MLB?s Talks with Barstool Show the Cowardice of Both Rob Manfred and MLB Players.
Making money off of bigotry isn?t a business deal.

Right now, one of Major League Baseball?s biggest stars and reigning Cy Young winner, Trevor Bauer, is facing a hearing next week in a restraining order case and potential criminal charges for sexual assault, after a long and public history of racism, transphobia, and misogyny.

At the same time, Cleveland?s baseball team has finally adopted a new name and jettisoned its old racist moniker.

Late last year, MLB designated the Negro Leagues as a major league, elevating them and their players to the status they long deserved.

You could be forgiven for believing that Major League Baseball was finally going to begin reckoning with the racism, misogyny, and bigotry of its past and present and begin looking towards a more equitable future.

You would be forgiven for believing that. Unfortunately, you?d be wrong.
