Noé Ramirez was fined and saddled with a 3 game suspension. For his “part” in the incident last night, Brad Ausmus was suspended for 1 game as well.
First, 3 games for Ramirez while Marisnick gets 2 for sending a catcher to the hospital? Second, why suspend Ausmus? The only reason is that you KNOW he ordered it (proof is unlikely), or you are sending a message that the manager will be held accountable if a pitcher throws at another player. I haven’t really done the research, but I wonder how many times pitchers have been suspended for throwing at guys in the last few years? Also I wonder, how many of them got 3 days? How many of them also saw the manager suspended?
Regardless, Ausmus will not be managing tonight’s game.
Bench coach Josh Paul is acting manager. Jose Molina will be the bench coach tonight.
