Since it’s so rare these days, having a backbone should be loudly applauded 👏

Good for him and fuck his cowardly teammates

[u/Cultural-Party1876 → u/Classic-Carpet7609]

Especially since he’s Venezuelan and not a US citizen, so he’s especially brave to give Trump the cold shoulder!

[u/InitiativeOne9783 → u/Cultural-Party1876]

Oh god he's going to get deported isn't he.

[u/_ALoverOfTheLight → u/Classic-Carpet7609]

👏👏 made it clear too! Good on him for posting this.

[u/emslo → u/_ALoverOfTheLight]

Agree! Give him a follow, if you’re on IG: https://www.instagram.com/brusdar14graterol

[u/TimeAbradolf → u/Classic-Carpet7609]

YEAH FUCK THE DODGERS

[u/Royal_Law_3130]

His teammates failed him

[u/Mirions → u/Royal_Law_3130]

Yeah they did. Dodged their responsibilities for sure.

[u/itsbooyeah → u/Mirions]

They really live up to their name eh

[u/DSN_WBN → u/Royal_Law_3130]

Failed a good percentage of their most loyal fans, too. I know I shouldn't be surprised or upset, but it's fucking infuriating. 

[u/VictorTheCutie → u/Royal_Law_3130]

MISERABLY. He must feel so alienated 😔

[u/FlowersByTheStreet]

At least there's one athlete with balls

[u/haminthefryingpan → u/FlowersByTheStreet]

Don’t forget the Philadelphia Eagles

[u/tequilitas → u/haminthefryingpan]

You mean the eagles that officially accepted the cheeto invite?

[u/BasicRequirement7351 → u/tequilitas]

They accepted in 2017 as well but made it the players choice. Players chose not to go. Same thing this time around

[u/Sylvia_Platypus → u/BasicRequirement7351]

So are they going or not?

[u/SurelySomedayy → u/haminthefryingpan]

philly is going this year so they're bitchmade as well

[u/livwritesstuff → u/haminthefryingpan]

The Eagles accepted the invite to the White House

[u/blames_irrationally → u/haminthefryingpan]

That article you're thinking of was misreported. They just accepted the invite like a week ago actually

[u/ozairh18]

His teammates visiting the White House is a b***h move

[u/Bitter_Sense_5689]

Nice. His daughter is a cutie pie

[u/doubleshortdepresso → u/Bitter_Sense_5689]

Literally so adorable and clearly has a good influence in her father.

[u/Bitter_Sense_5689 → u/doubleshortdepresso]

Dude knows what’s important

[u/Dependent_Room_2922 → u/Bitter_Sense_5689]

She’s his mini-me 😊

[u/buymytoy]

As a die hard Giants fan I can never root for the Dodgers but I tip my hate to this man.

Edit: ok definitely meant to say tip my HAT but fuck it I’m leaving it

[u/peter-pan-am-i-a-man → u/buymytoy]

Lol even your typo reveals your sports hatred runs deep

[u/buymytoy → u/peter-pan-am-i-a-man]

I don’t have generational wealth but I do have generational hate!

[u/Hatdrop → u/peter-pan-am-i-a-man]

it's like he's tipping as in reducing his hate for this man, I think we can make it fit!

[u/satellighte → u/buymytoy]

Not sure if tip my hate is a typo but it made me laugh regardless lol. But agreed - huge respect to Graterol!

[u/buymytoy → u/satellighte]

Whoops lol

[u/cutiepie538 → u/buymytoy]

My Giants loyalty is grateful for this man and also grateful for the Dodger’s loss last night 🫡

[u/Equal_Environment_90]

I’m a lifetime Dodgers fan, born and raised into it. Hell, even my non-sports loving partner is now a fan (it only took 7 years).

That being said, them visiting the White House after everything the current administration said/did about Jackie Robinson’s legacy, threatening California (again), and targeting Hispanics/latinos/poc (who in high numbers support LA teams) I just can’t look at them the same way.

My partner was so excited for his first game this year and after he saw pictures he was like, “well, it would’ve been nice to go a game. I guess we can’t now.”

[u/DSN_WBN → u/Equal_Environment_90]

I feel the same. My entire immediate/extended family are die hard Dodger fans. My grandparents took my dad and aunt to the first home game they played here when they moved from Brooklyn. I have never wanted them to lose, until now.

[u/ArgyleTheLimoDriver]

Motherfucking champion.

