when he got tagged too hard...

    Even the ump laughed at him.

    He's nothing compared to Ventura. This jerkoff is always throwing at guys. Hilarious that he's claiming that the pitch got away from him.

    You mean the one where he let go of the bat during his swing and it went flying down the third base line? He was suspended for that, but that's hardly the same thing as taking a bat and throwing it directly at a player.

    This jackass Ventura already threw at Manny in his prior at-bat yesterday, then hit him in the 5th. "One just got away." Yeah, more than one Yordo. Remember when he hit Machado & Davis in the same game last fall? As Indiff stated, he is always throwing at guys. F him. He got what he deserved.

    Ventura tried to start shit with Mike Trout, someone that could have played whack-a-mole with him.
