Deplorable hiring practices are just as bad in Major League Baseball as the NFL, writes BNightengale.
The government’s potential witnesses are seven former Angels players: Matt Harvey, Andrew Heaney, C.J. Cron, Garrett Richards, Cam Bedrosian, Blake Parker and Mike Morin. The government said that most of the players are expected to testify about their knowledge of Kay distributing oxycodone to players.
"Kay is looking at some very serious time if he’s convicted of distributing a controlled substance resulting in death. That carries a mandatory minimum sentence of 20 years. His best shot at a defense would be to say that he gave Skaggs certain pills, but not the dose that killed the pitcher. That would be consistent with what he told the Angels during their internal investigation.
What MLB and the players union aren’t talking about during their heated labor talks is the game itself, and how to fix it. It’s enough to make former minor-leaguer Kevin Gallagher, former major-leaguer Jeff Frye, and the folks at Save the Game scream.
