Harden unhappy?

[TheFlyingBomb]

Don't know who "people in the organization" are, but I thought this was interesting:

He also claimed that, though he didn't worry about what most people say about his resume of fragility, he was and remains unhappy with "people in the organization" who doubted his resolve and accused him of not pitching through pain.

"The whole year, I had people in the organization telling me I'm fine, that I have to pitch with pain," he said, repeatedly declining to say who those people were. "I had people telling me that, and it's insulting. That's the frustrating thing. There's been some stuff that's been going on."

...

"Every (injury) I've had, I've stayed out there," he said. "I will not pull myself or take myself out, and that's what hurt me in the past. I've tried to pitch through stuff and that's where these injuries have happened, and that's why I've spent more time on the DL.

"Without a doubt, 100 percent, that's what happened, and that's something that's frustrated me, because you get people in the organization questioning your ability to pitch with pain and they have no clue who I am or what I'm about. I don't like that. That's one thing that does frustrate me, when it's people in the organization who question me. When it's coming from our organization, that definitely fires me up."

Even if Harden turns it all around and becomes dominant, I don't see him signing after his FA year, but this article kind of tells me that if he turns it around this year, he might be gone at the deadline. Assuming (big if, I know) he stays healthy, he could bring in a big haul.

What say my three fellow lurkers around here?

Well, I read similar comments at the end of the season, that he was blaming people in the organization for pressuring him to come back too quickly from injury. Wouldn't surprise me at all if Beane was one of them.
I can understand his frustration, but at the same time he should understand theirs (and ours), investing in a guy whose spent more time being injured than actually pitching.
If he comes back with a fully healthy, impressive season....as a fan, I would still assume it was temporary and be wary of signing him to a long-term deal, either way.
