We just need to tell Vitello's agent to write up a contract with whatever salary/incentives/buyout they feel is fair, we add 10% to those numbers, and then sign that shit.
There was a comment that it was a "jerky move" when he celebrated coming around third, but Arkansas has done that every homerun... It's fun. People are weird.
They did that at our dugout? It's not really my preference, but emotions are higher than ever there. Doubt coach and Max like he did it. Watch for one in the back or knee tomorrow.
Yeah, I'm all for the celebrations, bat flips, trash talking, watching your homeruns, etc. A lot of baseball people are hung up on that "respect the game" nonsense.
My favorite parts of that walk-off video are: 1) the immediate "oh shit" reaction from the catcher and 2) the broken hearted attempt from the outfielder then giving up after 4 steps to just watch it sail over his head.
From what I can tell, this coaching staff loves swag. They probably encourage such actions. Do it and know there's a chance you are gonna take one in the ribs tomorrow. If they do, take it and go along with business.
Actually Max said he wasn't directing that at the dugout and had nothing to to with Arky celebrating earlier. Said he was just pumped and it was directed at the crowd. Kinda funny he did say "it could be misconstrued. I guess we will see", so he knows he may get pegged but is in [uck fay]it mode.
If you don’t like the other team celebrating, don’t give the other team a reason to celebrate. It’s that simple.
That's the way I've always looked at it, never understood being a [itch bay] and throwing at a guy for taunting/celebrating.
