    Jake, I read somewhere that fans are calling Orlando "Paulo Prom Night," because he gets to third base so easily.

    I saw that too. Also saw somebody suggest 3PO. I say most Brazilian sports stars go by one name so he should simply be Paulo.

    In the past 10 days (last night and Masters Sunday), Orioles relievers have twice thrown behind Jose Bautista. On both occasions, Bautista homered later in the at bat.

    The Royals think that's a little uncalled for on Bautista's part. Too lippy.

    Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't see any stories about those pitchers being suspended.

    Circus, the Orioles' Ubaldo Jimenez got ejected in the fourth inning of a game last week (with a no-hitter going!) for hitting Pablo Sandoval a couple innings after a takeout slide.

    Even the Red Sox were surprised Jimenez got the boot.

    But yeah "Everybody's Out To Get Tha Royalz!"

    You're the one saying that throwing behind someone is an automatic suspension, and that Herrera should have gotten more. (Well, you seemed to agree with Reddick on the latter.)

    I didn't say it was an automatic suspension.

    I said Herrera was being a fucking idiot and so obviously trying to injure someone that he deserved his suspension. He threw at Lawrie twice and then pointed at his head. I also said five games sounds about right to me but I can see where Reddick is coming from.

    You're getting blinded by loyalty on this whole thing. You can't keep a seemingly simple concept straight.

    And I agreed with you that Herrera deserved his suspension. So don't talk to me about keeping things straight.
