How did he possibly offend White, Marco, Walker, or Torrens? Has the meaning of the word offend changed without me realizing it... well maybe it has

With White... he basically said that White was sort of a sucker for taking the deal despite the MLBPA telling him not to.

With Marco... well you never want to out what happens in a clubhouse of a pro sports organization. Fans probably like that he stood up to Leake, but I'm not sure Marco wants it out there that he's the guy that has to fight those in the clubhouse who aren't all in.

With Walker... he basically said Walker was kidding himself expecting a 3-year deal and they were expecting him to come begging... again, Walker can't love that his talents are construed this way and out to the public.

Torrens... he doesn't even know how to pronounce the kid's name... imagine investing that little time into the players you work with.

Meanwhile the Mariners are walking around with their thumbs up their asses
I'm beginning to see how loyal Stanton is to Mather. I feel that a suspension may be coming on. If so, you can thrown Stanton in the boat with me as well.

It’s becoming more clear by the minute after reading all your passionate please that the whole organization should end. Force them to sell the team to a more professional group that has everyone’s interests in mind after all Seattle deserves nothing less. There isn’t any chance of another summer of love with this group of losers

Had nothing to smoke
I took a toke
This shit ain’t no joke

He explained how/why White took the deal and it made sense to me. Other players would jump on it too, he was explaining there is a different mindset, compared to Kelenic for example, that will take the guaranteed dollars over making a bet on themselves.

That part made Marco look like a badass. The only bad part was calling him boring as a pitcher, which come on, he's boring. He is to starting pitching what Mark Ruffalo is to the movie industry.

Supporting role? Hey, lookin good Mark.

Lead role? Yeesh.

Boring.

Murphy can get healthy before he worries about whether Torrens and Raleigh are the future. Make the Mariners move one of the others instead.

People say my name wrong all the time. That isn't something to be offended by.

White he just said what everyone knows. He took security in the short run over potentially more money later. Players do that all the time, it happens every year when NFL prospects leave early. That isn't offensive.

As far as Walker, he just didn't think he'd get a longer offer.

These things are so petty to say they were offensive...

I don't find those things offensive...

You asked how people could find them offensive... if they want to take it that way, which as a professional athlete who probably hold themselves in pretty high esteem, I wouldn't want my boss talking about me that way.

Who would have thought the woke cancel culture would be what came back to bite the Mariners ownership

These things are not things that the President of a ballclub should say in public
