Former Cubs Trainer Sues Team


Recommended Posts

details?

Well, the Press COnferance isnt over yet and no one is carrying it live that I know of. Basically, he his filling a wrongful terminataion lawsuit. Boresa and Bernsie have been saying all afternoon that right after he got fired that he was the guy to watch. He knows stuff that Trib Corp. probably doesnt want to get out.

George Offman reports that Crum is a wistleblower.

Crum had a 3 hour meeting with Hendry during the season saying that the head trainer at the time did not have a Illinois trainers license. He also told Hendry that Greshner (sp?) often acted unproffesionally in the trainers room and his treatment of players may have made their injuries even WORSE!

It makes sense.... especially when you look at Prior and Wood's injury problems...

Exactly. I have a feeling more will come out as time goes on. I dont think he wants to spill all his beans in his first press conference. Why give the Tribune Corp. time to prepare a defense? Spring the good stuff on them in a trial when they may not be expecting it.

Crum also said that during this meeting, he brought up 30-40 other problems that existed in the clubhouse.

 

He also added that Hendry apperently didnt care that Greshner wasnt licensed because he never acted on it.

 

Crum just added that he went to Hendry, the Stadium inspections were going on. All someone needed to do was ask for a license and the whole staff could have been shut down.

Haha, you have to love it. Crum said that he feels that the lack of licensing by the training staff almost definitely translated to worse injuries/recovery by certain players on the Cubs team.

 

Knowing they came up a few games short of the playoffs, that's gotta hurt.
