Hello, when Chris Rias came out a few years back I thought it was such an amazing and powerful thing he did for baseball and gay athletes overall. Privately I was angry, jealous, and sad that I couldn’t do the something he did. That changes today. I am ready to let the world know my secret and I hope it helps other people like me.
Today, I want to come out and say that I am a woman living in a man’s body and have always felt this way. I spoke to Chris about this and my feelings about the day he came out. He told me that I should just free myself and let the world know who I am.
Starting today I would like to be called Igavea instead of Anida. Anida is my dead name and every time I hear that name when coming out of the bullpen it makes me depressed. I have spoken to GM Nicholson and just like with Rias he fully supports my decision to be the first woman player in the MLB. The Cubs organization has fully supported me as well. We will be wearing pink and baby blue pinstripes during the next three series. I am so happy to be a part of this organization.
During the preseason, I was really having a hard time with a breakup with Ernesto Guerra. I went to the front office and asked them to please trade Guerra because I couldn’t handle seeing him around the clubhouse anymore. He has known that I was a female for years and we had been dating for a couple of years. I’m very grateful that when they did trade him away they just traded him to the White Sox and I can still see him often. I love that man and I’m happy to say that we are back together. But I want Cubs nation to know that our relationship will not impact what I do on the field. Now that I am Igavea, I will dominate every time I come out of the bullpen. Thank you Cubs nation, the front office, Ernesto, and my teammates!
PS here is a cute photo of me and Ernesto 👩❤️💋👨
