I like how that tweet’s disgusting implication that whitey is wrong, the wise “people of color” are right. Maybe they’re the ones throwing the tantrum?

The #RedSox today placed LHP David Price on the 10-day injured list with left elbow tendinitis, retroactive to May 3.

To fill Price’s spot, the club selected RHP Ryan Weber (#65) to the active major league roster from Triple-A Pawtucket. Boston’s 40-man roster is now at 40.— Boston Red Sox (@RedSox) May 6, 2019

Trump curse in full effect.

You sound like a democrat tossing around the racist charge at an entire city.

I don’t know what Price’s intent was when he retweeted that comment by the writer Buckley, but tonight he said that it deserved more attention than just his 38k followers. He thought the tweet was racist and divisive. I thought the same thing. Buckley is a big lib.

We may eventually find out if Price’s explanation is legit. However, I think it’s extremely cowardly for Cora to put his players in this situation. He should be a man and lead his team to the whitehouse.

Are any of the visitors “players who are of color” as Brit states?

Price isn’t the only one on the team to choose not to visit. He’s one of many. From their names, all seem to be minorities, perhaps all black.

Screw ‘em. If I were Trump I would disinvite the entire team. Maybe those who miss out on such an honor would let their teammates know how they screwed the pooch.

As an aside, if I’m not mistaken, Boston was the last major league team to have a black player on the roster. Not that it’s relevant to the issue, just an interesting side note.

I have had about as much as I can stand of “Major League” sports.

Maybe there will be a “people of color” day at Fenway Park to soothe the players. All those in attendance are admitted for free because of America’s nasty history and the evil person who is currently president. Then all the white liberals return to pay exorbitant ticket prices the next day. Win win for all lefties. /sarc… or is it? :-)

We have attended our LAST BoSox game :-(

And, we traveled from TX to Boston, for the games.

Not anymore.

David Price wants to get a pass for the fact that he won’t support a white president. He has no factual basis to justify his disrespect for POTUS. He dislikes him because he’s an unapologetic white man. I dislike David Price because he’s an arrogant, low IQ jackass.

The irony is completely lost on these fools on who the true haters are and what true intolerance looks like.

Okay Price, so you have your opinion or vote if you will, apparently you were outvoted. Hint: The boss has the final say, if you object, stay home, the others will appreciate that gesture, as they know you won’t be there to act as a rude jackass in person.

“Maybe there will be a “people of color” “

There are already at least two, MLB wide. Jackie Robinson day, and Negro Leagues day.

I guess he’s pissed because too many Blacks are working so they can’t go to see him play.

Price is barely scraping by on his seven year, $231 million contract

Davey Boy is a complete waste of money. He sucks as does John Henry, one of the cabal owners. The Coach sucks as well and the Sox cannot get off of home base. Sadly disappointed in Mookie, I used to like him. Business owners cannot give away Fenway seats...nobody wants to watch Loozahs!

That’s a shame. There was a time when I liked the Red Sox.

Sick of the leftist lies that Trump is a racist. Not a shred of evidence. David Price and his ilk are liars either via ignorance or arrogance. This utter disgrace will bring the bash Trump boomerang effect upon the Red Sox in ‘19. Ask LeBron about that...

There are more racists in Boston than Birmingham.
