Bobby Valentine may not make it through the weekend...

  • My Redsox suck to epic levels....It really is not his fault but someone will take the blame after blowing a 9-0 lead...

  • I like Bobby, not his fault the pitching staff is turrible and the entire starting outfield is on the dl.

  • Going to Fenway in June for the Braves series. I hope they right the ship before then. Valentine questioning Youkilis' commitment may ultimately be what does him in.

  • It was a Valentine's Day Massacre.

  • I'm a Sox fan and hate Bobby V. He talks just to hear himself. His conversation with Melancon should have stayed private. You don't say what he said about Youkilis to the media. The fans and city has turned on him and I don't think he finishes the year. You knew it was trouble when the new GM wasn't allowed to pick his guy. This is team president Larry luchinos manager.

    I have come here to chew bubble gum and kick ass, and I am all out of bubble gum.

  • Believe it was the 8th inning (maybe top of 9th) when the Yanks got up to 12 runs and he made a pitching change. Fenway LIT UP with boos!! I've never heard a manager get it like that from the crowd.

    You might not like Bobby but your teams pitching has been horrible, worst in MLB, and no one can seem to find any answers. Feel like people find Bobby as an easy scapegoat when this team has some serious issues going back to last season.

  • Bobby V was a terrible hire. I like the guy but he can't keep his mouth shut, and has already alienated himself from the team. Going into the series with the Yanks Redsux pitching was ranked 30th in the league and has gotten worse this series. The team is falling apart and I love it, not because I'm a Yankees fan, or the Sux players, but their fans are the abosutely most intolerable people in the world.

  • Bobby V is a jerk, when hasn't he been? Remember his stay in NY? It's never HIS fault.

    Wow, that is like a clemson fan saying the gamecockfans suck. Yankee fans have been and always will be the most arrogant, annoying fans in all sports. Face it. Both of those teams will not be in the world series, so in the big picture, who cares. Bobby V was the wrong hire and alienated the Red Sox players before the season even started. Its about Pitching, and neither team has any. Don't forget the Yankees starter lasted what 2 1/3. Then the Red Sox Pen blows it like Sept.of last year. Atleast the Sox can say they lost there number one closer in spring training.

    And that ass tipped his cap to the crowd when they booed. This team started falling apart last fall, and is a complete mess now. The chemistry sucks, and Valentine is a douche. Curt Schilling nailed it when he said Valentine might be a very smart baseball guy, but he is not the guy for this team. He was a terrible hire, and the front office wasn't totally behind him. It will be interesting to see how long he stays.

  • The whole franchise is a mess. Funny to listen to the radio up there. The ownership don't care about winning it's all a business. People are disgusted with them.

    Good point about the hat. Forgot to mention that antagonistic antic. Heard Schilling a couple of times on sportsradio in the last few days and he was definitely adamant that Valentine's not the guy for the BoSox.

    Agree. The pitchings been awful. The only hope I see is that we have 10 guys on the DL and mst should be back soon. Dice K is probably a month away and will move bard or Doubront to the pen, Rich Hill should be a week or so and is our best LH RP, Crawford soon and Ellsbury and Bailey around the break.
