By all means, yes.When the Sox play the Yankees the first time, someone needs to drill Stanton. Apparently, he takes exception to that.
Maybe not the first at bat. Send some chin music first.
Next at bat drill his ass.
Maybe Ryan Dempster will sign a one day contract?

"It's also a simple and indisputable fact that WAR isn't the be-all end-all in valuations, especially in real life. Wanna know why? Because an ace in run-prevention for 120 innings means more often than not, a sub-standard pitcher covering for the rest of the IP that pitcher fails to provide. You can't see value in a vacuum when a player does not provide full-time production."
I think that we have a couple of guys at the top of our rotation who really would have no problem at all doing that if the need arose. All I keep hearing about is how goddam much power this yankees team has. Because you hit for power doesn't mean you are tough and I like our toughness a shitload more than I like that of any yankee. Let the games begin.
Between the age and arm problems, Dempster is probably throwing about 60 mph by now. Not sure a fastball that couldn't get a ticket on the Mass Pike is as intimidating as you hope...
So I say something in jest and you jump all over it with logic and speculation.
Lighten up Francis.

I'm guessing that with notin Spud it isn't likely to happen. lol There will be no humor aboard this vessel.
Apparently , he takes exception to that ? Who doesn't ?When the Sox play the Yankees the first time, someone needs to drill Stanton. Apparently, he takes exception to that.
Drill him all you want. Our ace had the highest FB velocity in baseball last yr. Our pen features some of the hardest throwers on the planet. If Stanton gets beaned, then JD does as well.
Hal sucks
Drilling Stanton for no good reason and starting a beanball war just for the heck of it - no, I don't see that happening.
Throwing at people is dumb.
The difference is that when Dempster drilled ARod, ARod had it coming just for being a douche and everyone including the umpire knew it.
I'd expect someone (Kimbrel?) to come inside to Stanton but not with the intention of hitting him.
It's a mere moment in a man's life between the All-Star game and the Old Timer's game.

Nah.
I agree. I was making my comment in jest.
Although pitching high and inside to Stanton does sound like fun.
