BREAKING NEWS: Red Sox fire Bobby Valentine
10/04/12
The Red Sox have fired manager Bobby Valentine today. Valentine went just 69-93 in his one season as manager in Boston.
Click here for the full release from the team.
A few quotes:
GM Ben Cherington: Our 2012 season was disappointing for many reasons. No single issue is the reason, and no single individual is to blame. Weve been making personnel changes since August, and we will continue to do so as we build a contending club. With an historic number of injuries, Bobby was dealt a difficult hand. He did the best he could under seriously adverse circumstances, and I am thankful to him.
President/CEO Larry Lucchino: This years won-loss record reflects a season of agony. It begs for changes, some of which have already transpired. More will come. We are determined to fix that which is broken and return the Red Sox to the level of success we have experienced over the past decade. Difficult as it is to judge a manager amid a season that had an epidemic of injuries, we feel we need to make changes. Bobby leaves the Red Sox managers office with our respect, gratitude, and affection. I have no doubt that he will continue to contribute to the game he loves so much and knows so well.
Red Sox Principal Owner John Henry: In our meeting with Bobby today, he handled everything with dignity and class, and it is deeply appreciated. Ultimately, we as owners are responsible for arming our organization with the resources " intellectual, physical, and financial " to return to the levels of competitiveness to which we aspire and to which our fans are accustomed. Our commitment to winning is unwavering. It is a commitment to this team, to this city, and to these fans who have supported us through thick and thin. We have confidence in Ben Cherington and the kind of baseball organization he is determined to build.
Bobby Valentine: I understand this decision. This year in Boston has been an incredible experience for me, but I am as disappointed in the results as are ownership and the great fans of Red Sox Nation. It was a privilege to be part of the 100 year anniversary of Fenway Park and an honor to be in uniform with such great players and coaches. My best to the organization. Im sure next year will be a turnaround year.

Report: Ortiz embarassed by Red Sox negotiations
07/05/12
Here we go again! David Ortiz, just hours after hitting his 400th HR in Oakland Wednesday, told USA Today that he was "embarassed" and "humiliated" by the way the Red Sox negotiated with him last off-season.
"If you go crazy and give contracts to whoever comes along despite not knowing how they're going to do, then you don't give me my due consideration, even though I do my thing every year, (expletive) that," Ortiz said.

The Red Sox optioned 1B/OF Lars Anderson back to Pawtucket after Tuesday's 5-3 loss to Oakland. No other move has been announced yet, but it's likely that the team will call up pitcher Aaron Cook (3-0 1.89 EA), who has an option to leave Pawtucket now that his May 1st deadline has passed. Another possibility could be 3B Will Middlebrooks if Kevin Youkilis remains unavailable to play.

04/21/12
Amazing! The Red Sox build a 9-0 lead in the 6th only to lose it and see the Yankees score 15 straight and win 15-9.
* Kevin Youkilis had to leave the game in the fourth inning after being hit with a pitch on the leg and having a tough time running the bases. Officially, it's a left quad contusion.
* Cody Ross slammed a two-run HR in the the 5th to give Boston a 9-0 lead.
* Felix Doubront shutout the Yankees on three hits until Mark Teixeira's solo HR in the 6th. Doubront gave up just the one run on four hits while striking out 7 as he left with a 9-1 lead.
* Nick Swisher (6 RBI's) slammed a grand slam in the 7th to close the gap to 9-5. Teixeira's second HR of the game, a three-run shot in the 7th (6 RBI's for Teixeira), leaves NY down just one, 9-8. Swisher's two-run double in the 8th gave NY a 10-9 edge. Teixeira's two-run double made it 12 straight unanswered NY runs.
* David Ortiz had four hits and a walk to boost his average over .400.
* Click here for full recap and box score.
* Next up: Sunday night at 8:05pm vs. Yankees with Bard vs. Sabathia

Pedroia weighs in on Youkilis/Valentine comments
04/16/12
Opinions are flying this morning on what Red Sox manager Bobby Valentine had to say about Kevin Youkilis on a Boston TV station Sunday. Here's what Valentine had to say:
"I don't think he's as physically or emotionally into the game as he has been in the past for some reason. But [on Saturday] it seemed, you know, he's seeing the ball well, got those two walks, got his on-base percentage up higher than his batting average, which is always a good thing, and he'll move on from there."
Here's what Pedroia said Monday before the Red Sox/Rays game:
"I really don't know what Bobby is trying to do. That's not the way we go about our stuff around here. He'll figure that out. The whole team is behind Youk. We have each other's backs here. Maybe that works in Japan," Pedroia said.
Youkilis said this Monday morning: "Everyone here knows I go out and play with emotion. The only time there has ever been a question is because I've been too emotional."
Valentine said Monday he had apologized to Youkilis.
