\n

The San Francisco Giants<\/a> continue to lead the way in being, perhaps, the wokest team in all of professional sports.<\/p>\n

That’s a big title to hold, but this organization may just be the leader in the clubhouse at the moment. Bravo!<\/p>\n

Nearly two weeks after the Pride night controversy erupted<\/a> after four pitchers wrote Bible verses on their rainbow hats, the team is still <\/i>grappling with the fallout. Everyone is mad. Everyone is playing the blame game.<\/p>\n

Rob Manfred and Major League Baseball<\/a> are blaming the Giants for not properly communicating to the team that the Pride hats were optional.<\/p>\n

Sen. Josh Hawley is mad at Manfred. So much so that the Missouri senator penned a letter to Manfred over religious discrimination, and the DOJ has since launched an investigation.<\/p>\n

The left is mad. The right is mad. MLB is mad. The Giants are mad.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Buster Posey<\/a> \u2014 the longtime catcher and current president of baseball operations \u2014 has remained silent.<\/p>\n

He spoke to reporters earlier this week from the dugout, and refused to answer any non-baseball questions after opening up the session with a prepared statement. The optics weren’t great. It was odd.<\/p>\n

Apparently, it went so <\/i>poorly in the eyes of the Giants, that they yanked Posey from a scheduled radio interview on Thursday, and instead had CEO Larry Baer fill in.<\/p>\n

Naturally, the longtime San Fran exec spent nearly three minutes virtue-signaling his tail off and catering to a fanbase he claims is outraged by the events of that night:<\/p>\n

How about THAT for some serious word-salad? Kamala Harris would be proud.<\/p>\n

“This ownership group has been really involved in supporting the LGBTQ community<\/a>. It\u2019s strong and unwavering for over 30 years now,” he said before launching into a history lesson about how human rights have been a “North Star” in the organization for three decades.<\/p>\n

Seems odd to make inclusivity a north star<\/i> over … winning baseball games … but whatever. Semantics!<\/p>\n

“I know we\u2019ve heard from many fans and I know their deep feelings about the events of Pride Night this year. We know it. We\u2019ve heard. We\u2019re listening,” Baer continued. “Our park should be a place where everyone feels welcome, respected and valued. I just want to make that really clear. We take pride in being industry leaders in that effort with the LGBTQ community.”<\/p>\n

Goodness gracious. This story just won’t die! Here’s the thing …<\/p>\n

The team offered no explanation as to why Posey was pulled from the appearance. None. It certainly seemed odd, mainly because Baer filled in with a very clearly prepared statement.<\/p>\n

Could Posey not have made that same statement? Or did he perhaps not want <\/i>to make it? Perhaps the ex-big leaguer is tired of all the fake outrage over players simply writing Bible verses on a Pride hat that nobody else in the league wears.<\/p>\n

Don’t forget, the Giants and Los Angeles Dodgers<\/a> are the only two teams in Major League Baseball authorized to wear Pride emblems on their uniforms because they were “grandfathered in” when the new uniform policy was implemented in 2023.<\/p>\n

Why? I have no clue. But here we are.<\/p>\n

Anyway, it’s all a mess. The virtue-signaling. The fake outrage. The shouting about “baseball being for everyone” but then telling Christian players they can’t write scripture<\/a> on their rainbow hat.<\/p>\n

It’s all insane. It’s all exhausting.<\/p>\n

It’s also all so predictable.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
