Does the first clause go with the second?

Is this sentence correct? I heard it said by a commentator.

Whatever reason it didn't work out here with Rondo, I love what Berea has brought to the table in his (Rondo's) absence.

Thank you

The part before the comma is not correct grammar, but it is typical of quick, natural, casual speech.

Could you point out the wrong thing in it?

-Whatever reason it didn't work out here with Rondo

Do you mean be/is must be used with whatever?

For whatever reason, it didn't work out here with Rondo.

That's my guess at the intention.
