The GM shouldn’t be calling out any players so publicly. Just cut him, demote him, whatever but public shaming isn’t a good thing for the Cardinals org. We are already having trouble recruiting good players. If the org is willing to public shame a player, why should I go there?

If people were still willing to play for a ****wad like George Steinbrenner after he hired a degenerate gambler to try and ruin Dave Winfield's reputation out of spite, and after he called Hideki Irabu a fat toad, then I doubt what the GM says, which is pretty milquetoast in this instance, moves the needle much at all.
It's always about who will pay free agents the most money. Boston is an openly hostile fan base to black players and they still manage to get plenty of them as free agents because they offer more money.
