i'm talking manager vs. manager dude.  who has the jewelry. 

CASE CLOSED!

Really. Maddon is in over his head. Davey used to tussle with Whitey Herzog of the '80s Cardinals when Maddon was still managing some high school team somewhere.

Hopefully Strasburg won't melt during the heat tonight, and hopefully Joe Maddon gets hit by a foul ball and can't manage the rest of the series..

Wishing injury on people. You know you've hit rock bottom.

Why do people always stoop to that level?

To borrow an old playground quip, "Maddon can't carry Davey's jock."

Because at the end of the day being a good guy doesn't matter. It doesn't pay the bills and it doesn't win baseball games. And I'm not stooping to any level.

Really? So win by any means necessary? Being a good guy is all that matters. Ask those PED users who can't get in the HOF.

Yeah because every good guy that's played the game will make it into the HOF and help a team win a championship? And who are you to say that they PED users aren't good guys? You don't know them, not all cheaters are bad people. Being a good guy doesn't matter, while it's nice as long as the player helps the team win at the end of the day that's what really counts.

Uh ... this talk of Davey vs Maddon is absurd. Davey had a stacked Mets team. Maddon has been dealing with owners who's payrolls wouldn't pay half the salaries on the Nationals.

A lot of stacked teams don't win anything though, Davey has a ring and Maddon doesn't.

I don't even know where to start.  Yes, we all want to win but I don't want it bad enough to cheat. And I want nothing to do with people who do. Those are the same people who will stab you in the back because they have no morals and can't be trusted.

Integrity is all we have at the end of the day. That is all.

True. But Maddon is still an a-hole.

The ball should fly out tonight in this humidity.

Let's hope Stras can stay cool and hydrated.

They better throw at someone weak like Lombo because Morse, Harper, Stras, etc would kick their ass.

Strasburg could get HBP

SF: Harper wouldn't attack them. Harper would steal home.

Well we aren't playing the games so that doesn't matter, I would never cheat but if someone on my favorite team cheats and it leads to winning I wouldn't necessarily be upset about it. And if integrity is all you have at the end of the day that's sad. That is all.

Washington Nationals. Having a winning season, then talk.

- Maddon

Pretty much ends that argument, huh?

Or we could back up to the original issue, where Maddon is behaving like a 14 year old.

no pitcher is going to HBP Stras when they have to stand in the batters box against him later.
