I agree, but not by his personal contract, by the union collective contract which the leftist Selig and his administration signed with the leftist players association.
It's the PC leftists who run major league baseball who are the problem and who stupidly allowed that into the collective bargaining agreement.
I'm sure that if most time baseball owners or managers or even players were in control of the game only a generation ago could have there way, there would be no paid "paternity leave."
Why are these players so dumb or uncaring that they can't even engage in planning births for the off season?
So would you rather he forced his wife to get an abortion once they found out the baby would be born during the season?
Sometimes you can’t plan things.
