MLK would be so disappointed in today’s African Americans. That’s pretty much all that most of them look at is skin color which is the opposite of what his whole agenda was. I could care less if Jaden is black , white, yellow, or red. And I’m black so don’t hit me with that “he’s a racist garbage”.

I’m sure he’s mashing that RA as often as he can on anyone that disagrees with him. He’s one of the worst offenders.
They want an echo chamber of their choosing.

He thinks bianco is a good center fielder, i already know hes an idiot

Yikes
Anyway, congratulations to Jaden on his success! This thread turned into a shite show because white liberals didn’t agree with celebrating the man without first telling everyone he’s black.

Talent = talent. It shouldn't matter what their color is. If people would quit focusing on race, then we wouldn't have the division that we have in society today. Quit dividing people by race, we're all human, and we're all on this world together. Some just pitch better than others.
Exactly, this is what Astro is trying to point out. People should not focus on the race of the athlete, but rather evaluate them based on their talent and not pigeonhole them into certain positions based on stereotypical perceptions.
But as Project pointed out, baseball has definitely been a sport for years that has done this. Therefore, it is significant (and the point of what was stated originally) that possibly baseball is moving past that point and is now evaluating a player off of their talent and not their race as evidenced
It's not that hard to understand.

Thank you. I am excited that baseball is changing it's former mindset(actually former isn't that long ago). I am a racist for pointing out this accomplishment though.

BTW I am as conservative as they come. However, I am not so narrow minded as to not see that many athletes had to overcome obstacles that have no place in the game though. Funny you think anyone who can respect the progress made is a racist and liberal. You are what is wrong with our party in 2021.

I’m not a Republican. Clowns like you killed it with your desperate attempts at appeasement because you’re a coward.
7.8% of athletes on an MLB roster are black. That’s more than half of the entire black population.
20% of ALL athletes drafted in the first round since 2012 were black.
You don’t know what you’re talking about and are just trying to look informed and progressive by parroting a false narrative.

I am comfortable as well. I don't let over sensitive adult men bother me.

I think you guys are all correct. It's good to see baseball moving past pigeon holing players because of their race.
It would be even better if that was not even a conversation piece anymore.

Project - What affect do you see covid having on the 2021 draft. There were players, like Fontenot, that got pushed into the 2021 draft that will deepen the talent. I am assuming it will be 20 rounds.
Do you think more high school players will be pushed onto campus than normal? Do you think more players drafted between rounds 10 and 20 will sign?
