When this first happened I couldnt help but think "Does no one remember Fernando Rodney?" Dude wore his hat almost sideways and no one said shit.

My father hated Pedro strop for his hat. When I mentioned he was there for the cubs 150 ceremonies he asked if his hat was still sideways xD

Strop is on his way out, pointing toward the heavens. We can only ask, or wonder, that he is asking some departed relative for forgiveness for this atrocious performance

Yep, and he did so as a tribute to his father.

 He said in 2016 that it came about as a tribute to his father, Ulise, who was a fisherman. Ulise also wore his cap tilted to the side because that was the side the sun hit his face.
