It wasn’t just one tweet. The dude has non stopped liked and promoted racism and other s*** on his Twitter profile and there is the fact he f***ing sucks at baseball. It’s not like they signed some talented pitcher with baggage to help the team. They signed a racist homophobic dude who is 32, with no upside and has a negative WAR in his career.
Dude has no place in baseball, both due to his on the field skills, and his off the field opinions. He trended on twitter all night and had to make his account private for a little bit because he got flooded by people tweeting him things like “if you hate gays so much, why did you let Jose Ramírez f*** you in the ass during pride month?”
And the fact they took the backlash, knew his history, and then used him for one game, which was essentially a forfeit is just absurd.
