    I just got the ESPN alert. I am surprised that Phillips and Molina didn't get a couple of days off.

    Cardinals win again.

    All that emotion, talk, posturing and fighting really helped the Reds, didn't it?

    um, no, not at all.

    What a crock.

    I guess you just have to let the melee trample you under next time, Johnny.

    Carpenter should have had at least a token (3-4 game) suspension for calling Dusty a not-very-nice name just when things were winding down.

    that will be interesting on how to start the suspension and if you challenge it, and we have already been to NYC what happens then? I say challenge it, get 5 games and call up Maloney or Lecure and tell them it is a one time deal

    I dunno. The more I think about, it is kinda hard to give Molina a suspension w/o giving BP one. And, while I think it should've been the case, from MLB's POV, it would probably have been pretty hard to suspend Carpenter w/o suspending Rolen. I don't think Cueto should've been suspended, but... who knows?

    Really only losing one start for Cueto which is probably a blessing in disguise. A little extra rest late in the season probably isn't a bad thing.

    Springer was among those fined, anyone see anything blatant he did?

    I would imagine Cueto will appeal. After MLB hears a more detailed side of it from him I would imagine it would be reduced to 4-5 games which equals one start. Nothing to get upset about or say I told you so here.
    If you have a losing record at Reds games, please stop going.

    He probably called Dusty a "punk" and then realized he was playing for the Reds.

    What a joke.

    Yadier Molina causes the benches to clear - he gets nothing but a fine. Chris Carpenter escalates the thing from a shouting match into a brawl - he gets away with nothing but a fine.

    Johnny Cueto gets piled on by 20 people, he kicks his way out of a bad situation and gets suspended seven games. Just what I thought would happen. Tony LaRussa being friends with Bud Selig really paid off.

    About what I expected. I never saw anything with Springer, but maybe with that name (Jerry) he gets fined automatically. :O)

    As for Cueto, regardless of the intent....you spike somebody repeatedly...you're gonna get suspended. To expect otherwise is simply having blinders on IMO.

    yep, Cueto choose the lesser of two evils. a 7 game suspension over being crushed and DL'ed.

    So BP runs his mouth and the net result is our best starter misses a game?

    Not the end of the world but not a net positive either.
