Sanabia and Gaby shouldn't have been suspended at all

 

EDIT: To be unbiased, Listach shouldn't be suspended either. Yeah he got on top of Volstad, but if you look at the video he's just trying to hold him down. He's not throwing punches or anything, he's just trying to protect his player like Gaby was. The fact that Gaby had to clotheline the punk Morgan to do it is besides the point.

 

Also I've completely missed how Sanabia was involved with this at all? And Veras escaped suspension? (Although I still don't know why he was ejected)

Watch it again and you'll see Sanabia throwing some punches on one of the Nats and i think even a tackle.

It's at the 18 second mark

 

EDIT: Actually, after watching it again I see that Sanabia was going at it with Adam Dunn!

 

 

So hard to see. I can only see Sanabia at a point where a very tall National yanks him outta the pile by the scruff of the neck. Is that Dunn? I don't see Sanabia attack anyone at all except attempt to lash out at the man who yanked him out, although it seems he missed.

 

EDIT: Yeah, it is Dunn. I can't tell at what point Sanabia jumps into the pile, it must be during the camera shift (he must have been sitting in the dugout?). Dunn manages to rip him outta the pile effortlessly. I have no idea why Sanabia got singled out by MLB here. I don't see him do anything at all other than be in the pile with 10 other people

 

EDIT2: Yeah, seriously. Does anyone see Sanabia AT ALL until the very noticeable Adam Dunn walks into the picture, goes towards the pile, and yanks him out by the back of his collar?

Yeah it's hard to see as well. But Sanabia knocked Dunn to the ground and it's just on the edge of the scrum, making it more easy to make out.

 

I'll tell you what though, Sanabia went up in my book for knocking Adam Dunn to the ground.

I don't think Sanabia knocked him down. Seemed like Dunn went don't on his own by yanking Sanabia out of the pile

 

 

Might be a combination of both.

 

Yup. It's so hard to tell anything. How Sanabia got singled out by MLB from this mess is truly beyond me. I don't see Sanabia doing anything in particular more so then the rest of the people in there

The suspensions of all players are scheduled to begin tonight, unless appealed, with the exception of Sanabia, whose suspension is scheduled to begin on Wednesday, pending appeal, in order to avoid overlapping with Volstad’s scheduled suspension. If any players choose to appeal, their discipline will be held in abeyance until the process is complete.

According to him, he said something like 'don't talk sh*t to the coach' to Riggleman or someone else from the Nats. It wasn't a big deal
