to Plunk or not to Plunk.....

I am torn on whether Guillen should have asked rookie Sean Tracey to hit Hank Blalock. He knew he'd be tossed and suspended, essentially using Tracey as his sacrificial lamb. But I do know 2 things....

1) If your manager asks you to dot a guy, for God's sake, dot that mofo!!!! It's not like he's an established veteran, he's a rookie getting a cup of coffee in the Bigs.

2) Please don't cry in the dugout. Just don't do it. Moises Alou and Jason Kendall had two of the nastiest injuries I've ever seen, with bones ripping through skin, and they didn't cry. Robin Ventura got pummelled by a old man and he didn't cry. He's really embarrassing himself.

Unless his goal was to lose the trust of his teammates and his manager while looking like a total Vagina. In that case, right on Sean!
