Ian Desmond. So confused. Made $70 mol

as an average player and plays the race card. 8 % blacks in mlb. 12 % of us population. So what’s the f...ing problem ? Is that so out of whack ? What about the nba or nfl ? So that’s ok. Maybe baseball isn’t a sport that blacks aspire to play ? He should just say “hey I’m in the 4th year of my contract with the Rockies and I’m only making $8 m which is half of what I will make in any other year, so I’m going to use Covid as an excuse not to play “. Sorry but I call bullshit on this clown.
