Recently, Trey Yesavage's parents have become quite popular.
We saw his family quite a bit every time he pitched. One senses that the young man is really well supported since he's been on Major League Baseball's biggest stage.

But it's not all positive.
Yesavage, on the heels of a press conference before the start of the championship series, spoke as the #2 pitcher in the rotation against Seattle. And he took the opportunity to pass on a message.
What message?
He wants people to stop writing to his family (parents, brothers, girlfriend, etc.) to attack them on social networks in connection with his own performances on the mound.

Of course, since he's pitching so well, it's easy to understand that these aren't Blue Jays fans forwarding Yesavage. It's only a short step to thinking it's coming from the Bronx.
The pitcher says he's a man, and if people have a problem with him, let them come and tell him.
If he felt it was important to use his time in front of the media to get his message out, it's because it's getting to him – and his family. And people with bad intentions know that there's nothing like going through your family to get through to an athlete.
Hopefully, this will put a stop to the comments about his family, and allow him to focus on his start in Monday's game. But it's doubtful that the people involved got the message, unfortunately.