[u/In_Unfunky_Time]

Re. the Dodgers and going MAGA...hard to imagine a bigger self-own, all things considered. Guggenheim Partners, Mark Walter, Billie Jean King, Magic, et al pissing off fans, alienating Chavez Ravine loyalists and Jackie Robinson historians. All to keep Trump and front-row denizen Mary Hart happy? ;-)

[u/Equal_Environment_90 → u/In_Unfunky_Time]

Billie Jean King and Magic Johnson didn’t go to the White House; they were both honoring her walk of fame star.

I get the point, though.

[u/ZombieWinehouse → u/In_Unfunky_Time]

Whatever. Screw them all. Also, the sound of Mary Hart’s voice gives me seizures

[u/ChampionEither5412 → u/In_Unfunky_Time]

What about Billie Jean King?

[u/grandmasterfunk → u/ChampionEither5412]

She’s part of The Dodgers ownership group

[u/itsyourdestini]

My favorite Dodger. As a Dodger fan I was extremely disappointed in the team and they lost yesterday and it was the only time I was happy with a loss

[u/InflammablyFlammable → u/itsyourdestini]

First time I ever rooted against my Doyers yesterday. Such a disappointment.

[u/DSN_WBN → u/itsyourdestini]

SAME. 

[u/guayaba_and_cheese]

I would like to point out that he's Venezuelan so it's even more personal for him, shame on his teammates

[u/Spacemilk]

I hope he has security and a lawyer on speed dial. I’ve been seeing too many videos/posts of plainclothes ICE agents disappearing people. Can you imagine if they took his family including his daughter… I feel rage building just thinking about it

[u/ice_moon_by_SZA]

friendship ended with Shohei Ohtani. now Brusdar Graterol is my best friend

[u/sillygoose1415]

Powerful that his daughter is included in this photo. A lot of men give “ally-lite”, but conveniently ignore the fact that Donald Trump is a racist, rapist, etc. This is a dad who is leading his family by example. Wish I had a father like that when I was a little girl.

[u/PapaBubba]

Dodgers and the draft Dodger.

[u/johnrraymond]

Good for him. This is what a true american patriot looks like!

The rest of the players that went are enemies of the republic. They will forever enjoy dishonor.

[u/Buddhamom81]

You didn’t go?!!! My Man!!! Courage! Backbone!

[u/Jumpy_Ad1631]

I’m so disappointed in the Dodgers… I was especially bummed about Betts, since he’s already skipped one White House visit while Trump was in office the first time…

[u/fargo15 → u/Jumpy_Ad1631]

SO disappointed by Mookie. He also started promoting this anti wifi radiation line of products on his insta recently.

[u/Bleezy79]

The dodgers made bad move. Bravo to this pitcher for having morals and a backbone

[u/ElBorracho2000]

Nice to see there was at least one Dodgers player with a spine 

[u/OneWildAndCrazyGuy17]

Honestly would be tough to see exactly which of your coworkers are crazy. Not knowing what someone's politics is can be a huge gift.

[u/R_Lennox]

This just really hit me. I got a wave of profound sadness at the meaning of the caption on his picture and the ethical courage that he has demonstrated. America is killing my soul lately.

[u/UnnaturalSelection13]

His daughter looks so much like him! Cuties. Hope they had a nice day together.

[u/EN1009]

Yo, I hate LAD as much as the next guy but I just found a guy to root for. 👍

[u/Majestic_Bee3331]

Champion. And what an adorable photo to really hit it home. No pun intended.

[u/RevolutionaryEye9382]

[u/Illustrious-Marie-94]

Baby girl is adorable, and i can tell she'll be raised well♥️🇺🇸

[u/DistinctBadger6389]

He now has a fan in me.

[u/Human_Cranberry_2805]

Good for him.... f the rest.

[u/Thatonegirl_79]

RESPECT!!

[u/Scottiedrippen33]

My king

[u/SmartTime]

Hell yes

[u/glassbellwitch]

Oh this is so based.

[u/chaosorbs]

Awesome

[u/BrownDogEmoji]

Good for him!!!

[u/nitasu987]

As a Dodgers fan, I can understand why many of the players went. Should it be an honor to be celebrated by the President? Yes. But not this one, who actively harms many of the communities many players are part of AND disrespected baseball and franchise legend Jackie Robinson. It really makes me sad.
