Did he get black balled by the MLB? I know last year he did not get many offers after leaving Bmore. Accepted a lowball 1 year deal from the Diamondbacks. Glad he can still make great money overseas, unlike NFL players who get black balled

One of my favorite players and he did great things for the Baltimore community. Issue is, the league is so analytical based, Adam’s fielding hinders him from being an everyday player. Plus, his offensive numbers has gone down. But nevertheless, he should still be in baseball

His OPS was alway low because he did not draw walks. But still he could have been player on one of the corner outfield positions and he was a great leader in the club house. His MLB numbers were on track to be compared to Tori Hunter or better. He was a little too outspoken I believe irt race in America.

Did he marry a Black woman. I came in here to be messy and bitter.

Biracial. Her father Jean Fugett from Bmore himself was a former Washington Football Cowboy player.He founded the largest black-owned and black managed business in the United States at the time. At its peak, TLC Beatrice had $2.2 billion in sales and was number 512 on Fortune magazine’s list of 1,000 largest.
