bobby valentine + redsox g.m. feuding

As most of you know, I live in boston and all the media attention they get from 'national media' and all, I couldn't help but chuckle, and had to add this.

A power struggle is emerging between the Boston GM and manager, writes Globe columnist Christopher Gasper.
Boston Globe piece -- Tigers followers can deduce why new Red Sox GM Ben Cherington wanted Gene Lamont over Bobby Valentine as manager.

Power struggle may weaken Red Sox.

Based on KC's OP, looks like the Dread Sux might still do so eventually, although I think that Leyland may greatly rely upon Lamont's managerial wisdom and gameday advice, perhaps much more than we Tigers fans are aware of.

Valentine is a tool. This reminds me of pro wrestling with the smack talk

Valentine actually is a perfect manager for the Dread Sux' ink-stained-wretch scribes and boorish fans, since he mirrors their arrogance, red-headed stepchild-like tantrums and entitled attitudes so accurately.

Ha, those Samoans :lmao:

I scratched my head when the Sox traded SS Marco Scutaro. New GM Cherington has made a few questionable moves already.

It's possible Valentine may outlive Cherington in BeanTown.

The shortstop controversy is over for now with iglesias getting demoted.

Lackey should drill a hole in his side and let the sap pour out.

Alex Cora, Edgar Renteria and Miguel Tejada are available. Heck, Cherington could even give a call-out to recently retired Adam Everett....lol
