Grieving Papelbon

Jonathan Papelbon becomes less likable by the moment:

Washington Nationals closer Jonathan Papelbon filed a grievance against the organization shortly after he received a team-issued unpaid suspension for his role in a dugout fight with star outfielder Bryce Harper in September, according to a person familiar with the situation. The grievance, which was first reported by Boston radio station WEEI, adds another layer of friction to the strained relationship between Papelbon and his employer.

The person familiar with the situation said the main argument of Papelbon’s camp is that there is no precedent for a team-issued suspension over such an incident.

Sometimes, you just have to take your punishment like a man.
