Maybe Jeff could refresh Chris' memory.
I fully support the MiLB umpires' goals and demands, but I am disappointed in their rush to use the actions of this a-hole as something caused by a replacement umpire. I don't know who is advising their PR staff, but whoever it is should be fired. The AMLU should be leading by example. |
ESPN on Baseball Tonight was covering the escapades of Young the last few years and its not a pretty site.
The Devil Rays now say they are going to get some counsel for his "anger management problem".
Trying to cover up a "bad apple" who has lots of talent but no values.
