MLB drug policy

[5GoldGloves:OF,75]

In Plato's LAWS, he recommends a specific punishment for a crime. If you commit the same crime while drunk, the punishment is DOUBLED.

Fair enough... but Mantle supposedly got around that -- when his vision was TRIPLED from the night before -- by just swinging at the ball in the middle.

Trot was the OG.
pedroia needs to be on the list too.
JBj need not apply.

For the record....

JBJ is an absolute dirtdog! LOL :0
The big reason Trot & Pedey are considered MAJOR league dirtdog, is because they were both so slow, they HAD TO DIVE for almost everything to make a play.

LOL :0

JBJ... Makes long runs look easy. Impossible catches look routine.

Still.... NEVER SEEN a RS Center fielder's face, shoulders, etc. So familiar with that wall.
Also, I hear he eats that warning track Dirk for breakfast!

I really hope we don't let this guy go!
Straight up BALLS TO THE WALL!
BEST RS CF'r of any generation!

dirtdog!

The downfall of your game relying on straight dirtdogism?
Pedey.

First time I saw him, I told my wife that I LOVED his hustle & dirtdog ethic, but that he was not long for the game.
You simply CAN'T sell out your body on every play, and swing from your arss on every pitch, and expect to have a long career.

Sadly.... I was dead right.

Saddest thing? His career was ended by a douche he stuck up for! WTF? Still dont get that... BUT, I admire his effort to play it off as nothing big.
I guess?

I plugged JBJ into the dirt dog equation and he failed. Sorry.

I would debate you, but then it would invariably end badly for me, where I was once again taken to the corporate Talksox woodshed. Restraining orders issued, and sent out on a Bloomberg apology tour...
Best I issue peremptory mea culpas, self-flaggelate, and beg forgiveness for my transgressions...

Not long for this game?

Pedroia played for 11 full seasons and in over 1500 games. 99% of all Major Leaguers won’t even come close to those totals.

He still has more games than guys you think have been around too long, like Brett Gardner...

[mvp 78]

Mt equation is simply this:

Would Steve Silva call the player a dirt dog?
