Company Man

Hawk Harrelson came out of the woodwork to say this to Sam Blum in today’s The Athletic about Jerry Reinsdorf and the White Sox, “As long as Jerry’s there, there’s going to be an effort to improve.” Really? Harrelson also said, “This is the worst team that I’ve ever been around, that I’ve ever been associated with. And I’m not associated with them anymore.” OK, now tell me how to fix things. But Hawk couldn’t because that would involve speaking hard truths about at least one person he’s always bowed down to. Mercy.
