In a surprising move, Trevor May, the 34-year-old relief pitcher for the Oakland Athletics, announced his retirement from Major League Baseball. However, his retirement speech didn’t end without him taking a parting shot at team owner John Fisher. May’s announcement was made in a Twitch video and he showed appreciation for his teammates and A’s staff, but he couldn’t resist addressing Fisher’s ownership. May bluntly stated, “Sell the team, dude. Let someone who actually takes pride in the things they own, own something. There’s actually people give a s— about the game. Let them do it.” This remark comes amid the controversy surrounding the team’s move to Las Vegas, with many fans blaming Fisher for the decision. (source: USA Today)
May didn’t hold back in his comments about Fisher. According to ESPN, he referred to the billionaire as “greedy f—” who’s “afraid of cameras.” May also mentioned that he had struggled with the urge to call Fisher out earlier in the season, saying, “The one thing I really struggled with this year was not eviscerating that guy.” He didn’t stop there, calling Fisher a “dork” and suggesting he take his parents’ money elsewhere. May also criticized Fisher for not acknowledging the impact of the team’s move on the employees who have dedicated years to the organization. He concluded his speech by urging Fisher to “just be better” and to show some empathy. You can watch the entire retirement speech here. (source: Yahoo Sports)
