Looks like Castellanos has been suspended two games, which he's appealing.  Ridiculous.

 If that is worth a suspension, there are going to be a lot of suspensions this year.

What punishment, if any, do you think Castellanos should receive?

I have the same question for you now VoR, what do you think the punishment should be?

I'm not sure there should have been a punishment for Castellanos, but maybe that's my bias.

I'm okay giving Castellanos a punishment, if Molina had the exact same one.  If no punishment for Molina, then no punishment for Castellanos.

Nothing. He was kicked out of the game and that was punishment enough. I don't see that flex at home plate being much different then people flexing on the mound after a big strikeout, tossing a bat after a home run, etc.

Does he get to play while he appeals?

That one is worth a thousand words!  Hand on neck!?  Whatever happened the punishment for the player with his hand on another players neck should be by far the most serious penalty unless there is evidence someone else did something more egregious.

After watching those videos the suspension doesn't make any sense to me.
