I'll be very curious to see how Major League Baseball handles this. I hope it's with the seriousness it deserves. It takes bravery to share a story like this.

 

Uh oh.

 

That woman is truly blessed that the situation ended it where it did and that she wasn't raped. Not too many women can say that. It's still a gross shame that she had to endure that.

 

Like Jeff Passan said, I hope MLB takes this seriously but I am very curious to see how they handle this because as she said in the post, she wasn't raped. If Chapman can get 30 games for being involved in a DV case then Sano is looking at something more severe than that.

 

On another note, why wasn't Addison Russell ever suspended?

What a POS. Always is about power in these situations. Rich athlete thinks because he's rich and an athlete no woman can turn him down. The ironic thing is that most of these guys pull more dime pieces in one month than most of us will in a lifetime and yet that's not enough.

 

This sounds so much like the Roethlisberger stories. I think his agent has some explaining to do as well. Sounds like his agent was the wingman for this disgusting behavior.

I hope they do a full investigation and I hope MLB takes a strong stance against this behavior.

From the way she described it almost seems like they had a clubhouse bet on who could f*** her first. The 1st base coaching hitting on her is also off putting given that it's a workplace environment for both.

Probably because the information provided was third hand and his wife never filed a police report nor would she speak to MLB investigators

Chapman had his charges dropped and still was punished by MLB

Probably more of the third hand part.

Also, fwiw, watching the documentary Ballplayer: Pelotero will provide some further background...not that going from dirt poor to the most famous “commodity” on the island is ever an acceptable excuse for entitlement.

 

Michael Ynoa is also a part of the story, as he eventually received the biggest bonus out of that Dominican signing class.

With Chapman there was a full police report after police were called to a domestic incident.

 

With Russell, there was one vague comment by a friend on an Instagram post, nothing else involving anything physical, his wife refused to cooperate. She only publicly mentioned him cheating, and Simple infidelity isn't gonna be punished by the league or half the league would be gone.

Sano the assclown

This is gonna cost Sano some big bucks.

Sano is denying it

It cost Chapman nothing.

? He was suspended 30 days, which cost him about $1.7M.

Maybe $1.7M is a lot of money to you, lol.

 

My point was that he still signed a major free agent contract, which I thought was the message from.the OP.

Yeah, that was a drop in the bucket compared to the free agent contract he signed after it.

I don't believe that she fended him off for "about 10 minutes", but if the rest of it is true, she's really lucky he didn't try any harder because that is a massive man. Really a terrifying account to visualize reading her words. Was glad to see Plouffe's response on twitter.

This is also why people don't report assaults and embarrassments.

I am guessing $1.7M is a lot of money to every single person who posts on this site.

She has stated that she trains as a boxer. My assumption is that she is likely in very good shape. When adrenaline kicks in, people can also do surprising things.

 

I don't see any reason she couldn't have fended him off for 10 minutes.

I agree.

This story is so troubling. I hope justice is served here. Horrible story. She must have been terrified and nobody came to help her either.

I didn't mean that she couldn't fend him off, I mean that is was a 10 minute long struggle. That's a LONG time to be jostling with someone. It obviously doesn't change the story/outcome, but it was likely more like 1-3 minutes and potentially exaggerating some details will lead the defense/Sano's team to say she exaggerated other things too.

I think everyone would understand that if she had a terrifying 2-3 minute fight with him, that it probably felt like an hour.

It depends on the how it ramps up to a really heavy physical encounter.
