I can't help but notice the hint of orphan crushing machine in this.

Sooooo, a week ago the Dodgers refused ICE entry to the ballpark.

Now I see they continue to keep signed a player who hasn't played for 7 years, and lets be real, likely never will again. Just so he can continue to recieve the help he needs.

Ya know.....it's real hard to paint the Dodgers in the same camp as the Yankees and the Astros as being the villains of the MLB, when they keep putting good out into the world.

Alternative headline: Orphan crushing machine temporarily paused for one man.

I'm happy for him and it's great that the Dodgers are helping him out like this, but the fact that it's necessary in the first place is fucking GROTESQUE.

Should not be necessary; anyone should be able to get the healthcare they need. But still very happy for him and lots of respect for the club.

Great country we've got.

this isn't new. read up about arsene wenger and santi cazorla at arsenal.

wenger is known to have given broad coverage to his players.

I'm so happy to read this! This will be expensive for them and they don't have to do it but they are. Thanks for sharing!

Ah, now this is the good sort of cross posting that got me banned from uplifting news.

How awful that you need to be contracted as a career athlete to receive healthcare in, what country? * Checks * Oh.. Oh, ok, that's lovely and heartwarming good news then I guess.

...if only those without an illnesss could freely give...
