Harold Gets The Axe

Harold Reynolds, the star of Baseball Tonight has been fired by ESPN, but the reason has not been disclosed yet (nor are they required to do so). The rumor mill from Deadspin has heard through their sources that Reynolds had a long history of sexual harassment complaints from the ladies in Bristol. Others claim that he inflated the b.s. trade talk of A-rod during his slumping weekend, and lost it with the front office who were afraid of lawsuits. We'll find out soon enough. It's a shame though, because Harold and Peter Gammons were two of the best commentators on Baseball Tonight Now they're both gone (Gammons will be back eventually). If this means more of Joe Morgan, my mute button will be heavily used.
