    not sure if Julio Castillo is a top prospect, but this probably won't boost his stock.

    From the sounds of it, the league should have declared a double forfeit.

    The guy tried to hit the dugout, but sent it into the seats?

    No wonder he's in Class A/

    OK, so I only watched the video twice, but you're telling me he MISSED THE ENTIRE FUCKING DUGOUT? From about five feet away? How is that even possible?

    I thought Rich Hill was working out his control issues in Mesa.

    Instead, the league president overturned the umps ejection decisions because the managers would have been forced to play pitchers in the outfield. That's bullshit.

    You don't wanna play pitchers in the outfield, make sure your guys know not to dick it up by swinging punches. Don't wanna play pitchers in the outfield, tear a new one into your team postgame.

    I preface this by saying I know nothing of the law, but that guy seems to be lucky he's only facing assault charges.

    A baseball, in the hands of a professional pitcher, can be a deadly weapon. Especially in the manner with which this fuckstick used it. He intended to hurt someone, and hurt them badly. Unfortunately the fan got it in the mush.

    The pitcher, whoever he is, is deserving of a 1-year ban at the very least. I don't think a lifetime ban is out of the question.
