The ejection hurts but the suspension is a killer. Why doesn’t MLB have a way to get a sample off the players hand and determine through chemical analysis if it’s illegal? Then the suspension can be issued if it’s the case.
Agreed. Get a sample sent to the lab b4 u issue a suspension. Yet ohtani bets on baseball and there’s no investigation. Too bad the Mets didn’t sign him as a closer.
It was an entry inspection. Diaz had yet to take the mound... Therefore, having rosin on his hand was a violation of the rule. You aren't allowed to come into a game with rosin from the dugout or bullpen, you may only use the bag on the mound. The rules were correctly applied.
@@snerdtergusonyeah.. that’s not true. According to rule 3.01 and 6.02 a player can’t have a foreign substance on his glove or uniform while coming into the game however can have rosin on his arm or hand. Once on on the mound the player can not add any substance directly to the ball or be in possession of ANY foreign substance including rosin which is why they use the one on the mound
Sugar and Mendosa should have argued much more vehemently against the ejection. Even David Cohn said on the air that looking at the zoomed in pic - Diaz's hand appeared to be "normal"
About Edwin Diaz getting thrown out of last nights game the rule states: "Major League Baseball (MLB) Rule 6.02 states that pitchers cannot have any foreign substance on or in their possession. This includes pitchers' hands, gloves, and uniforms. Pitchers are allowed to use rosin bags on their hands, wrists, and forearms, but only with league-approved substances. Other substances that are prohibited include spider tack, pine tar, and sunscreen mixed with sweat. If an umpire determines that a pitcher has too much sticky substance on their hands or other areas, they can be ejected from the game and automatically suspended. The umpire has the final say on what constitutes too much, and they may conduct more thorough and random checks. Players who refuse to be inspected, or managers who argue the ejection, may also be ejected and suspended" Now if the rule is stated and worded in this way why was Sugar thrown out and suspended for using a legal substance (rosin). The rule needs to be written in a way where the blue pieces of the field can just throw someone out of the game because they dont like how sticky someones hand feels
As a Dbacks fan i think its weird that both these save pitchers said that they didn't and won't change their routine after the suspension. it does seem like the umps are doing that on purpose to give the other team a chance, glad the cubs didn't come back. Hoping Diaz appeals successfully
SOOO00OO00 WHAT'S THE BIG DEAL IF HE DIDN'T CLEAR CLEAN THE STUFF FROM THE PREVIOUS INNING?? IF IT WORKED WELL WHILE PITCHING? WHY TAKE IT OFF. THE SAYING GOES : IF IT AIN'T BROKE ? WHY FIX IT ???
The caption says he used 'drugs rosin/sweat' then it goes uh oh, and if you play it back it says 'iraq/crossing sweat'. Come on now google, get your story straight!
@inbredhorses that ejection was very Angel Hernandez. I thought when he retired all bad calls and ejection problems were solved and the trash took itself out. Guilty until proven innocent Mr. MLB Rules Cop?
Yeah, When a Pitcher is Caught using something illegal on His Pitching Hand, instead of being ejected from the game, that Pitcher Should be Forced to Pitch with His Opposite Hand/Arm for at least Three Batters.
what better system can there be when the umps caught him "red-handed", and ejected him. League rule then kicks in and the pitcher gets an automatic 10-day suspension. The system is pretty good, if you ask most people about this incident.
@@rayrussell6258 How About the Pitcher that is Caught Cheating Has to Wear a Baseball Cap that says “DUMB” in the Front and “ASS” in the Back for the Remainder of the Season.
The problem is pitchers are allowed to put stuff on their hands and then the umpires, who are basically incompetent have to decide whether that the stuff on the hand is illegal. Most times they have the pitcher wash it off, but in the case of an exceptionally incompetent umpire they ruin a team’s season. At least MLB should wipe off the offending hand and test what is on it, before suspending someone for 10 games. Why the players agreed to giving umpires and mlb this power over them is dumb. Thank goodness I don’t go to games anymore.
MLB rules has gotten ridicules with there rules. If it’s going to be a problem using the same substance that pitchers have been using for years, then ban it.
@johnnyappleseed79 the magic of chemistry was hiding the substance from that weak method of checking by umpires. From now on, when they check the Mets, it will be more thoroughly. It appears, from bits and pieces coming out after the game, that the Mets pitcher(s) hide it by using resin with the chemical out in the bullpen, before they come to the mound. The umps won't wait for Mets pitchers to wipe off hands before they check, from now on.
The catchers load the balls everytime the ump's hand them a new one. You ever seen them check the catchers? Just little dab will do ya. Any residual on the pitchers fingers usually gets wiped off on their hats. But they'll always cry rosin if they do get caught. That's what their told to do.
I Grew on the whole, but in this case he was correctly tossed from the game and given suspension. Having yet to touch the bag on the mound, any rosin on his hand was there in violation of the rules.
Computer glitches have killed countless humans. A Computer glitch killed 275 in a train massacre in India last year. AI can't even help one order a Big Mac in the McDonald's Drive Thru. Keep it away from everything that matters.
What Edwin Diaz should have said was that the “Foreign” Substance that He had on His Hand wasn’t Foreign because it was made in the United States.
😂😂😂😂😂
😂 hilarious

You can't use rosin in the dugout or bullpen. He came to the mound with sticky hand.
So Edwin basically came out like that dirty hands & said “hey umpires check me please” lmao.
They check relief pitchers as they enter the game
Let's see how well he pitches when he comes back
They will alter the chemistry of the substance he uses, so it won't show up so well in high heat next time!!

@quetzalflight5790, ummm, he didn't pitch the previous inning. He didn't end up pitching at all.
Ummm, yes ya did.

With Smith on the mound as closer, the Mets will come back again 7 games under 500

It was much much hotter today
Who TF watches baseball anyways
The umpires union is the reason this league SUCKS and MLB has been castrated 😂😂😂😂 NO TESTIES!
I knew the Mets were cheating during this win streak.
So, legal for the white players, but brown must sit down. Great league you have there. Rule by umpire. Who needs the MLB.
Not true mad max was suspended 10 games and drew smith for sticky substance in 2023
