Why did Davis go after Hyde? He was not happy.

Hey now, be nice to Mark, he has a higher WAR than Chris Davis this year.

So do you.

Agreed, but doubt it’s for the year. The lack of humility is what kills me. Davis hasn’t earned the right to get upset about any criticism. He should take every insult right on the chin.

It’s insane. Davis should be able to swallow his medicine like a big boy. If he had a problem with Hyde take it up with him after the game.

How long could they suspend him for conduct detrimental?

This is how I see it playing out.

1) Suspended for 3 games

2) Benched for the rest of the season

3) Released in the off-season

I don't think there be will any suspension. Tempers flare sometimes and I bet they spin it like that.

Hyde's an honest guy so we'll see what he says. Big test for a first year manager here.

Unfortunately his ego hasn’t shrunk with his production. Seriously though, I don’t think Elias is going to tolerate him being a negative clubhouse influence. This might be the best thing that ever happened and force them to  make a hard decision,

You had a chance to mention his shrinking physique and you missed it.

I can’t recall a single incident in recent years where a player has gone after his own manager. It’s even more embarrassing on a last place team. They literally have nothing to player for other than a high draft pick.

Low hanging fruit.

Obviously neither of those are gonna happen. They’ll gloss over it in the press conference. Davis claims he’s frustrated and admits his mistake. Story over

I was talking more his upper body but sure, if you want to go there.

Not bad.

Much ado about nothing.  Though I had wondered if Davis would ever snap.  Dude seems very laid back.

Almost comatose sometimes (mostly when batting).

Davis JUST praised Hyde earlier today.
