WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — “You don't even have to open a message nowadays, you just see the first things in your suggested boxes and it says, ‘I will kill your family,’ ‘I will kill your kids,’ ” Josh Reddick said of how the past month has been for him and his teammates.
“And it's really depressing to read because it's over a game of baseball. It's not worth that kind of drastic measure.”
Reddick — whatever you think of him and his role on the 2017 Houston Astros, who broke the rules, and the 2020 Astros, who have been apologetic but unconvincingly contrite — is right.
