Who's sorry now, Cliff Lee?
Mariners pitcher Cliff Lee has been suspended for the first five games of the regular season and fined an undisclosed amount for throwing a pitch over the head of Chris Snyder earlier this week.
I'm sure his macho BS was well worth the price. Lee, naturally is appealing against this heinous miscarriage of justice... Personally, and despite what most Seattle fans think, I reckon it's exactly what should happen. Head-hunting is never acceptable - if he'd hit Snyder would it have caused less damage because it was spring training? Of course not.

I have to say
While I don’t really argue with Lee getting suspended, it’s pretty inconsistent of MLB to let Cain waltz off after plunking Fielder, and suspend Lee for throwing at Snyder.

Cain's was apparently intentional
It was apparently retaliation for something that happened last season.

Nah.
Cain was just upset because God preferred Fielder’s sacrifice.

Zito
D’oh!
Well, if they aren’t ZOMG! Sanchez or Timmeh, all Giants pitchers pretty much blur together to me.

+1
For ZOMGZ Sanchez being mentioned still. Love it.

Somehow I doubt he is a vegetarian as he claims. Then again a lot of junk food is vegetarian.
Nice strikeout!
Dood

That would
just make him a guido, not a vegetarian.

Throwing at the head
Is not the same as throwing at a large, flabby back.
I wouldn't argue with that
And I’m not saying Cain deserves a five game suspension, but he hit a dude for a grudge he’s apparently been nursing since September. You’d think there should at least be a fine for that.

Yeah, I agree
That’s not exactly equal treatment..

Still
Regular season means he’s actually losing money.
"Now we can just call you Kishi Laptop, Esquire."
Fair point.

Anyone wanna bet
that Snyder gets beaned again over this?
When?
We don’t play them this year.

Unless we face them in the World Series
Oh, man, how much would the networks hate that match-up?

it does mean that your entire family would enjoy it?

Snyder gets beaned
Then Byrnes.

And now, adding injury to insult...
Cliff Lee has a right lower abdominal strain and was treated in Seattle today by team doctor Edward Khalfayan… Lee underwent ultra-sound and was given platelet rich plasma (PRP) injection. He’ll be re-evaluated in seven days… Lee believes he suffered abdominal strain during collision with Arizona’s Chris Snyder in Tucson last Monday.

And.... here comes the justification for beaning Snydes
from hundreds of Mariner fans.
