Contreas deserves hefty fine and suspension

[Red7]

He actually had a great game. If any part of the ball touches any part of that box, it’s considered a strike. He will grade out very well tonight.

[DickyBennett]

Just a hot head and I’m frankly tired of his antics

He plays with a lot of emotion and clearly lets it get the best of him but at least he has it. All I hear is fans cry about how the players show no passion. Like you never get upset and lose your cool fans are such tools

Emotion/passion is great. But it doesn’t help anyone if you can’t keep it in check and hurt the team.

very true rat23

btw, curious who throw the bubblegum on the field

I’m sure it was the Hot Head Contreas

Nobody else was outraged to do that

[hmoss859]

Not the first hot headed Cardinal. Yadi wasn’t Mr. Cool and collected.

Never saw Yadi throw a bat at umpire and hit a coach in face

Yadi could get the Red (bleep) with the best of them but Contreas crossed a serious line

That's all I was trying to say. A lot of players especially ones that actually care lose their cool. Obviously anyone should take responsibility and get whatever penalties they are given for their actions

[Dazepster]

Suspension worthy.

Can't be tossing A Bat about. Anger Management training in his near future.

A Bad Look.

[Cusecards]

I can understand reacting especially if something is said to set him off.
But it’s one thing to get tossed....and it’s another going postal and potentially facing suspension.

Nice job, defending the indefensible. Pretty rich, a toolbox calling anyone else a tool.

Not defending just not ready to crucify someone for losing their cool because it happens. He will obviously get whatever penalties and deserve them for his actions.

Hopefully the punishment is stiff.

Strike zone was very consistent - and Contreras had nothing to complain about.
Clearly a strike.

Bloom took notes.

[Just Whit]

What did Harper get?

[Melville]

He really does. Can’t throw the bat.

And a helmet.
And a bucket.

It certainly was. It’s why he got dumped so quickly. It’s one thing to beef on a borderline or even a missed call, but down cock and center? Nope. Oli getting dumped was just as stupid. It’s one thing to have you player’s back, but to keep it up until you get dumped is just dumb.

After watching the replay, Willson asked the umpire why he threw him out of the game. He was fairly calm until the umpire told Willson his reason. You could read Wilson’s lips as he said, “ I never said that” , umpire, “Yes you Did” , Willson, now adamantly, “ I never said that” then the umpire replies again and Willson goes berserk! So, whatever the umpire said is what really fired him up. It must have been pretty bad, whatever the umpire said, but we’ll never know what that was. We’ll also never know if he is disciplined for it.

It doesn’t matter what was said dude, Contreas crossed a line you don’t cross, throwing a bat is taboo

He deserves whatever punishment the league throws at him

Got to make it look like he's doing something with BDW and Bloom watching.
