"I'm depending on the league to try to put a stop to this seemingly premeditated retaliation that I'm hearing about," Baker said Saturday morning. "And in most instances in life, you get kind of reprimanded when you have premeditated anything. I'm just hoping that the league puts a stop to this before somebody gets hurt."

I’m gonna go tell the teacher that Billy wants to fight you. This way, you’ll be protected from getting your arse kicked.

I have no problem with this. The hitters are gonna get drilled one way or the other. Dusty is doing what a good manager does: standing up for his guys.

So hes trying to get ahead of the violent actions caused by the Dodgers/Yankees led media and that's a bad thing?

I take back my posts. Having Dusty Baker as manager is punishment enough. Enjoy his Eeyore looking arse walking around when he’s lost the team and fan base.

And they'll be rightly suspended.

Just visited ESPN’s website. Three of the top six news stories are Astros related, and we’re at the beginning is spring training. The media clearly smells blood in the water.

They’re not gonna throw at them. All this faux outrage by the players is to make themselves look better. They do shady shite too.


The only one that should get targeted is Mike Fiers. Middles open!

Not sure what the OP's issue with a manager trying to protect his players. That's literally one of his duties as the manager.

What if you were trying to protect your players, but the way you go about it makes your players even more vulnerable?

You're an absolute retard. I cant stand the Astros and I think that the majority of their fans on this board are obnoxious douchebags, but what the hell do you want Dusty to say?

frick yeah let them hit our guys. I want pitchers head hunting our boys, because I think they need a good lesson. This organization deserves it because they cheated. Hurrrrr.

Not sure why this is even a thread.

The irony here is Dustbag is an old school unwritten rules guy. Him clamoring for protection is out of character.

quote:

"If you do that you're in serious trouble," Baker said. "It's not unwritten. If it starts off unwritten, it won't remain. I even got a warning from the league [office] last year from the legal department. They were talking about possible beanball [wars] and I said something like `No one wants to get into a beanball [war] with us because we have some guys who throw exceptionally hard, and it hurts.'
"I got a warning from the legal department that that could be construed as, I don't know the legal term, but it's probably `aspiring to hurt' or something."

Baker said he didn't believe the letter from 2003 had anything to do with his one-game suspension earlier this season for allegedly "inciting fans" at Wrigley Field during an argument with umpire C.B. Bucknor.
