The Reason C.J. Abrams Was Demoted By The Nationals Revealed

 

Many people were puzzled to find out the Washington Nationals demoted one of their bright young players without an explanation. The real reason has finally been revealed. 

The Washington Nationals demoted All-Star shortstop CJ Abrams to the minor leagues after he stayed out all night at a Chicago-area casino. It was reported that he left only hours before a Friday day game against the Chicago Cubs.

The Nationals' front office has indicated that the demotion is intended to provide Abrams with an opportunity to regain his confidence and work on his mechanics. By spending time in the minor leagues, Abrams will have the chance to refine his skills without the pressure of major league expectations.
