Carlos Quentin Should Not Be Permitted to Return Until Zack Greinke Does

I mean, what type of idiot rushes the mound after getting hit by a pitch in a 1-run game?  Off a 3-2 count, no less?

Sorry, Carlos, but sit you should and sit you must.  Let's see what the Commissioner's office does with this one.

Read Jayson Stark, who offers the same opinion (or at least quotes an AL executive who agrees with me).

Prof:

Suspending Quintin until Greinke can return sets a precedent. If a pitcher hits a batter and injures him for six-weeks (hypothetically), whould the pitcher sit out that long? How about the baserunner whose aggressive slide into second base takes out a shortstop for 3 months?

Slippery slopes and all those things...
