Yep, the writers are all going after Ramirez, while Sandoval is getting a free pass. Where are the complaints about Sandoval's work ethic, since he is in far worse shape than Hanley? He is the one who was Instagramming during a game, and had to come out of a game because he was exhausted from running the bases.
He also can't get back on the field now, and the team doesn't miss him a bit either. He also has a giant contract.
I can only imagine what would have been written about Ramirez if he was the one posting to the internet during a game, or he was the one who was a fat tub of goo. And what is this nonsense about his "supposed injury"? He slammed into the wall in foul territory back in May, and sucked as a hitter afterwards. Also became even more tentative in the OF after that too. Why is that injury being snarkily questioned?
If one guy is a slug and needs to be dumped, why is the other guy getting no heat?
Since it's all the writers piling on Ramirez, something must have happened-- my guess is someone from the front office told them off the record that they plan to dump Hanley ASAP. So the writers can all dump on him and "predict" that he will be traded. And since he's not traveling with the team anymore, they don't even have to worry about seeing him face to face, so it's open season.
Even if everything they write about Hanley is true, the fact that they all are piling on him and just him right now, makes it seem like something happened recently.
