Bitchy Snell

I ran across this. It reminded me of his comments about GABP, while trying to find another reason, besides himself, why he gave up the HR to Ross.

This guy needs to grow up...

"Hopefully, I won't pitch in Colorado, because I know who it is and I will get them," Snell said. "I'll get them next time. I'll see if I pitch against them. If not, I'll let the guy know it's a crock of you-know-what. I'll let it breeze over this time."

"I will ... kill that dude," Snell said, his voice rising. "If I pitch, I swear, I'll get fined big-time."

stealing signs is part of the game

yes it is

i was playing summer ball in league. I was at second after i got a base hit and could see the catchers signs so i put my hand up with the number so the batter could see it. The second baseman saw and went to talk to the pitcher. Apaartly they didnt change signs and the catcher still gave the same. I held the number up again and the second baseman looked at me with a discusted look and said are u really going to play like that? It bugs me because i pitch also and when a runner is on second we mix up signals for that very reason. Its apart of the game and thats what i love about it.

I can also see Snell hitting him

because that is part of teh game. But keep it out of the press. That is just stupid, and will cause you to be fined, suspeneded, ejected, if you do seek redemption.

Please allow me to nit-pick..

"Redemption" is what Snell might seek after he would be "fined, suspended (and/or) ejected."

Right now it seems that he's seeking good old-fashioned vengenance.

(Forgive me, Justin. I wasn't around the other night when "we all got to be assholes" so thanks for allowing me the opportunity to get that out of my system.)
