Bobby Valentine needed only one word to describe his first -- and possibly only -- season as manager of the Boston Red Sox. "Miserable." Valentine's weekly radio interview with WEEI in Boston turned heated Wednesday when he defended himself against the suggestion by co-host Glenn Ordway that he has "checked out" with four weeks remaining in the season...

The Red Sox have used 55 different players at the major league level already this season, and that number will likely continue to grow as more Triple-A players make the trek up to Boston. This is not the way manager Bobby Valentine was expecting to spend his first season with the Red Sox, and the team's performance has certainly suffered from the lack of consistency. All the...

“What an embarrassing thing to say,” Valentine answered...

I have said all along that it would extremely hypocritical if the Boston Red Sox are blaming the mutiny and unrest within its players on Bobby Valentine. The front office was the one which determined the players were in need of subordination and needed a no-nonsense person in charge. The players choice to undermine Valentine is and has been unacceptable and though it’s very possible...

If there wasn't any doubt that Boston Red Sox skipper Bobby Valentine has lost touch with reality, all you need to do is listen to his interview on The Big Show with Glenn Ordway and Michael Holley on WEEI earlier this afternoon to confirm it.

8:10 p.m. ET: So how good does it feel to be coming off a win? There's lots of odd stuff still going on in Red Sox Nation, including manager Bobby Valentine's somewhat combative interview with WEEI earlier today, but winning a game and snapping the team's seven-game skid will likely do a lot to relieve some of the immediate tensions surrounding the organization. So, what...
