And when healthy he performance in the field and at the plate.

Me personally I just want to enjoy the product on the field and do not need to know their dating habits, where they vacation, their politics etc.

Most of us do not really know “a lot” about most players. They do their jobs and then go home and enjoy their lives and keep out of trouble.
Not to mention that, in today's environment, if an athlete says anything remotely considered "political" half the country will hate them for it.

I'd rather a guy be honest as to who he is and what he believes, even if I disagree or don't share his view. Be genuine, and not a wind up toy repeating the same drab athlete-speak over and over.

Most of these guys have been trained since age 15 to just be dull and never actually say anything.
