So before I launch into a 3000 word essay that says precisely nothing about the Roberto Osuna situation, I just want to say that I also condemn intimate partner violence. At no time during this essay will I be minimising what Osuna has done, firstly because I don't know what has happened (as do none of us) and secondly because any physical violence, especially violence inside intimate relationships, is wrong - and as a society we should be trying to prevent all violence from occurring.
My thoughts in a few words?? Mixed feelings, mostly. I wish the Astros could have acquired Roberto Osuna and not the domestic violence baggage that will arrive with him on a flight from Toronto.
