It seems that he was a nice guy.  Man, did he get bad press.  The article explains why.

Hat tip: Chris Lynch.

    Amazon? My copy says it was published May 2015, not sure where you're looking. Even that article says it won an award for 2015 baseball book of the year.

    Great article that. Even Bill James repeated a few of those stories. I unthinkingly bought into them. Now I repent of my ignorance and folly.
