Yesterday Ed Wade got the Latrelle Spreewell treatment from one of his own - Shawn Chacon. Officially, the two got into what is described as a “physical altercation” - unofficially I heard that Ed Wade is actually dead, and Chacon enjoyed a nice dinner at his expense, including his liver served with a nice glass of chianti (pronounced key-ant-ee).

Apparently Chacon has been whining about being bumped from the rotation and wanted to be traded, which sure was a justified gripe since he is 2-3 with an ERA over 5. Wade asked Cecil Cooper to haul Chacon into his office so he could “chat” about it. Chacon said no. Wade went to the team’s dining room to force the issue, and that’s when things got nasty.

So, essentially a team’s general manager wanted to talk to a player about his child-like tantrum about being taken out of the starting rotation, and Chacon got so pissed about that, he decided to shove and knock down Wade.

Since then, the Astros have obviously put him on waivers to try to get rid of him. But seriously, after hearing that I’m sure you can imagine teams all over baseball are falling all over themselves to obtain a garbage “starter” who sucks in the national league (how do you think he’d do in the AL?) and also has a propensity to attack GMs. Yup, sign me up.uld remain on Chacon’s deal.
