Major League Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred has announced he`s decided to remove Pete Rose from The League`s ineligible List, and this means he can be posthumously inducted into The Hall of Fame.

Commissioner Manfred met with President Donald Trump in April and the topic was discussed. A month earlier President Trump had written on Social Truth that he planned on signing a complete pardon of Pete Rose, who shouldn`t have been gambling on baseball, but only bet on his team winning.

The League explains that Commissioner Rob Manfred has concluded that MLB`s policy shall be that a permanent ineligibility ends upon the passing of the disciplined individual. Pete Rose, who was an all time Great Baseball Star died last year, unforgiven during his lifetime.

So sad that Pete could not have been pardoned, before he went to his grave. We are reminded about two Turkish Proverbs. They are:

”For the love of a Rose, the gardener becomes the slave of a thousand thorns.”

Yet, even more aptly: ”Man is harder than iron, stronger than stone and more fragile than a Rose.”
