It's official. The beef is on.

This should end the beef. Each team got their shot in. Play ball now.

It should, but the players took offense to where the ball was placed. If there's retaliation from the astros, it won't be because Marisnick wanted it, his reaction said he wants this over with.

I don’t think Marisnick intentionally tried to hurt Lucroy. I think it was a clean play with a terrible result. I also agree with the suspension. They are trying to take that play out of the game and it won’t be tolerated.

Marisnick took the high road, but that pitch was 100% for his ear hole and is uncalled for. That’s what the bench was chirping about. Had he been hit in the hip then there wouldn’t have been anything to complain about. Every single MLB fan knew he was going to get pegged. It’s all about the placement.

Maybe, probably the injury was unintentional. No way that the hit was part of his normal race to home. He was hoping to dislodge the catcher and the ball with a dangerous move. If you kill someone going 80 in a 20 you’ll get 2nd degree murder, not manslaughter.

Had he tricked Yadi Molina then no one here would be saying anything. The fact that Lucroy is one of us and in general an ambassador for the game it gets skewed. It was an ugly play, Marisnick didn’t leave third set out to truck Lucroy. It wasn’t dirty, but it doesn’t fit into the optics of today’s game. Much like targeting in football. The hit can be clean but it’s too hard so it’s illegal.

Actually, I thought it should have been a longer suspension. My thought was exactly like Lucroy's, which was I left you the entire base line for a path to home and you ran inside the base line virtually the whole way and went even more inside when Lucroy shifted more towards first base. He had an open path to home and ignored it. Do I think he did it with the intention to plow Lucroy, no, but his decisions the entire path from 3rd were bad ending in a bad result.

Angels could have sent the message without throwing at the guys head. I believe the astros will retaliate and hopefully it's in Pujos's ribs. That guy has killed us for years.

Any Astros pitcher that throws at an Angel will be tossed immediately.

Speaking of Pujols owning the Astros, this is always fun to watch.

Just gonna put this here as a reason the astros dugout was mad. Again, it's not the hbp, it's the location. Also, mike fiers threw over Luis valbuenas head 2 years ago, and never saw the field again for the Astros, so Hinch takes that kind of ____ seriously.
