Much like his manager, MehCat Ace Matt Cain is a dumb hothead

In a developing scandal around the Bigs, Martinsville staff ace Matt Cain could possibly be facing a lengthy suspension for the questionable plunking of Rousers third baseman David Wright. Wright, who was placed on the DL with a concussion and could miss the remainder of the season, is rumored to be harboring more ill will than the media is leading on. In a breaking story from a Rousers player who asked not to be identified, Wright is apparently still "really ticked" at the Martinsville hurler. This altercation is only the latest in an ongoing conflict between the clubs. Cain has also been connected with the calf and hamstring that has sidelined Rousers leadoff shortstop Jose Reyes most of the season. Cain's role in Reyes' injury was never confirmed, but he and manager Sam Kirby were seen jumping up and down and squealing with delight at a local Martinsville bar afterwards which was described by bystanders as "the gayest thing I've ever seen." The already heated rivalry between the Meetcats and Rousers has reached epic proportions combined with Wright's beaning and a Martinsville victory last week over the Rousers. Kirby, who is also the Bigs commish, is reviewing Cain's possible suspension, but many wonder whether he will behave unethically yet again and let him off with no more than a slap on the wrist.
The foundation of the Rousers team are in a boy band during the offseason called the New York "mates"
Martinsville seems headed for a playoff birth, but JP Vinson's club is suddenly a team searching for a win. With only two weeks left, there once firm spot has become a question mark and the all important playoff seeding is now up for grabs. Besides They Call Me Pat, the remaining five spots are available for the hungriest team out there. In local news, the upcoming matchup between the MehCats and our hometown biscuits looks to have more repercussions on playoff seeds than actually making it into the playoffs, but anything can happen.
