Phillies Outfielder Max Kepler was born in Germany

But he’s a white guy who makes about ten million a year. Probably safe from Ice.

If he were born in Mexico and roofed houses for a living in our country he would be vulnerable to being whisked off to El Salvador with no due process. Because of “The Trump Administration.” Ya know, the governing body of the Land of the Free.

from a demotion, BOSSHOG.

Kepler is batting .200 with a .645 OPS in 97 games this season. Terrible at the plate.

But the offensive explosion goes to the As on this day. They've put up 16 runs against the Nats as of the 9th inning.

Sold off some very good talent before the trade deadline, especially Jhoan Duran.
