whitesoxfan99 Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 Anyone else see this? Someone threw a bottle at him after he made an error that cost the Dodgers some runs. He walked over to the stands and spiked the bottle over there. He was ejected and I have to think he'll get suspended. Way to be there for your team when they need you Milton. :rolly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBAHO Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 He was dealt from Cleveland exactly because of this type of behaviour. Also here are Frankly Gutierrez's stats in AA from July, the prospect who Bradley was dealt for. .302 AVG, 35 RBI's in 70 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bones Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 I haven't seen what happened and I'm not defending what Bradley did, which was obviously not the right choice by endangering other fans who had nothing to do with the incident, but fans have gotten out of control in recent years. People need to remember that this is just sports and these players do this for a living. Granted that the "fans" that do this are usually drunk and in my mind not true fans, it has gotten ridiculous. It reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where Jerry gets heckled and then retaliates by going to the lady's office and heckling her. Most of these people wouldn't dare do or say what they do if they saw the player on the street so why is it any different when they're sitting in the stands. It shouldn't be.

qwerty Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 Milton is the Ron Artest of baseball. Every bulls fan i talk to say how much they regret trading him and well i don't. He is a punk and that is not exactly needed on the bulls right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll probably beat up his coach during a game at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a punk and that is noy exactly needed on the bulls right now. The Bulls weren't going anywhere with that nucleus anyways. Elton Brand is a solid player who doesn't seem to help his team win ball games. Artest got exposed last year in the Eastern Conference Finals when Tayshaun Prince made him his b****. And while Brad Miller is a nice player he certainly isn't leading a team to the promised land. That team would be just a mediocre eastern conference team who even if they made the playoffs would be knocked out early (which I guess is better then having no chance at all to make the playoffs).

I agree but so far that brand trade looks pretty terrible. Also always liked miller wouldn't mind having him around. But can't change the past.

But can't change the past. If Tyson can ever stay healthy, that trade won't look so bad. I like Elton. But I never thought he was a guy you could build a team around. If Tyson can live up to his potential, he could very well be just as good as Brand. As far as Miller goes. I think it's a case of the system making the player. The Kings system is perfect for Miller. I don't see him having the same type of success on any other team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowand44 Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 . I don't see him having the same type of success on any other team. How about the pacers?? Tyson will never be as good as brand, I like TC and I think he can be a very good role player but that trade was just plain stupid, imo.

T R U Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 If the Dodgers dont want Bradley anymore ide me more than welcoming to have him on the Sox.. Someone threw a f***ing beer bottle at him... Thats uncalled for just the same as what he did.. At least he didnt throw the bottle AT the fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 Question for the "Get Jose Guillen" contingent: Is Milton Bradley a good enough hitter to ignore HIS antics and get him on the Sox? It completely depends on the price. If it's cheap...hell yeah he's worth it. He can be a very solid hitter(like his .300+ BA tells you, and his 20 homers or so say). But to me, Milton Bradley comes off as an arrogant asshole, while Jose Guillen just seems to be a guy who gets it done on the field and then does his own little thing when not playing. One is more then likely going to get in trouble because of what he does on the field and, quite frankly, because of what he can't do on the field. Milton Bradley acts like he is one of the best players in the league...hot dogging around and showing pitchers up, and that will end up getting him a fastball in the earhole. Meanwhile, I'm quite honestly not sure if I've ever seen Jose Guillen show up an opposing player like that. What I have seen or read about at the very least is him getting very upset about his own pitcher's not protecting him, and him throwing tantrum's. To me, it really is tough...because one side of me would never want a hot dog on my team ever, because the basic principle of that is completely wrong and I hate whenever anybody ever shows up another player...that can even be a White Sox player and I still get upset. But when I look at the Twins of the past 3 years, I saw something that I do see in Milton Bradley...a cocky arrogance about that that just screams 'We're going to kick your ass and there's nothing you can do about it'...they have a swagger in their step. Due to that, they are very confident in their abilities, and they do exactly what they think they're going to do to you. Basically...I'd love to have Milton Bradley if he came at the right price...I would love to see both Guillen and Bradley on the Sox team at the same time, assuming the price is right. That is key...you do not want to overpay for players who may be problem children, and will not play unless they have their way. Anyways, I think that clears it up a little.

witesoxfan Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 BTW...Bradley has been suspended for the rest of the year, like Guillen, but he will not appeal and will enter anger management.
