What have we here? Has Rob “The Neglectful” Manfred finally established a precedent that was both too long in coming and likely unsustainable given his look-the-other-way track record?

As of Thursday, two days after the episode, a report surfaced that MLB will suspend or has suspended Brewers reliever Abner Uribe for three games following on-the-mound behavior that even his manager, Pat Murphy, condemned as “unacceptable.”

Uribe, at home against the Cards on Tuesday, ended the top of the eighth inning with a strikeout followed by a vulgar, man overboard!, “right here” WWE-style crotch chops “celebration” aimed at the visitors’ dugout and perhaps with a guest appearance on Pat McAfee’s ESPN/WWE cross-promo show for juvenile reprobates in mind.

In short, Uribe’s act was excessive even in view of Manfred’s personal certification of “kids-attracting” bat- flips, home plate posing, muscles flexing and other immodest, all-about-me displays in place of gracious, sportsmanlike conduct, as if American society needs baseball to add to its civil decline.
