That was a type. He mean’t to say Valentine “was very depressed”.

On a serious note, it’s a shame what this ownership and backstabbing players have done to a once proud and highly respected franchise. I’ll say one thing their die hard fans don’t deserve these scumbags.

He was impressed because Lackey may have been sober, that is may have been.

“The Yankees were very impressed with the batting practice pitches John Lackey threw during the game in which he lasted an inning and a third, giving up 10 hits and 8 runs.”

That lame ass show following around the Marlins should have been following the Red Sox this year. But come to think of it, Larry would have made that production team sign a deal that they could only film the things he approved with no access to the clubhouse or his office.

It would have been a season of listening to those two bozos up in the NESN booth (both of whom SUCK beyond words…Orsillo is such a Sean McDonough poser) read statements and e-mails written by Larry and looking for that lame ass Wally costume.

The Red Sox probably couldn’t even get a reality show done the right way this year.

I really wish there was a way to record all the craziness going on with the Red Sox this year in a single video. I’d rewatch it time and again to savor the chaos. If you wrote a movie script with all this dysfunction, I doubt audiences would buy it.

He was impressed because Lackey only allowed 1 ER in 4 innings of work during the bullpen session.

That’s just stupid- throwing empty beer cans into a garbage can. Everyone knows that he threw a normal bullpen session while wearing one of those dual-guzzle beer hats with the tubes on the side.

Part of his rehab regimen has been throwing empty beer cans into a garbage can shaped like a catchers mitt. True story.

Is this the same Bobby Valentine that has expressed confidence in his starting rotation from day 1? Now he’s impressed by Lackey’s throwing session. That’s reason enough to let Valentine go.

I can’t remember the last time anyone said the words “John Lackey” and “very impressed” in the same sentence when “Coors Light” and “fried chicken” weren’t also part of the statement.

All these dramatics and schematics of the current Red Sox team has made me forget John Lackey even exists until they pan in the dugout chomping on gum nonstop. I would not be sad, nor dissappointed, if I ever saw him pitch or throw another on-field tantrum again.
