Angels fire Mickey Callaway, placed on MLB Ineligible List through 2022

[eligrba]

Ok.....all kidding aside.....unless there is a new narrative, I can't imagine Callaway having a career after this.

What is taking the Angels so long to do something everyone expects?

Am I suppose to react to Nick Francona's response?  He offers nothing new except his own "trauma" in this ordeal.  If you have an issue with your father, man-up and either confront him or leave it alone.  Publicly airing family grievances is cowardly and says more about the person whining than the issue.

Man gets cheated on by his wife for two years... and calls the other man's employer repeatedly.

Any other revelations in this article?

My wife cheats on me for two years with a major league coach, I'm not calling the cheater's employer, I'm calling the best divorce attorney possible.  Bitch and bitch's bitch gonna need to pay for my "emotional scarring."

By consensual he must mean he was OK with it because it seems other than a couple of sluts, no one else was. This has now gone on for a month and so far no action by the league or the Angels. Jr must have a damn good lawyer.

I am disappointed that you've come to this conclusion while having no facts at your disposal to convict him.

Sounds like Terry Francona is an emotionally abusive ahole. If he didn't want his conduct made public, he should have been a decent father.

The cycle only ends when a son recognizes that being an abusive asshole is wrong, not by making it public.

Meanwhile, many of our pitchers are talking about cleaning up their mechanics.  Quintana, Cobb, Ohtani... who is working with them on this?

And in today's edition of predictable responses...Taylor agrees with king woke without a second thought.

Cuck Alert:

This husband seems to have gone to both the Indians and Mets organizations complaining about Callaway fucking his wife.

[Taylor]

Being transparent about how you've been abused by a parental figure is woke? Cool story, bros.

GTFO, lol. He was abused because he felt he was owed some information that has literally nothing to do with him?

The cycle ends by bringing abuse out into the light. The reason it continues is that people think keeping "family secrets" is more important than honesty and transparency.

Jeez, sounds like Thanksgivings and other family get-togethers are super awkward for a lot of baseball families.

So, does anyone still think Dick Pic Mick should keep his job? @Second Base?

I didn't have a problem when was airing her dirty family laundry.

I believe in due process, not bleeding hearts seeking emotional vindication for something they never experienced.

Isn't the due process what's happening now? Do you think the Angels are taking three weeks to make a rash decision?

[beatlesrule]

I don't believe right away that every man accused is guilty. Women definitely have something to gain by lying. What is taking so long though? It's been a month. The longer this goes on, the worse it means for Callaway. There has got to be evidence against him or this would have been over weeks ago. How long do the Angels go with Wise as pitching coach? I believe he will be cleared from Covid19 in a couple of days. Are the Angels really going to keep him around? When is it PC to fire him and move on? Do you think the Angels have someone else in mind or does Wise take the gig full time?

[Second Base]

And @Inside Pitch is right about this. The Angels may be screwed either way here. Not only are they losing the best pitching coach in baseball, but off the field they may be forced to fire him for PR purposes but also have a wrongful termination suit on their hands of the relationships are consensual. Not a good spot to be in.

Several women have already stated the contact was not consensual, which is the very definition of non-consensual. It's not a difficult concept to understand.

I really don't think a wrongful termination lawsuit would hold up in this case.

The investigation is occurring right now. Please brush up on your 8th grade history in order to understand due process. I believe the Angels aren't in a position to make any decisions right now until the investigation is concluded, otherwise they'd have a lawsuit on their hands.

Let the process play out. I'm sure your strong desire for termination will be satiated at some point, you just need to learn to be patient.

What do they have to gain, exactly?
