Following Wednesday’s loss against the Giants, Jon Gray has been the subject of considerable vitriol. The comments on Twitter and in varous Purple Row posts have stemmed from the mundane (“He’s having a bad night;” “He’s unlucky.”) to the prescriptive (“He needs to spend some time in AAA.” “The Rockies should trade him for a real ace.”) to the personal (“A third overall draft pick should be better than this.” “He needs a shave and a haircut.”). These kinds of comments go with the territory of professional sports, especially when a fandom is engaged.
