Yep, when you're a professional athlete you have to realize you're not only representing yourself but your team.
There's certain things you need to keep away from the public eye even if you feel strongly about them because it can reflect badly not only on yourself but the team. Especially when your team shows support for a subject like the Blue Jays have for the LGBTQ community.
