    Osuna doesn't care. You could tell he was ready to scrap as soon as Pujols came over. Got to like that edge. He'll hit someone if we have a big enough lead.

    If they decide to hit Pujols it should take him a while to run to the mound so his team mates can save him.

    Osuna is the last person who should be even thinking about hitting anyone out of anger. There are still women who don't attend Astros games since he joined the team.

    He already hit Ohtani in retaliation to Altuve last season.

    Ah, misread the previous post. I just saw 'ready to scrap', 'got to like that edge' followed by 'he'll hit someone' and assumed it had nothing to do with pitching.

    Anyway, the Angels countered a 'dumbass reckless' move with an 'uncalled for *******' move. Hopefully that's the end of it.

    Nope. Don't have to like someone with that edge.

    Well, if forced to choose I'd prefer a closer who hits other players vs one who punches himself.

    This, and I know one in particular VERY well.

    Anyway, just let it go, don’t retaliate. Show some class and move on, and get this story out of the news cycle. We’re not NY, BOS, or LA. #HoustonClassy

    I expect Jake to ultimately get downgraded to 1 game, this reliever to get 2 games, and hopefully the team doesn't bother. Pujols is definitely the most at risk, but they should understand (Jake clearly did given his reaction, what seemed civil conversation with Pujols, and his comments following the game). The pitch was too close to Jake's head, but you can't get into a back and forth that ultimately leads to somebody getting hurt.

    Not going to say anything new, but the Angels are wrong for this. Marisnick did his part by being above reproach, but it's not right.

    What does being an alpha have to do with acting like a child?

    Your right the Angels were wrong for hitting Marisnick so if there is a angels player that should be hit my vote is trout if he plays tonight that way it will stop after that.

    LOL, yeah, I'm sure it will stop after the Astros hit their star player, in response to the Angels hitting our backup outfielder who illegally bowled over their catcher and knocked him out for two months (intentional or not). That seems reasonable.

    That "star" you mention of, has burned out a while ago.

    The "star" I was quoting was Mike Trout. Pretty sure he's the best player in baseball.

    For some reason I was reading about hitting Pujols. Never mind my post. Carry on.

    Id rather let the whole thing die but if we were to retaliate, Poo holes gets my vote to get pegged.

    Yes let’s hit Pujols. Tyler White is the perfect one to do it... and then cut his ass
