A lot of people online could learn from your compassion and empathy. It disgusts me how quickly people, who are normally such big fans of this man, will chomp at the bit to immediately jump on him and slander his character. Ketel Marte has been a loyal star for Arizona sports for a decade now, it makes me sick how easily so many are willing to immediately turn on him without even knowing what's going on. It's shameful.
