I put the Dodgers in the same category as Boston and the Yankees.
While they are in the NL, they are still a high dollar club that likes buy the top talent and buy championships.
Ok, now I see your point.
I read it, like Aguilar was barking at Manny, because this wasn't their first encounter, so i guess I was just reading too much into it.
Manny didnt go into details, he told a reporter it was because of an old incident in the minors, and they talked later in the game, and they were good. He said what happens on the field, stays on the field.
I think most people are overlooking the fact that Aguilar and Manny had issues in minor league ball.
10K is a very very minor slap on the wrist.
Way to go for MLB being such an astute authority and keeping their players in line.
what I meant was, tricks like that have been around long before A-Rod did it.
things happen all the time on the field between the players during the season, that we never catch on to,
Sometimes it somebody on the bench yelling go at the running holding at third trying to tag up and score after the ball is caught.
Even stupid things like the hidden ball trick has been pulled off at the major league level.
My Md high school baseball coach was teaching this back in the 1970s as a way to confuse the runners. I lost count of how many maryland state baseball championships his teams won back then.
But, heck lets blame A-Rod.
With the lack of contract renegotiation to Manny and Schoop, 2 of the key core. It almost makes me wonder, if the plan to blow up the team was set before this disastrous season got underway.
