Re: Youkilis Charges the Mound.
no, neither should happen....on either part.
there is no 'good' reason to do so, none.
Re: Youkilis Charges the Mound.
They'll both appeal. Porcello will miss, what? One start at the most.

Youkilis isn't appealing. He's starting the suspension tonight. Porcello is appealing and will hopefully get it reduced. Even at five games, at most it'll just push him back a day or something.
Re: Youkilis Charges the Mound.
he will likely just be pushed back a day from his next start

The a$$hat Tony Kornheiser on PTI today was ripping apart Rick. Saying he meant it and should have gotten a much longer suspension than Youkilis.
Talk about off-base.

After being plunked square in the back, Youkilis took no time to toss his bat toward the bat boy and huff and puff toward the mound. Porcello throws his hands out and takes a few steps back to get off the uneven mound and to probably sell that it was unintentional. Everyone knows it was intentional, and honestly, I don't blame Porcello for being a little scared. Youkilis is a big guy and remember, Porcello is just 20-years old. Youkilis was cutting down trees and inventing the gayest batting stance ever when Porcello was still eating oatmeal and watching Blues Clues.
It's Hilarious.

Now a bench clearing brawl between the Giants and Dodgers. Jeez.

MLB Network says both are appealing.

The headline says "Youkilis, Porcello appeal suspensions" but then the second paragraph:
Quote:
Youkilis will begin his suspension during Wednesday night's game against Detroit. Porcello appealed, and no penalty will take effect until the process is complete.
Re: Youkilis Charges the Mound.
Ok apparently no one is appealing anything. Why is the press so ****ing useless??

Porcello was originally appealing it, but he dropped the appeal.

It probably works out for the Tigers anyways. Porcello is going to have his innings limited in some way so missing a start won't hurt him.
