Bruce Levine ‏@MLBBruceLevine 40s40 seconds ago Adam Eaton said Jerry Reinsdorf will talk to the team in the next few days

Wouldn't that be something (just throwing this out there) if KW did this on his own and then leaked to the press that players went to him?

Wow, Sale calling for KW to be fired it sounds like Bob Nightengale ‏@BNightengale 4m4 minutes ago Chris Sale: The wrong guys walked out of that room, meaning teammate Adam LaRoche, and not #WhiteSox VP Ken Williams

WTF! Daryl Van Schouwen ‏@CST_soxvan 3m3 minutes ago Sale: 'We were a steam engine going ahead and kind of derailed it. There was absolutely no problem in here & [KW] kind of created a problem'

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 04:18 PM) If Eaton is the player rep, his being out in front makes a lot of sense, whether you agree with what he says or not. Time to make Latos the rep

QUOTE (iamshack @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 04:18 PM) I don't think "this" was mishandled. More like Robin has no control of his clubhouse. Reason #45465332 he should not be the manager of this team. From what's come out, the respect the team has for him is what saved a boycott

How is Reinsdorf not there today? Did he really think the issue would have died down today?

Bill Shaikin ‏@BillShaikin 17m17 minutes ago Chris Sale said Ken Williams told "bald-faced lie," variously blamed teammtes, coaches and management for change in Drake La Roche's access.

Bill Shaikin ‏@BillShaikin 8m8 minutes ago Eaton says La Roche told him he did have contractual agreement for son to be in clubhouse.

Daryl Van Schouwen ‏@CST_soxvan 2m2 minutes ago Chris Sale said players want to hear from #whitesox chairman Jerry Reinsdorf.

QUOTE (Tony @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 04:10 PM) Right or wrong, no matter if you agree with the decision by management on LaRoche, this was completely mishandled. Yeah, can't remember last time an organization had such a bad issue like this. I'm shocked Reinsdorf has been quiet.

I'm sure it's a coincidence, but Eaton's not in the lineup today

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 04:08 PM) Just took a glance at Eaton's Twitter and it seems all his tests from yesterday are gone. I didn't think he had any tweets yesterday

Dan Hayes ‏@CSNHayes 2m2 minutes ago Chris Sale said this won't affect how he plays. But he said this is a big issue affecting the team. #WhiteSox

Bob Nightengale ‏@BNightengale 34s34 seconds ago Player rep Adam Eaton said Adam LaRoche had clause in contract to allow son and players union now involved #whitesox

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 04:06 PM) To that, I 100% agree. Which creates even more issues in the clubhouse.

Next thing we'll hear is Sale saying if players had an issue, they should have addressed it and not gone to Kenny

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 04:00 PM) To what is Sale referring twhen he said they were lied to? Quick guess is KW told the clubhouse LaRoche didn't have an agreement with the club prior to signing a contract about Drake's access

Bill ShaikinVerified account ‏@BillShaikin 3m3 minutes ago Chris Sale: "This isn't us rebelling against rules. This is us rebelling against BS."

QUOTE (Black_Jack29 @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 03:56 PM) So is Sale looking to get traded now? Wouldn't shock me. Get Dombrowski on the phone

oh good lord....definitely getting worse Bob Nightengale ‏@BNightengale 11s12 seconds ago Chris Sale: We got bold faced lied to. #WhiteSox

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 04:52 PM) For all that we've heard from Eaton and Sale in the last two weeks, I don't think we head that cumulative amount from David Robertson, for example, who was brought in largely to bring a little of that Yankee swagger and veteran leadership with him...ironically, one of the same reasons LaRoche was added to that mix in the first place, along with Cabrera and Duke. It's almost like every possible move last offseason in terms of the clubhouse chemistry backfired even more "off the field" with this Drake issue and also pouting Shark/Cooper feud. Bonifacio and Beckham were busts, Duke has joined the Sale/Eaton chorus and Cabrera acted like a clown for 2-3 months after he and Eaton got off to such terrible starts. Robertson was supposedly one of the main guys that got the team to not go through with the boycott

QUOTE (TheTruth05 @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 03:42 PM) This is honestly the 2nd most annoying thing about this. You say you're the main guy and one of the bigger stories about the White Sox in years and not a peep. Unreal. Sox mgmt completely botched yesterday.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 03:41 PM) I guess I just don't understand Sale's motivation for taking a stand against KW and/or the Sox as an organization because of this debacle. LaRoche might be a good guy and his friend, but Sale has stated numerous times that he would do anything to win. Having LaRoche on the team would only hinder those chances. I guess I'm missing something, but bringing back LaRoche at this point doesn't help Sale or the Sox at all in regards to staying competitive and winning. I'm sure a lot of these guys don't like to admit when a player has lost their ability

Drake did sign a jersey for him, so I actually would have been more surprised if he didn't have it up in his locker.
