Who could replace Bass?

Previous call-ups when Adam Cimber and Zach Pop were injured included Jay Jackson and Thomas Hatch, plus Pop could be nearing a return as well. They are all on the 40-man roster already. Other 40-man roster pitchers include Hagen Danner, Zach Thompson, Trent Thornton and Yosver Zulueta, plus Mitch White, Chad Green and Hyun Jin Ryu could all be nearing a return from the IL over the next few months. In fact, White resumed his rehab assignment in Triple-A Buffalo last Saturday after just being placed on the 60-day IL on May 23rd.

Regardless of what the Blue Jays organization decides on Bass, there’s no place for bigotry, discrimination or racism in our society. In this specific situation, baseball stadiums should be places where everyone feels safe and included. Love is love, and hopefully Bass can learn from his mistakes and become a better man.
