Newly approved New York Mets owner Steve Cohen says he believes his players are “entitled” to protest social injustice and other political matters as long as they give it their all when they’re “between the lines.”
Cohen addressed the issue during his introductory press conference on Tuesday where he began by saying: “Black lives do matter.”
