C. 1:50 -- Cole Hamels has always been a class act. Larry Bowa, on the other hand, has always been a self-serving horse's ass. Without knowing the circumstances of this PARTICULAR interaction, I'm willing to bet that this was an instance of the player being right and the manager being wrong. Hamels was almost always a model of self-control, while Bowa -- on the other hand -- was volatile, dishonest, and generally untrustworthy.
Chris Davis never was the same after he was suspended during the season for illegal substances, I think it was illegal vitamin supplements of some kind? He was fit, strong, seemingly in shape but completely lost at the plate. He got paid but was an empty uniform, Hyde was right to call him out! Baseball ⚾️
Outside of Cole Hamels most of these guys were marginal players. A few marginal players have poor ways to vent and found ways to blame others which eventually gets them to be traded away. Yasiel Puig had so much talent but often did thigs to piss of his coaches, teammates, umpires and of course the other team .
