Joe Maddon has never been afraid to stand up for his guys, and if he feels someone is causing problems for one his guys, expect the Cubs skipper to make his opinion very clear. Maddon did just that Monday afternoon, after being ejected in the 8th inning of the Cubs brutal 4-3 loss to the Brewers when Maddon attempted to argue balls and strikes with home plate umpire Gabe Morales.
Maddon got the hook rather quickly, who admitted after the game he was more or less in that conversation to support CJ Edwards - who was also ejected for arguing balls and strikes.
