New Poll: 81% of MLB Ready for Out Player

Just as the 2014 baseball season is about to begin,ESPN released a new poll that revealed that the majority of baseball players are ready to accept an openly gay player in Major League Baseball.

The poll comes just after New York Yankees manager Joe Girardi stated in February that the MLB would be cool with an out player.

"I think so. I think our world has adjusted to that," Girardi said. "Obviously players want players that are going to help them win championships. That’s what we want.

"You see that there’s a lot of different cultures that come together," he continued. "There’s different ethnic backgrounds, different financial backgrounds. I think players just want to win. Whoever the best players are in that clubhouse, get ’em in here." Full story here via Edge!
