Major League Baseball issued a statement on Wednesday requiring Josh Hader to enroll in diversity and inclusion initiatives for his offensive tweets that came to light on Tuesday night. He will not be suspended. (Bob Nightengale on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

It's been a difficult 24 hours for Hader, who allowed four runs (three earned) in just 1/3 of an inning in the All-Star Game, and then had to address his offensive tweets from several years ago immediately after the game. The absence of discipline obviously helps the Brewers going forward, as Hader (1.50 ERA, 0.79 WHIP, 89 strikeouts in 48 innings) has been one of the best relievers in baseball this season.
