Let the players work it out. I'm for it as long as you throw at their backside. No ear holes.

How many pitchers have been tossed? Or can you even get tossed in preseason?

I still say to this day. If a pitcher intentionally hits a batter, then the batter should just take the bat and smash the catcher all to hell.

I'm more of a fan of on the next pitch the bat might slip out of the batter's hands....right towards the Pitcher. And the Commissioner has indicated that if this becomes a problem in the regular season he just may increase Pitcher suspensions from three games to five or more.

I don't like what the Astros did at all but completely disagree with teams throwing at them now.

I don't think the teams are "throwing" at them... -Bregman was hit by a splitter that got away from the pitcher, not intentional or retaliation -Altuve was hit in the foot by a curveball in the dirt, not intentional or retaliation -Dustin Garneau, Aledmys Diaz, Osvaldo Duarte, Alex De Goti and Jake Meyers weren't part of the 2017 squad why would they be targeted as retaliation for something they didn't do?
Stop pushing a narrative that is pure BS...

It’s baseball. You don’t want the chance of being hit by a pitch, stick with T-ball.
Luke 6:22-23
22 Blessed are you when people hate you, when they exclude you, insult you, and slander your name as evil because of the Son of Man.
23 Rejoice in that day and leap for joy. Take note—your reward is great in heaven, for this is the way their ancestors used to treat the prophets.

Agree, it’s baseball... don’t cheat... play by the rules... respect the game. Let the players handle it bc obviously no one else is going to at this point.
