Oh, for ****'s sake... How do you think Cleveland perceives all of that/those calls?
Bautista's bitch ass comments are reflected by his own bias. Guarantee you Mike Napoli or Rajai Davis would have a different view.
Statistics show the Indians have benefited from 11 bad strike/ball calls, and the Blue Jays have benefited from 10.
Indians hitters just don't throw tantrums when it happens. Because they aren't whiny little bitches.
I'll be cheering for the Cubs in the WS because I like Zobrist and Maddon, and I think Esptein's work in Chicago is awesome.
But I'd cheer for anyone matched up against the Blue Jays, because of how whiny and douchy their hitters are.
Even the Indians, who are in Kansas City's division but have done nothing to inspire ire other than simply being good.

Nailed it.
Joey wears body armor on his left arm, routinely hangs it over the strike zone, then whines like a little bitch when pitchers pitch him in. Donaldson does the same.
And before you say it's a royals/jays thing....no. He has those same issues with plenty of teams. Same with that cry baby Donaldson.
If you're gonna crowd the plate, wearing body armor, guess what....pitchers will pitch you in.
I won't even get into the crying on almost any called strike that's on the edge of the zone.
It's little league BS. And I would hate it, regardless of the team the person plays for. If salvy did it, I'd hate it (but he doesn't....cause he's a pro, and a man)
On the topic of body armor, I don't really like it. Not sure if bonds started it, but I don't like it. When you wear it, there's a certain percentage of fear that is taken out of an at bat....and it helps you hang in there a little more boldly on breaking balls. It's somewhat of unfair advantage.
I know there's probably not much that could be done about it, other than pitchers pitching in....as well as the occasional "message" pitch.
I realize brick is a big fan....but it's not just us here on the planet that think this about joey and Donaldson. Plenty of players in the league feel the same. Guarantee it.
Want a polar opposite....and a role model player that plays the game right, and kids should emulate?
