DawgTalkers.net Forums DawgTalk Tailgate Forum Indians management and Mickey Callaway

A report in The Athletic alleges that Indians' President of Baseball Operations Chris Antonetti, GM Mike Chernoff, and Manager Terry Francona were aware of complaints by women, and one woman's husband about Pitching Coach Mickey Callaway as early as 2017. The report alleges that Callaway texted pornographic materials to the women, including nude photos of himself, and asked the women to reciprocate.

This could get ugly very quickly, including costing someone their job.

This is a really bad look for the Indians. Particularly, Antonetti, who emphatically denied any knowledge of Callaway's behavior towards women in the original report from nearly a month ago.

This is also a bad look for Francona as well, who at best, seems to have looked the other way.

I expect there to be further fallout from this news.

gross

If true, heads will roll (deservedly). There are 2 issues going on here. The act, and then the lack of accountability afforded by those in charge.

Maybe we should just fire everybody.

That would certainly be the opposite extreme of not enforcing accountability and professional conduct.

Hmmm
Did Tiger use a "Calloway" to get his strokes
Good and proper with his liaisons on the tour..
And did Mickey use his "Woods" in regards
To getting in scoring position with females?

Really good piece on Let’s Go Tribe about the situation.

From the byline:
We should all try harder to be better humans and demand those we care about to do the same

j/c...

This thing broke when Calloway was employed by the Indians, and Dolan is all like "thank you for the information"? Wow.
