Former MLB umpire Angel Hernandez took financial settlement to retire: reports
Angel Hernandez's last MLB game came on May 9, but now, there seems to be a reason why the 62-year-old had been absent for nearly three weeks before retiring.
I am opinionated (you might have guessed that) especially about people who do not respect a job well enough to give their best effort. The poster boy for my displeasure, Angel Hernandez gets paid to leave umpiring when he should have been fired years ago. But then gets his attorney to make the following statements.
"Hernandez's lawyer, Kevin Murphy, told "The Athletic" that he was "NOT kicked out." Hernandez, in formerly announcing his retirement himself, said he wants to "spend more time with my family."
We all know social media has been roasting Hernandez for the last few years so to come and say this statement is almost comical. Now he gets a check to ride on in the sunset and write a story about how to be a truly bad MLB umpire.
