I get the suspension. Can justify the fine to Ventura, but if you're gonna fine him, why not Lawrie and Kazmir?

Lawrie wasn't aiming for the bag. He certainly meant to slide into Alcides. He's also the only one that actually caused a serious injury. The guy that actually didn't hit anybody is the one that got suspended. Can somebody post the gif of the slide again?

Of course he wasn't aiming for the bag. Players slide all the time into players at 2B to break up double plays. Doesn't mean there was any intent to injure on his part. I wouldn't have expected anything for him.

Studs up, nowhere near the bag. There was no double play. Escobar wasn't even blocking the bag. He was off to the side. He meant to slide through Escobar. Whether or not he meant to take him out for multiple games is largely irrelevant. He intended to slide through the man and not the bag, which makes that a dangerous and reckless play worthy of a fine and or suspension.

So you're saying Lawrie knowingly committed an act that injured Escobar. Did Lawrie not intend to do what he did? When you do something reckless that injures others, you should be responsible for the result of your actions.

Geez. Some of you just are rambling on about nothing. Nobody gets suspended for a hard slide into second. Nobody.
The other times we got plunked. All of them expect 1 was not intentional. Only a ****ing moron would think other wises. Kazmir's might have been intentional but more than likely its not. Everybody in the world knows Ventura and Herrera's were intentional. Ventura's was payback which only got a fine. Herreas was pure intent which caused the suspension. I wish our fans would wake the **** up and realize what happened because its making us look pretty stupid. |

Being reckless is a huge difference from having intent (especially in a situation where they are divvying out fines and suspensions). It was never going to happen and I'm not sure why anybody would have thought it would.

And therein lies the problem. He was going in with intent to hit the MAN with his CLEATS. That's not a baseball play. The fact that it never gets dealt with by MLB means basically that the Royals will always come out on the losing end of that deal. The other team injures the guy with no repercussions, and then we plunk him and get suspended. It's a lose-lose. If nothing ever happens, then we should just barrel over everyone all the time. **** it!
