The greatest moment in baseball since the 2015 World Series

If fact the first was a little more over hand than it should have been. He might have dropped him if he had kept his shoulder behind it...

Glad that douche got his. Beating that team of asswipes last year was just as satisfying, if not more, than beating the Mets.

if Bautista were punched by Jerry Sandusky I would still laugh.

Be careful, he's innocent and will defend his honor.

His due for what exactly? Hitting a lot of HRs over his career?

Thanks to Dave Eiland, who has been phenomenal with aging pitchers since he got here.

But if you want to play that game, we can. Jose Bautista's career really took off once he hit his 30s. Sure, he hasn't been suspended, but it's mighty suspicious when you jump from 13 HRs to 54 in one year, and when you have sustained power into your mid 30s for no apparent reason.

Bautista's been in a steady decline offensively since 2011 when he turned 30. If he's on steroids, he definitely should get on the ones that Volquez is presumably on instead. Would lengthen his career like Ortiz's.

For being one of the biggest douchebags in professional sports

[Nightfyre]

KC Connection wants to smear the Royals as a bunch of PED users when the list of people who blow up in size and power in Toronto grows each year.

Donaldson, Encarnacion, Bautista, Colabello, Martin, Smoak

I wonder if Tulo will start popping all of a sudden. Oh wait, he's on pace for 40+ HRs?
He couldn't even approach that at Coors!

Says the guy who roots for a team with Yordano Ventura and Kelvin Herrera as central pieces.

[KCUnited]

Agreed, I don't think a guy roiding folds that easily. Could be estrogen though.

Er, no. His first good year was in 2010, and his best was in 2011. But his last two seasons (2014 and 2015) have been his 3rd and 4th best years at the plate. He hit his 3rd highest HR total (40) last year. How is that a steady decline?

His career numbers have a prime steroid use profile. A journeyman who was never an everyday player all of a sudden becomes an OPS monster at age 30.

I wish they all were. Other than Smoak, all of those guys aren't hitting at all this year by their standards (and some like Tulo and Martin are absolutely abysmal).
