JOE KELLY IS SUSPENDED & HEYMAN GETS OWNED ON TWITTER!


So I'm sure we all know about the benches-clearing brawl that happened on Tuesday night between the Astros and the Dodgers. We've been waiting for it to happen. We've predicted it for MONTHS. Just in case you don't know about it, there's a good summary of it HERE.

Long story short, Joe Kelly threw at Alex Bregman, and then taunted Carlos Correa on his way back to the dugout. I have to admit, I am not mad at the taunting AT ALL. The Asstros earned that. Well now, MLB has said that Kelly has earned an 8 game suspension because of the incident. 8 games?! That's a big deal on a short 60 game season. 


Are any of us really surprised that the Dodgers and Asstros had it out? No, this was a matter of WHEN and not IF. I won't even start the debate on if I think Kelly was throwing intently at Bregman's head or if I think that is acceptable. Instead, let's just focus on Jon Heyman's take on this....because it's funny.


So I have come to the conclusion that Heyman just doesn't get it. NONE of it. I don't even think he can even tell us anything about 2017 other than the ASSTROS won the World Series and it doesn't even bother him that they cheated in the process.

Let's backtrack a second. I guess Heyman doesn't realize that the 2017 Red Sox played in the ALDS against the Astros and lost, right? If that slips your mind Heyman, it's time to retire. Oh and one more thing, you are right Kelly wasn't a Dodger but he played for *drumroll please* the RED SOX! 

Ya think he feels cheated a little bit? Yeah, like the rest of us do, but the Asstros eliminated them. Of course Kelly is fired up. He was robbed from playing in the ALCS! He also basically just told every other player that wasn't a Dodger in 2017 that they have no right to be angry about a scheme affected every team in baseball. Talk about an open mouth and insert foot situation.


Bregman, Correa, Jose Altuve and the entire Astros team gave all of baseball the middle finger and got away with a slap on the wrist and then they gave a half-ass apology. Our weak commissioner Rob Manfred dropped the ball, so Kelly picked it up and made a statement. He won't be the only one. 

So Heyman says Kelly "earned" his 8-game suspension and wants to know what's someone's head equivalent to. I got one for you Heyman....WHAT IS INTEGRITY WORTH? We know the Asstros franchise has none, Manfred doesn't believe in it and baseball has been damaged because of it. 


Get a clue, Heyman! Answer my question......I bet you can't.
