Look what happened with the Redsox losing the way they did, and all the scrutiny about Pedro staying in the 8th inning. I realize, the disappointment as anyone, but I cannot understand the
Firing of Grady Little over that one situation. That guy has brought more unity to a Redsox clubhouse than existed in 10 years. Come on lets face it, this team is full of characters, a FEW HIGH Maintenance characters. This guy, regardless of the disppointment of that one game, created a club house where people stuck together, and rallied around each other. Where everyone's identity and ideosynchrocies were allowed to exist as long as it did not harm the team. HE BUILT A TEAM, AND THE MORALE OF TEAMWORK.
You bring in a hard ass like a Valentine (who does know baseball very well) and you will have decension. You have to stick with this guy.
But Grady is not sue he wants to come back.
He says the same people Hugging and Kissing him 24 hours prior from the organization would not lay eyes on him the next day.
And one last comment.
What in the hell ever happened to a tough pitcher anyways. I mean PEDRO with all his antics, is not worthy enough on his owne ability to finish the game or asked to be removed. You are a damned if you do or damned if you don't manager in that situation. Pedro desearved wither to win that game or Lose it.
And he LOST it, not Grady Little
