Western Suspensions

MLB handed down suspensions today for the brawl between the Padres and the Rockies:

San Diego Padres pitchers Luis Perdomo and Buddy Baumann have both been suspended for their roles in Wednesdayâ??s bench-clearing incident between the Padres and Rockies at Coors Field. Perdomo, whose pitch sailed behind Rockies third baseman Nolan Arenado and sparked the melee, was suspended five games, while Baumann was suspended one game.

Arenado also received a five-game suspension while Rockies outfielder Gerardo Parra has received a four-game suspension.

It seems a bit unfair that Perdomo basically misses one start while Arenado misses five. I do like the the suspensions are not slaps on the wrist.

    They both lose 5 days pay. Also, if they appeal he does not even miss 1 start he just has an extra day between starts
