I agree. Posey refused to make negative comments about it but there has been quite a few comments about it being intentional. I hope not. Yup- might be a good idea for MLB to take a look at this in terms of guidelines. They came up with some concerning pitchers hitting batters after some obvious intentional throws.
Sometimes I think about the 5 pro players get (all sports) and I think yikes- but injuries can halt a career very early for some and this is how they make a living. Plus it isn't a career that one can do for 30-40 years like others.
