Freeman was on the MLB Network and they actually asked him about Acuña's comments and he said he was just enforcing team rules. And then Harold Reynolds licked his boots and said he did the same thing in his day.

Buster Olney has a new article out today on ESPN with more details about the Aaron Judge contract talks.

I'm not sure any other Yankee has done as quick of a turnaround from beloved player to someone fans want traded than Judge between contract extension stuff and his antivaxx stance (and future unavailability in away games against what is probably the best team in the division).

I am morbidly curious about what these first series' in Toronto are going to look like, the Rangers are 100% vaxxed but I assume this has to affect at least one of the next few teams they play at home this month (A's, Red Sox, Astros, Yanks)

I thought people had moved past the "stanton is paid too much" narrative, especially with his contract looking better with time compared against how other players of his caliber are paid

I think the article where the Jackie Robinson quote comes from is worth a read: https://www.si.com/mlb/2019/04/30/tim-anderson-white-sox-speaks-out

basically it's in the context of baseball's respectability politics being drawn along racial lines, and how few black baseball players there are in the game after all this time. perhaps a clumsy way of grappling with Robinson's legacy, but Josh Donaldson is pretty much the last person in the world who should mouth off about it

just wanna say that as a person of color that has gotten the "you look like/are x" thing a lot of times in my life it is hard for me to look at the situation and give donaldson the benefit of the doubt in any respect. like, even if you think that anderson comparing himself to robinson is 100% wrongheaded in any context, how is invoking his name while performing one of the most common racial microaggressions worthy of defending? it's not a normal thing to do with friends, let alone some dude who already doesn't like you

also tim anderson literally homered while I was typing this, lol

seems like a pretty embarrassing rebuild, with their only reliable homegrown guys being nola and hoskins, with no big time prospects on the horizon. I guess buying DHs in the offseason wasn't going to fix that (even though I really wanted it to work). 4th highest payroll in baseball!

Can you imagine the frothing outrage if they let players opt out of wearing camo hats during ~Armed Service Weekend~ and some chose to?

this is such a gross, stupid double standard; players, many of which are international, have to stan the American military, but the pride caps are optional?

I guess I don't know for a fact that the camo caps aren't optional but that poo poo is hard to stomach between those and the nypd garbage
