Developing: Cole Hamels to sit for 5 Games

Cole Hamels probably should just have kept his mouth shut.

But since he didn't...and decided to boast of "Welcoming" Washington rookie Bryce Harper to the majors by hitting him with a pitch, Mr. Hamels drew the ire of Major League Baseball.

Hamels will now rest for the next 5-games. Of course if he were to not appeal and start the suspension today...he'd miss 1 start.

Well. Maybe Hamels was trying to create a rivalry with the Nationals, who currently (barely) lead the NL East, a role Philadelphia has had for several years. Or maybe he just had "Brain Fade"...
