Back Off, Eh


After getting thrown at twice Monday night in retaliation for Carlos Guillen getting the brushback from a Glen Perkins "fastball", Joe Mauer gave the staredown and took two steps toward Detroit Tigers righty Armando Galarraga.

I loved this quote from Man Muscles, so Minnesota Nice.
"I thought it was unnecessary, especially the second one," he said. "But I guess that’s the way it goes, ya know?"
You betcha.

Aww! Did the wittle sideburned one get his widdle feelings hurt over a widdle inside fastball or two?

Isn't that how the game is played? That's what Bert Blyleven was blathering on about all night, wasn't he?

And how can a guy be called "Man Muscles" if Carlos Zambrano has nearly as many home runs as him for his career?

Preparing to charge the mound after ALMOST being hit by a pitch?

Who does Mauer think he is, Jason Kendall?

I think Jason Kendall has more power.

Why ever throw at Mauer? That'd be like throwing at Sean Casey or... someone else wholesome who has never been in a fight in their life.
