    Diamondbacks are a joke of a team

    Hitting McCutchen last night and why? Some shit reliever who can't control a fastball his your player you were giving a day off but pinch hit anyway on the hand and put him on the DL. It's not like that ended your playoff chances. Maybe they'll fleece their minor league system again in the offseason for some average relievers. Diamondbacks

    Is Kirk Gibson actually handicapped...just watching him make decisions/what he will get worked up about is mind blowing.

    Um these are unwritten rules in baseball. You don't stand up for your own what are you?

    Ok fine with last night, but that game against the brewers where they were throwing at Braun with a guy at third in a tight game and then high fiving after the pitcher hit him on his second try was just comical. He obviously does not even care about winning, and neither does the owner if Kirk is still ther.

    Disagree buddy, bush league move. If Frieri was throwing at Goldy I'll take it back but that guy is a notorious gas can with control issues. Guys get hit all the time, just so happened it broke Goldscmidts hand. If hes healthy do they retaliate? I doubt it

    You shut your mouth, Russian Rocket. Nobody walks to the mound with more poise and grace as Kirk Gibson.

    Pirates are involved in these situations a lot though, aren't they?

    Pirates, Reds, Braves, etc are all a bunch of instigators.

    He should've been fired a long, long, long time ago.

    Not really sure why the franchise is keeping him around at this point. I loved Gibby as a player, but the dude is like a trained chimp as a manager.

    I think the Pirates rarely instigate

    they mostly get hit alot and don't respond...

    bunch of pussies

    You couldn't make up the way they're losing these games.

    This team couldn't perform worse if they were on auto pilot.

    He should take a wheel chair. It would match his managing skills. He could wear the handicap sticker around his neck with a lanyard and the MLB logo instead of the handicap person graphic. It would be appropriate.
