Joe Maddon was in Hazelton this weekend for his annual fundraiser and Thanksmas. Maddon was honored by his hometown for the work he has done with the Hazelton Integration Project and for the Cubs winning The World Series.
Unfortunately, Maddon also had to respond to the comments made by Aroldis Chapman. Maddon defended the way he managed in The Series, specifically games six and seven, and the way he used Chapman in the postseason.
Chapman did not agree with the way he was used and he let the New York media know about it during a conference call to announce his record contract with the Yankees.
