I’m not surprised and in a sense I can have an ounce of compassion for Timmy. It’s like a shot glass got spilled and most of the quervo is on the floor type of ounce.

Must be a pain in the ass dealing with two women that value money. Arrogant fool will have a reminder of his poor choices for his entire life.

Imagine the awkward conversations that’ll be happening in about 16 years.

“What happened Daddy?” 😬

Is the shot glass analogy supposed to be Anderson “accidentally” spilling an ounce of something else?

Hanser Alberto misplayed a ball so badly that it led to TA getting hurt. The Sox rushed TA back because they only had a winning record when he played.

Then everything fell apart.

I don’t understand how spouses can cheat on one another. Don’t understand infidelity and deceit in any relationship. Never have, never will.

I guess some people just have that capacity and tendency whereas some don’t.

From hard gained personal experience, those types of people usually are a product of sexual abuse… that’s the only sad part of it.

Their wreckage is a product of repeating trauma more so is it an intentional act to cause harm… though for some, primarily when they are in danger of being exposed or are faced with accepting responsibility - it can then become intentional as a defense mechanism.

Before living two decades and learning this crap, I had no clue humans had such a capacity.

I read that whole post confused if Hanser Alberto or Matt Wallner was the former Sox player I couldn’t recall.

The world is full of pro athletes who had short moments of glory and never heard of again

Players' skills deteriorate; often abruptly.

It just happened to Anderson sooner than expected.
Same with several other Sox of that era.

A rando on twitter is claiming in 2023 that Grandal and TA got into a fight after Grandal apparently announced his attentions to leave for the ASB early when he wasn't in the lineup. That's insane, Grandal was a legit cancer. You're paid to be there for every game you're healthy, not leave the team early cause you're mad you're not starting or just a lousy team mate. Imagine playing a man down because Grandal left to go fishing or something.

That said, take story with a massive grain of salt.

Wasn't just a rando on twitter. Shane Riordan was the one who initially reported it.

I find this interesting when juxtaposing this year’s team to the winning TA teams. Those TA teams only won when he was on the field. Murakami is our star now, and now that he’s out it doesn’t appear the team is in despair because of it. And I think that’s a sign that this team may be in a much healthier place than those TA teams. Can’t just rely on one guy in the sport of baseball.

TA certainly had some injury issues, but his personal life was a mess and that carried over to the field. He became less of a shadow of his formal self. Starting a flight, and then promptly getting KO'd didn't help matters.

To me it’s just that his personal life mess hit the internet, followed by the knee injury and completed with the Ramirez fight. He just wasn’t equipped to handle all of that, it removed his cool dude tough guy facade and he will never get that back
