Coco Crisp is a dumbass. Just charged the mound against the Rays. He got hit after last night's events. Coco had it coming to him.

Jason Bartlett started the whole mess with his knee block of second base which jammed Coco's thumb.

Coco retaliated last night and that should have been the end of it.

Sox draft Casey Kelly

With the 30th pick in round one of today's first-year player draft, the Red Sox selected shortstop Casey Kelly from Sarasota High in Sarasota, Fla. The 6-foot-3 inch, 195-pound Kelly is also a pitcher, and was ranked as the No. 31 quarterback prospect in 2008 by ESPN.com
As a senior at Sarasota High School, Kelly hit .473 (44-for-93) with 13 doubles, one triple, five homers, 31 RBIs and 11 steals in 2008. The righthander also took the mound in 12 games, going 8-1 with two saves and a 1.16 ERA. He fanned 77 and walked just 12 over 66 innings of work.
MLB.com says: "One of the better athletes in the class, whoever drafts Kelly will have to lure him from being a two-sport star at the University of Tennessee, where he is a quarterback recruit. Big and athletic, he has all the tools to play shortstop. The main question is whether he'll swing the bat well enough and that could determine his draft status as a hitter. As a pitcher, he's a bit raw, but has the makings of three outstanding pitches and could be more intriguing to scouts on the mound."

I know. Coco was making more out of it than it was. He said that if they retaliate, the Rays should hit Coco, not anyone else. They do, so he charges the mound? Dumbass.

You can't take that shit from the Devil Rays. I applaud Coco. He even showed great head movement and a nice counter right.

I just wish we still had Trot and Gabe Kapler around. They would have loved to get into that scrum. It was funny to see Jacoby out there playing patty-cake with the D-Rays.

Now Jacoby is hurt. Thanks, Coco! We don't have a centerfielder now.

I didn't see any other Sox players throwing punches, so it looks like Coco should be the only one suspended. The Rays had several players that could be suspended. :lol:
