UPDATE: ?OK, Valentine is safe for the season:
?
October 1, though? Well. Stay tuned.
8: 27 AM: Bobby Valentine: ?The Emperor?s coming here?
Larry Lucchino:?That is correct, Commander. And, he is most displeased with your apparent lack of progress.
Bobby Valentine: We shall double our efforts.
Larry Lucchino: I hope so, Commander, for your sake. The Emperor is not as forgiving as I am.
With the team in tatters on the West Coast ? six straight losses, outscored in the six games by an astounding 54-15 ? the Boston Herald?s Michael Silverman reported Monday morning that?owner John Henry and general manager Ben Cherington have flown to Seattle, where the Sox will begin a three-game series against the Mariners today.
There have been no votes of confidence or anything like that. And there have been no real justifications for one even if there had been. It seems inevitable that Bobby Valentine is a one-and-done manager for the Red Sox, even if what has happened this year cannot be fairly laid at his feet. ?He was dropped in to an untenable position to being with in a job unsuited to his strengths.
Still, failure is failure and it?s hard to envision a situation in which Valentine is the manager for this team in 2013.
