Has anyone taken a deep look at what his issue has been this year? His velo and pitch movement all looks normal, but hitters have been hitting him all over the ballpark all season. Shoulder issue messing with his command in the zone?
If it is as bad as the rumours, wouldn't multiple years of jail be on the table? I'd expect someone to be jailed for a significant amount of time if they punched their spouse a few times then threw her down a flight of stairs, but I have no idea what the precedent is.
Anybody selling a starter? I could move some combination of the following for one:
J.P. Crawford
Tyler Glasnow
Dennis Santana
Franklin Perez
Austin Meadows
Yadier Alvarez
James Kaprielian
Nick Williams

This was an interesting read. She's right in saying that the language of the team's release was different than what we usually see.
I don't buy into her framing this as the Blue Jays being aware of the false allegation statistics she cites - it seems far more likely that the language of the report was chosen based on the specifics of the situation.
All the evidence so far suggests that the team believes that he did do something bad.
Yes. People are quite clearly going to “gossip” about this story on a jays form. The outcome and public perception of it will remain utterly unchanged by anything posted here.
He’s not going to read this. There is literally zero harm in speculating here as the story unfolds. I don’t understand the “WE SHOULDN’T SPECULATE” high horse at all.
