On Monday, White Sox GM Rick Hahn spoke with reporters to address recent comments from former relief pitcher Keynan Middleton detailing the team’s problematic “no rules” culture, about which he spoke to ESPN’s Jesse Rogers.
Hahn called the remarks from Middleton “ironic” and cited an incident before the trade deadline in which the reliever apologized to him for his unprofessional behavior.
“Quite frankly, it’s a little bit ironic that Keynan’s the one saying this because my last conversation with him face to face was a week ago in this clubhouse where he sought me out to apologize for his unprofessional behavior—unprofessional behavior that [manager] Pedro [Grifol] had called him out on and had an individual meeting with him about, and Keynan wanted to apologize for,” Hahn said, via NBC Sports Chicago.
