Blue Jays Ace Alek Manoah Rips MLB Network Analyst Over Body-Shaming Comments

You can’t tinker Alek Manoah‘s fastball on the field, and you obviously can’t tinker it off of it either … ’cause the Blue Jays ace definitely devitalized an MLB Network analyst today after the man body-shamed him on live television.

Anthony Recker, a previous MLB catcher who’s been breaking down gamers and video games for the league’s network for the previous year, made the discuss “MLB Tonight” on Wednesday … apparently having a going at Manoah’s 6-foot-6, 285-pound frame.

“Show me you’re willing to put a little more time in the gym,” Recker stated.

Manoah captured wind of the remarks a couple of hours later on — and he was plainly pissed over them.

“Hey @Anthony_Recker my job isn’t to please you,” the 26-year-old stated on his Twitter page. “You are an outsider you don’t know me or my work ethic. What I do in the gym has clearly worked check the numbers, sucks you can’t say the same for yourself.”

Recker right away attempted to backpedal on the comments, informing Manoah his remarks were gotten of context.

Manoah, however, wasn’t purchasing it … including, “Youre just like everyone else. Love to talk and then wanna say sorry when you get called out. If you wanna see how an All Star, 1st team All-MLB, and CY young finalist trains. Come meet me [at the gym].”

The right-handed weapon then shared a lot of videos of him getting after it in the weight space.

Former Blue Jays pitcher Marcus Stroman later on participated in the discussion — slamming Recker for his comments also.
