Greinke: Fractured collar bone

[kevinb]

I predict a major rules change from MLB.  Fighting will become a 15-20 game suspension.

That would be lame. I like watching fights in any and all sports. Instead MLB should enforce a no scream match from managers to umpires unless one of them hits the other.

[Blarg]

Quentin is going to be suspended and any Dodger pitcher that hits him after that will be as well.

[Reveille1984]

He's ripped bro, he just can't avoid them with all those muscles.

[jshep]

pulled this from Twitter: Quentin has been hit a league-high 97 pitches since 2008.

 

I'm guessing there might be a slight uptick in that rate.

[kevinb]

Grienke is a wuss. Instead of sitting back waiting for it, charge him and straight tackle him to the ground.

[jshep]

Someone suggested Quentin should be suspended for the same amount of time as Greinke's DL stint.

 

I actually like that idea.

[Tyler]

Greinke is a wuss? Your and idoit. The dude is 1/4th the size of Quentin. gtfo

Yeah, but injuries this bad can destroy a guy's career.

 

The Dodgers owe Greinke $147 million, so who knows how much they eat because of Quentin.

Very rarely do fights cause this type of damage.  The Dodgers will be out several million plus medical expenses. 

 

 

I'm surprised they don't have some kind of insurance.

Who knows if they do or don't. 

 

But do you think the premiums on a $147 mil contract come cheap?  Not exactly.

If Quentin isn't plucked next week by the Dodgers, it will be another Padre.

Sadly, I might have to watch a Dodger game instead of an Angel game. Probably more exciting.

Mattingly said it in the post game.

Mattingly said it in the post game.

"If he plays another game before Greinke can pitch, there's something wrong."

Yes, and mandatory anger management classes. We can't have this type of violence on display in front of our innocent children.

"Now starting for your Dodgers, _______!"

[mp170.6]

It's not that, it's the money the Dodgers will lose over this injury. 

[Amazing Larry]

Grienke reminds me of the 1st guy in Tyson's Punch Out. Glass Joe

He always struck me as a Don Flamenco type of guy.

Man, these next Dodgers/Padres games are going to be incredible.

Kemp and Quentin face to face in the hallway.

As Quentin walked into the parking lot, Kemp told him, “We’ll see, bitch.”

[Tyler]

<3 Kemp

 

I'd do the same thing if I was Kemp.

[AngelsAndRamsFan]

Kemp hasn't been scaring anyone with his bat this year or at the end of last year.  

[SoCALkid]

Easy for wannabe tough guys like Kemp to talk trash after the fact and probably surrounded by security. Where was he to back up Greinke? Didn't see him jump in until the benches were on the field. That being said I hope Greinke makes a quick recovery, he's too good of a pitcher to miss so much time on the dl.

Huh? He lost it after he found out Greinke was injured.

[jshep]

Well if Quentin wants to take revenge on every pitch who hits him, he's got quite the hit list.

 

[SoCALkid]

I didn't see him do a damn thing besides being held back by Beckett with one arm. Real scary.
