If Toronto Blue Jays star Marcus Stroman is pitching against your team, you probably don't like him. He can be pretty demonstrative and eccentric on the mound, and on Tuesday against the Boston Red Sox, his antics rubbed manager Alex Cora the wrong way.

Boston's Michael Chavis called timeout at the plate, with the likely intent of messing up Stroman's timing. The second Chavis entered the box and looked ready to swing, Stroman quick-pitched him, which led to a routine groundout.

That led Cora to say this:

"I was telling (home plate umpire) Alan (Porter), if he's going to get on our guys, get on him," Cora said. "It's the same thing with him every day. He competes a certain way and people don't like it."

That led Stroman to respond on Twitter with this hilarious comeback:

Instead of going back at Cora hard, Stroman made a joke out of it and made a statement about playing for Team USA instead of Team Puerto Rico in the World Baseball Classic.

Cora is very proud of his country, so maybe he was angered that Stroman didn't play for Puerto Rico in the WBC? Regardless, Stroman comes out of this looking like a genius troll, while Cora just looks salty.
