Sox Player Steps Up : Bobby Backs Down


 Daily News
Apparently this kid Clayton Mortensen just wanted a chance to impress the powers that be.  Thursday night,  Sideshow Bobby V. got him all fired up to pitch in the biggest moment of his life like he actually cared about him, then he punted him back to minor league purgatory Friday morning.  Coach-looking-out-for-his-player 101 right there.  It doesn't end either, as Mortensen went public with his disappointment with the Yankees while Valentine reversed his tone and said he just 'isn't that annoyed' with the Yanks anymore.  Really can't make this up.

It honestly puts a big shit eating grin on my face to see these headlines coming out of Red Sox Camp right now.  Bobby V. has turned the Red Sox from wanna-be Yankees to the baseball equivalent of the NY Jets in a matter of weeks. This team is picking up right where they left off and Bobby is tossing gasoline on the fire.  From KFC and beers in the clubhouse, on to snitching on those eating and drinking said KFC and beers in the clubhouse, to never publicly accepting ownership for last years failures, then diving straight into to a new coach already arguing with the GM, calling out his biggest rival and future HOF players, and then not defending people within his own organization after they come out swinging. Anyone talking about the Red Sox winning?  Nope.  I really hope this is only the start of a good public downward spiral.   Always love a good Boston meltdown.  Keep it up!
