Guys when we talked about showing fight we didn’t mean fighting walls

Check out the big brain on Brewer
This is a quality tactical retreat by him. He was probably seven days from unemployment or the minors. Sometimes you gotta endure the pain.
Is this guys nuts?
Dude sux but this just adds to one of the most miserable seasons in a long time
At least they’ve reached the point where they’re so bad it’s kinda funny
Got his ass kicked by an inanimate object
lol. This season just becoming more and more embarrassing lol
At 31.. this is a bit of a late start for a lesson to be learned.
Whatever is begun in anger, ends in shame. Hopefully he didn’t just punch his career away
Remember in 04 when Farnsworth kicked the fan? That guy was nuts!! But he was built!
I do X-ray and the amount of people who do this is insane
Had an employee do that once….but he was like 21 and still learning life lessons. Could have punched many walls that wouldn’t have broken his hand but waited until he reached the bottom of the stairs and hit brick 🤦🏻♀️
He sucks, I’d just cut him as soon as possible.
It’s coming off the rails real quick. Jed should absolutely be the fall guy. I do not want to hear about our farm system, who has not produced MLB level players the last couple of years.
Was he a teammate of Devin Williams on the Brewers at any time in his career?
LOL of course he did.
Javon Wims level of stupid. Cubs are somehow making their losses even more embarrassing than they already were.
2. **Huascar Ynoa** (2021) – The Atlanta Braves pitcher broke his right hand by punching the padded dugout bench after a poor performance, leading to a significant time on the injured list [oai_citation:2,Huascar Ynoa breaks hand punching dugout](https://www.mlb.com/news/huascar-ynoa-breaks-hand-punching-dugout).
3. **Devin Williams** (2021) – The Milwaukee Brewers reliever fractured his right hand punching a wall after the team clinched the NL Central Division. This injury caused him to miss the postseason [oai_citation:3,Devin Williams has right hand fracture](https://www.mlb.com/news/devin-williams-right-hand-fracture).
4. **Phil Maton** (2022) – The Houston Astros pitcher broke his right hand after punching his locker following a disappointing outing at the end of the regular season. This injury required surgery and ruled him out of the playoffs [oai_citation:4,Phil Maton breaks hand punching locker, out for playoffs](https://www.mlb.com/news/phil-maton-breaks-hand-punching-locker-out-for-playoffs).
5. **Brock Burke** (2023) – The Texas Rangers reliever broke his non-throwing hand punching a wall after a frustrating outing, landing him on the injured list [oai_citation:5,Huascar Ynoa breaks hand punching dugout](https://www.mlb.com/news/huascar-ynoa-breaks-hand-punching-dugout).
These incidents highlight how emotional reactions can lead to serious and often career-impacting injuries for professional athletes.
Brewer kept looking in dugout yesterday like he wanted somebody come get him or something after that terrible throw kinda don’t blame him for wanting to check out for the year on this team
You take it out on the water cooler not the wall!! The Carlos Zambrano school of pitcher meltdowns taught me that years ago!!
“Can’t release me if I’m injured.”
I understand the impulse, I’ve definitely been mad enough to do it. But it’s the embarrassment of looking at a hole in the wall and the risk of injury that has kept me from ever doing it. I bet for one fleeting moment if you catch a spot between the studs it probably feels pretty good though

Even the wall hits him hard.
Since gloves aren’t a requirement, couldn’t he still pitch? I know a team wouldn’t allow it but theoretically
At least Brewer can get himself out… because he’s not getting anyone else out much like the entire Cubs’ bullpen.
Of course he did.
Walls are undefeated in fist fights.
Here are some notable instances of MLB pitchers injuring themselves by angrily punching walls or other objects:
1. **Kevin Brown** (2004) – The New York Yankees pitcher broke his non-pitching hand after punching a wall in frustration [oai_citation:1,Huascar Ynoa breaks hand punching dugout](https://www.mlb.com/news/huascar-ynoa-breaks-hand-punching-dugout).
