I don't think anyone is treating this guy as a special person and I don't understand the arguments at all. He is not someone being given a gift of making it to the pros. He made it to the Major Leagues himself. No one did him any favors. He is getting a second chance because of a fateful incident beyond his control that effectively ended his career. Guys who didn't make it to the majors don't deserve a chance like this.
Edited to add they needed permission because MLB does not allow one day contracts. If he were to sign with the team and be placed on the roster someone would need to be sent down. In this case they have permission to sign him to a one day contract and keep their 40 man roster. Last edited by packs; 09-27-2012 at 06:29 PM.
