gomarlins9703 Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Martinez fined Major League Baseball fined Carlos Martinez $500 for what head of discipline Bob Watson termed "overly aggressive gestures" after a strikeout of Marlon Anderson in an April 16 game against the Nationals odd, if anything Anderson should have been fined. And WTF is $500, thats nothing, even to a rookie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 That is the lamest fine ever, he did nothing wrong IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hollyberry Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 I didn't even know he did something wrong. I thought he just pumped his first or something along those lines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 If anything Marlon Anderson should be fined for being a whiner and almost starting a fight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeLowell Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 LMAO, weak. It is not like Martinez gave Anderson or Frank Robinson the finger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDon Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Intersting. If fine's like that were handed out to everyone Julian Tavares would be going broke. eh...maybe not.....$500 an appearance for Tavares and he still has plenty left over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Looks like old Frank's still got some pull in the MLB discipline office Should start fining all those hitters who flip their bats and/or watch their homeruns go out too then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beetle Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Not to hate on our guy or anything, but I did think at time Carlos's effusiveness was a tad much, especially for a rookie. But to fine him for it? That's baloney. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 But the thing is, he had done it before and no fines. Marlon Anderson throws a hissy fit and he gets fined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beetle Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 But the thing is, he had done it before and no fines. Marlon Anderson throws a hissy fit and he gets fined. Right; the fine is baloney. Some players just have more pull than others, I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Juanky Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 He shouldn't have been fined. Nothing wrong with taunting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flamarlins3 Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 I wonder if Manzy ever got fined for his ridiculous actions...or AA for that matter. This makes no sense. He must have said something to Byrd that we don't know about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lefty Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Ya I read this in the paper and I literally LOLed. WTF is a 500 dollar fine? Did the commisioner's office need a new cappuccino machine or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
industrialescampeon Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Or Beckett for teasing Howard...or did he now? Well I remember ol' Bulldog pumping his fist and cursing when he struck out a bunch of guys and he never got fined. This is all mielda haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
