As a human being, I’m really torn on this. On one hand, what he pled guilty to is horrific and awful and if it happened to MY daughter, I don’t know what I’d do.

On the other, I do believe in rehabilitation and second chances. Does that mean, after serving his sentence, he should be able to pursue Baseball again? Or just be able to pursue a life as a productive member of society.

I don’t know.

I know that most abusers are victims of abuse and are broken in a way that makes them a danger to abuse others.

I also know that Heimlich falls into a little different category because of his age and the circumstances.

It’s a lot to wrestle with as a human being, IMO. Baseball decision is fairly easy.

I thought you were a no second chance-type guy because of the way you reacted to Tyreek’s situation. Have your thoughts on him changed too?
