    Are you fucking kidding me? This is the biggest bullshit suspension of all time and only shows once more how fucking bitter Watson is.

    "New York Yankees reliever Kyle Farnsworth was suspended for three games and fined Saturday for throwing a fastball behind the neck of Boston slugger Manny Ramirez earlier in the week."

    http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=3354494

    Even fuckin Ramirez himself found nothing wrong with it at all after Arod had gotten intentionally hit the night before. And what happened there, not a fucking thing.

    (IF you think I'm pissed, you have no idea)

    Yankees pitching staff needs to teach their pitchers to have better control of the ball. Last year two 98 mph heaters just happened to slip out of Joba's hand and go over Yuke's head and now a 97 mph heater behind the head of Manny?

    Btw - If you're keeping score now the Sox owe the Yanks another one. Considering they never tried any pay back after the two head hunting heaters from Joba last year until this year.

    Suspending players for not hitting batters? GHEY

    Was the guy who missed Clemens twice suspended from the Mets?

    If you take Pedro into account the Yankees still owe Boston about 150.

    Since it doesn't seem to matter if you actually throw intentionally at somebody in Watson's eyes, I hope Joba hits Ramirez with one of his 100mph heaters the next time they play. Then when the retaliation comes Boston can take the suspensions.

    Why not? It was intentional. The idiot manager Valentine even got pissed because he missed. They should have all been suspended.

    Retaliation should be allowed one time so long as nobody gets beaned.

    If you hit a guy on his ass or leg or arm, that should be fine. Hitting a guy in the head, whether intentional or by accident, should result in an ejection and automatic fine.

    Farnsworth should not have been suspended.




    Oh, and this is for one mod in particular-

    Sorry if this thread violates the rule that states Cakes is not allowed to post in a Yankees-centric thread.

    Cordially yours,

    Cakes

    Hey, you and I are saying the same thing..even Murrell is...Farnsworth shouldn't have been suspended. That's the only reason I am so pissed about this. Even Ramirez saw nothing wrong in it. He said "We went after their big guy the night before, it's only expected"..that's the way the game is played but Watson with his personal vendetta against the Yankees sees it differently. It's ok to hit their stars but don't miss the other team's or I'll suspend you.

    Same last year with Chamberlain. He threw at Youkilis after they hit both Jeter and Arod. He missed. At least that was more understandable because it was over his head and not behind his back like Farnsworth's was. That's what makes this so ridiculous.

    He should have been suspended BUT the sox pitchers better start getting the same treatment or Id keep beaming the sox players till everyone is suspended and you take a week off of baseball. Everyone should get the same treatment

    Is Farnsworth good for anything other than throwing at guys? No Yankee fan I know actually wants to see him pitch for real anyway.

    How many times did Pedro Hit Jeter in his wrists?
    How many times has A-Rod been hit already?

    HIT, Not Missed or sent a message?
    Yet, Nothing gets done but asa a Yankee does it, action must be taken. It's BS.

    Close plays, Beans. It doesn't seem to go our way.
    When was the last time we got a close play called our way when we were clearly right? It just doesn't happen.

    I'm not gonna gay there's a Memo floating around cause that's just conspiratorial bs but there seems to be an overwhelming anti-Yankee mentality that creates this type of shit every year. It's sickening.
