Yea, that's what I figured.
Braves left-hander Alex Wood admitted he allowed his emotions to get the best of him before he was ejected during the decisive fifth inning of Sunday afternoon's 3-0 loss to the Pirates at Turner Field.

I have to laugh because it seems people watching on TV and reading Twitter feeds are more upset by this than ---- Alex Wood.
Kid seems to get it.
Same thing happened last week with Tehran
Relax people
While there may be specific times where you go to the media to light a fire under a guy, I don't think it's particularly constructive to consistently talk badly of your players in the media. The one thing I loved about Bobby was you knew he had the players back; whether in arguments with umps or through the media. He would tell the media Prado was the next A-Rod.

Wow, some of you guys are cherry picking and overblowing things in you hatred of Freddy. Thrown under the bus!!?? Really, I literally ROTFLMFAO You guys need to see your eye doc to get your hatred shaded lenses updated.
If we're overreacting so is every Braves forum I've read on this issue. Sounds more to me like some Fredi fans desperate to defend him no matter what he does.
Bingo!

There are other Braves forums?
"For all his tattooings he was on the whole a clean, comely looking cannibal."
Haha, yes. But this one is by far the best one and the most active too.
Not really. Braves1976 says I'm a registered Frediphile and I buried him on this issue.
Of course Wood should have calmed down. The issue is whether the Skipper needed to say anything to The Pissed-off Guy and The Sweaty Fat Guy.
Bobby never, ever did and I think that's one of the reasons guys liked playing for him.
I'm not a Fredi fan, or a hater. He's just an average to below average MLB manager. I won't be upset if he loses his job, but anyone else who replaces him isn't guaranteed to be a big improvement either.
I still don't see how he was throwing Wood under the bus. That's just silly. People are too sensitive these days. Maybe it's all of the extra estrogen from soy everyone's eating these days!
Fredi still being our manager is just as baffling as Ruben Amaro Jr. being the Phillies GM... There's no logic or sense behind it.
