Right, pardon him from what? It's not like he can get out of jail.

I felt bad for Rose because he was such a great player and obviously far better than many players in the Hall, but I also kind of respected MLB for sticking to their guns and not bending their rules because of public pressure. Especially as gambling has become so much more prevalent in later years.

It would be purely symbolic.

This country has massive problems and he's wasting time on a dead baseball player.

I don't think he's wasting time. It probably took about 5 minutes to deal with. Plus he's doing ten million things so it's not like he's not getting other things done.

My only complaint is Rose was not someone who deserves recognition. He was kind of a piece of shit.

Excited to see what this young one can do this year. Really hope he pans out.

And now for something completely puzzling the Rangers have just released Dane Dunning.

I know he isn't perfect and a pitcher that should be replaced. Just didn't think that we were in the position to do so with the state of our staff and injuries.

Why?

Just speculation as to why. Lost trust issue is what Evan Grant said that he heard. That's second hand information so take that for what's it's worth.
