Reports today are that he didn't even make it to their dugout and never swung the bat and he was stopped by his own teammates.

Maybe he took a page out of the Carlos Zambrano playbook as to how to make it to the Cubs roster.

So, are we definitive of what has happened yet?

Either way, if this young man actually grabbed a bat and had intention to go after an individual (or entire team), the rage involved is something more pronounced than that of normal behavior. Was he stepped on at the bag? Did someone look at him wrong? Did some one say something he did not like? Perhaps one or all of these things are true, but still to fester on it then amass enough blind rage as to throw civility and reason to the wind, grab a bat as a weapon with supposed intent to harm and actually have to be restrained during his blind raging attempt to physically damage someone is more than just a error in judgment, it's a clear sign of psychological issues. Issues that are most likely deep ceded and self destructive with no quick fix. I wish him the best of luck but it is actions like this that would make me not want to touch someone with a 10 foot pole, as a collector or a manager...

Let him keep the bat, but tell him Kim Jong-Un said something real bad about his Momma.

All I care about is that Javier Baez didn't accidentally take a bat to the eye or slip and tear his ACL or something.

Glad it's only five games for the sake of my stash, but what a terrible thing to do. Hopefully someone lets him know that crap like this won't be tolerated.

Chin Music for sure when he does return. And when he plays next against the team this happened with.

Wow!!!!!!! There are going to be more people doing this, if they did not set a precedents on this case.

Do you think players premeditate what they are going to do if they are beaned, spiked, etc???

Suspensions mean nothing.

Maybe he was sick of being in prospect rush and just lost it. Cant say I blame him.
