So Addison was put on blast tonight by his wife and her bff. Wonder what the teams stance will be if some of the statements are true.

If the allegations that he physically abused her are true, MLB will care slightly. A few games suspension maybe...

It's just his wife or whatever bitching he's cheating on her. Nothing to see here

Teams will not care when it comes to a contract. He's an absolute dog, always has been. That's why the Cubs essentially pulled a "McDonough" and talked him into marrying her after getting two girls pregnant at the same time.

The Cubs plan didn't work, but his immaturity won't hurt the Cubs much now that the already won it all.

But this may explain his struggles this year. What a turd of a person.

Yeah but her friend dropped the abuse allegations as well. Said it was in front of the kids. Sounds like Addy might be a major POS

His wife went on Instagram and talked about moving on and being free. People in the comments started bashing her. Her friend stood up and said he was a huge cheater. People kept talking shit. Her friend said that he hit his wife as well and in front of the kids.

That'd be sending mixed messages. Cubs wanted Russell to start hitting more.

I am just happy we were told that Theo only targets quality guys with great character.

It was a pretty big narrative on the score for awhile but I don't think anyone honestly gives a shit. Mikes trolling

Theo talked about it himself.

I think there is a difference between "locker room" character and "personal life" character. I mean he signed John Lackey, twice, and that dude is a fucking piece of shit

Yeah, you are wrong. Again.

Quote:
A few weeks before spring training of 2012, in the ballroom of a budget hotel in Mesa, Ariz., Theo Epstein stood before nearly every person connected with the baseball operations of the Chicago Cubs and told them how the Cubs were going to win the World Series.
Epstein devoted the first three days of the session to on-field strategy: hitting philosophy, pitching philosophy, defense, and baserunning.

But the entire last day was devoted to character. The Cubs, Epstein insisted, would acquire only players with outstanding makeup. Even Epstein realized himself how far he had evolved since he put so much faith in numbers when he began as general manager of the Red Sox. Now character did not just matter. It was essential to Epstein’s blueprint to win the World Series.
http://fortune.com/2017/03/23/theo-epst ... t-leaders/

Quote:
Building team character

Having talented individuals alone wasn't going to carry the team to success, the baseball executive says. He needed a group of people who shared the same traits. He particularly wanted to know how a player handled failure.

Scout managers were told to interview a potential player's teachers, coaches, friends, girlfriends and even ex-girlfriends. They needed to figure out how the player responded to personal and professional setbacks.
http://www.cnbc.com/2017/01/24/chicago- ... -team.html


It really casts Theo in a poor light when he says these things, and then he goes out and trades for a guy who has known domestic issues, and a guy who now allegedly has done some questionable things. I understand Theo can't be there 24/7 to stop guys from doing things, but he can't come out and say things like this anymore without sounding completely ridiculous.

I'm not even sure what info is known now. If he hit her yeah obviously he's a piece of shit. If he just cheated on her it's really nobody's business but theirs and I don't see why anyone would care

For Chapman it was.

If the Cubs spoke with Russell's "teachers, coaches, friends, girlfriends and even ex-girlfriends" like Theo said he ordered people to do, I would guess that somebody might have spoke about some event that might have raised at least one red flag on the kid.
