SECRET MEETING

Turns out last time the Red Sox were in New York, 2/3 of the players had a secret meeting with the owner about Mr. Valentine among other things.  Now that the secret meeting has become public knowledge and things are awkward in Bean Town. 

Who am I betting on?

I'd like to give Bobby Valentine a puncher's chance but the Red Sox would have to win the world series and I don't think that's gonna happen.  They have a lot of money invested in Pedoria and Gonzales so I don't think Mr. Valentine has any leverage.  He might last the entire season, but once we go to the judge's card, he's done. 

This isn't even a good bout, which brings us to the real problem, who set this fight up?

Oh I remember.  It was the owners who hired Bobby Valentine in the first place.

I'm going to need you to show your work because I never understood the logic behind this.  Don't get me wrong, I think it was wonderful that Mr. Valentine left Sunday Night Baseball because I found him annoying, but it seemed like a bone-head idea to have him manage Boston.

I could see a hard ass like Larry Bowa but Mr. Valentine just seems like a guy who likes to be the focus of things and I don't think the Red Sox needed that type of manager.  Again, I'm a comedy writer but even I knew this wasn't a good move.  But hey, it's not my team or my millions and millions of dollars being spent.

Good luck next year Boston with Lou Pinieilla.
