| Hey Ubaldo... if you actually would pitch well for more than half a year, maybe you would have gotten the deal.
Throwing at a player because you're mad the previous team didn't give you money is freaking low.

| If he meant to... incredibly ridiculous of him to do so.
IMO... he meant to.
He'll miss a start, it looks like. |

| I would've liked to seen Tulo get a couple of swings at him before they broke up the scuffle. Posted via VolNation Mobile |

| Haven't seen video of it so I don't really have a complete opinion, but I feel like the whole situation has been blown way out of proportion. |

| The way he left the mound and charged home after the pitch hit tulo, it's fairly obvious that he threw it with explicit intent to hit the batter. This can also be considered as an intent to harm the batter since they don't exactly toss the ball softly in the majors.
Now, that's typically not a big deal, right? It's part of baseball where pitchers are protecting their team's pride or protecting players from previous events. In this case it was personal and has no place in baseball. |

| The funny thing is ubaldo signed an extension the offseason before his great start. Then got mad that after that year tulo and cargo got big money. It was totally self inflicted and now he's lashing out like a sore loser. |
