I wish I could find a decent translation, I've gotten the impression he said a lot more than that lol
Arozarena said he had a nice interaction with Raleigh's parents during the tournament before saying that Raleigh should “f*** off” and “go to hell.” “The only thing he should be thankful for is having such great parents,” Arozarena said in Spanish, via a translation from The Athletic.1

If that isn't sarcasm which I am sure it is, then Randy is out of his mind. A Latin guy said it was sarcasm.

Yeah, I think there's a lot of cultural aspects to it, again I think it's funny but I'm not sure it can be explained as sarcasm or kidding. But honestly I've spent a chunk of my career working with Latinos. And real friends, spend time outside work together, know their families. And I can bring up multiple times taking it out to the sidewalk, going toe to toe. And then the next day have the arm around your neck same as always. Lou was that way. Whether Randy was actually upset doesn't really matter, it's going to be forgotten
