This is not a huge mystery. Frank White was let go because he was not a good broadcaster.

With Ryan apparently going back to radio, everyone involved with the TV broadcast has been cleared out of there. If he had been a AAA broadcaster brought up to audition for a year or two, no one would blink at his contract not being renewed, and more than a few would be happy about it. Say what you want about "well thats fine, but you dont treat a legend this way", but I mute the TV and listen to the radio. If the Royals get better, their local broadcast will start to get picked up and Fox probably doesn't want it to sound like amateur hour.

Frank White was a great player and all that, but he took this too personally and threw a fit. If he wants to stomp off to go look for someone to blame rather than recognizing that he wasn't cut out for the job, then fine, but this will have absolutely no impact on me whatsoever.
