If you didn’t see the video, Tommy Pham slapped Joc Pederson over a fantasy football disagreement about IR designation:
Tommy Pham slapped Joc Pederson across the head and was suspended for three games because lingering resentment from a rule regarding IR designation in their fantasy football league spilled over into real life and led to Pham’s attack.

This feels like an event that would be handled in the principal’s office of a Catholic grade school. We have group chats, fantasy football, gifs, and a “code” and a story that some poor nun is trying to keep up with. Instead its one millionaire waiting a full calendar year to slap the other. Don’t tell Tommy Pham that fantasy football is just a game.
