The White Sox Threatened To Boycott If The Team Didn’t Do Something About Adam LaRoche’s Son

It’s hard to fault the Chicago White Sox for politely asking Adam LaRoche to “dial back” the frequency with which he brings his son to work, which appears to be “ALL THE TIME.” Kids and adults generally do not mix, especially when those adults are 26-year-old millionaires who lead lavish, debaucherous lifestyles. We’re sure he didn’t mean to, but LaRoche’s practice of including his 14-year-old son Drake in team activities was probably a distraction.

As it turns out, his Chicago White Sox teammates were sick of having to tiptoe around a child, as they reportedly threatened to boycott the team’s exhibition games until management didn’t do something about it.
