Imagine saying this when Trevor Bauer exists.
Of course, if you go by Buster’s silence on him, you’d be forgiven for believing that he doesn’t.
It’s impossible to think of another prospective free agent making a bigger public relations mistake then Javier Baez did today. Burned one bridge, and likely severely damaged his chances w other teams. Francisco Lindor needs to prepare an explanation for his participation, too.

If Anthony Bass' 'personal beliefs' were that 'Nazis had some good ideas actually' and he openly and proudly expressed them, would people still call that 'free speech' and think it's fine for him to remain on the Jays?

None of these guys will take any responsibility for building up the cult of Bauer to begin with AND they still refuse to just let him go away.
Whatever hold he has on them is pathetic & Bob is by far one of the worst offenders for ensuring baseball won’t ever be safe.

I think one of the hardest things to accept and understand about this pandemic is how kids sacrificed so much to keep adults safe - and now so many of those adults won’t do the same to protect those kids who are too young to be vaccinated.

I would take a strict & real lockdown for six weeks where we ramped up vaccination & actually brought numbers down to choke off the variants. I suspect I’m not alone.
But instead our government is opening more things up & making it so this will never end. It’s so frustrating.

MLB is plagued by real issues. Treatment of minor leaguers, rampant sexual harassment & abuse, exploitation of teenagers, lack of diversity at all levels - players opting out of the ASG is decidedly not one of them.
In an All-Star week that was supposed to showcase baseball's biggest stars, 14 players opted out.

People came up to me with tears in their eyes. Big strong men. Coming up to me crying saying ‘thank you Mr. Realmuto’. You should have seen how big. Big beautiful men.
Realmuto said he got "a lot of messages of support" for speaking up for his decision to not get vaccinated
"People appreciated that I spoke my mind and didn't give in to being forced to doing something I didn't want to. People can relate to that and told me they appreciated it."

This is so many layers of dumb it’s nearly impossible to plume, but possibly the dumbest part is believing that baseball owners are secretly democrats.

Please read. I'm so sick of people talking about Bauer and speculating about his 'return' like he's coming back from an injury.
This is a sick man who enjoys hurting women. Sexually, physically, emotionally through intimidation, harassment & unfounded lawsuits.
The Dodgers have until tomorrow to decide to keep or cut Trevor Bauer after an arbitrator reduced his suspension to 194 games. The hearing over his punishment was confidential, but hours before the reduction we pubbed an article full of new details...🧵

The 1993 Jays had the highest payroll in baseball and the two highest paid players. This isn’t new.
I’m sorry your billionaire owner has opted out of trying over that same 30 year period.
This is fine. Major League Baseball absolutely doesn't need a salary cap system, which always includes a floor and expanded revenue sharing. It's perfectly OK for one team to collect $1 billion worth of elite talent at will.
Is this the part that's good for the game?

One day I hope DV will matter more than a player’s performance or attitude.
Aroldis Chapman will not be on the postseason roster. He was not at the team workout on Friday and the excuse was not acceptable, per Aaron Boone. So the team has asked him to stay away. He’s in Miami.
