MLB needs to work on the perception of racism and the precipitation of that perception <i>tout-de -suite</i> if they want to attract and keep African American fans. Otherwise, there will be less money to "triumph" over anything.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I guess the "perception" of racism and the actual existence of it are two different things, eh?
It seems pretty obvious that good black players are getting the same big contracts as anyone else. Take C.C. Sabbathia and Ryan Howard for example. If players perform, they get paid, regardless of their skin color. Good players get good money.
I agree with Rok. It seems like Hudson is just bitter about his own situation.
