MLB relief pitcher Anthony Bass went viral after posting a tweet regarding what happened to him and his wife on a flight. He posted that the flight attendant had made his 22-week pregnant wife pick up food spills from the pitcher's children.
The responses were mostly mocking the pitcher who evidently didn't care enough to pick up the popcorn for his wife and instead wanted to use his status to get someone else to do the job.
Bass became an infamous figure online for the entire fiasco and has not been a popular player for Blue Jays fans. He has been one of their worst relievers this season with a -0.1 fWAR and a 7.00 ERA. This has made his online behavior less tolerable.
However, in a recent update, it appears as though Bass has deactivated his account. The relief pitcher's handle brings up no account, so it looks like he finally had enough. MLB fans are thrilled they've managed to get Bass again.
Many fans believe Bass' time with the Blue Jays is coming to an end. He's not a popular player and has been a negative contributor this season. His online presence only seems to make things worse.
After yet another meltdown out of the pen, the Blue Jays may be forced to find other options.
The Blue Jays would be in the MLB playoffs if it started today
Despite Anthony Bass' ineptitude, the Toronto Blue Jays would make the MLB postseason if it began today. The team hasn't been firing on all cylinders yet as they're just 18-12 in the ultra competitive AL East, but they'd be a Wild Card team.
Thanks to dynamic performances from Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Matt Chapman (who is playing like an MVP and the best hitter in baseball) as well as a rock-solid pitching staff, the Blue Jays have gotten off to a fine start.
Shockingly, they're only in third place, though. The Tampa Bay Rays have been the best team in the MLB and the Baltimore Orioles are stunningly 20-9.
