We’ve had a daylong discussion internally at South Side Sox about how we proceed with coverage of Mike Clevinger. Dignifying an alleged child abuser and proven spouse abandoner, terrible teammate and manchild with as much as a photo going forward is inappropriate.
Today’s horrifying blooper reel of a Spring Training camp opening featured GM Rick Hahn shit-spinning domestic and child abuse as well as his own office’s sense of decorum and diligence. And then, because of course it had to get worse, Clevinger himself took to the microphone in a PR disaster screaming to happen.
Yes, on the first day of Spring Training, the White Sox asked/required/allowed alleged domestic and child abuser Mike Clevinger to speak to the fan base.
