White Sox GM hits back at Yankees’ Keynan Middleton for calling out team culture
that Middleton’s comments were “a little bit ironic” because the reliever had apologized to him last week for “unprofessional behavior” that first-year manager Pedro Grifol had called him out for.Middleton declined to comment when asked if that was accurate, but explained why he did not speak up about the cultural problem while he was with the White Sox.
“I didn’t really know how to go about it,” he said. “I wasn’t in a comfortable position. I was a minor league [signee], came up on a 45-day clause where they could send me back to Triple-A. I really wasn’t in a position where I could stand up with my back fully straight and not worry about the consequences that would fall back on me.”
