Bobby V Mutiny

According to Yahoo! Sports, a players and owners only meeting was held on July 26th and apparently Adrian Gonzalez and Dustin Pedroia led the Red Sox in explaining their dislike for Bobby Valentine. They said they don't want to play for him anymore. I can accept the fact that the postseason is a long shot and Bobby V getting fired is too, but with the right manager, I can't complain about this lineup:

CF Jacoby Ellsbury
2B Dustin Pedroia
DH David Ortiz
1B Adrian Gonzalez
RF Cody Ross
LF Carl Crawford
3B Will Middlebrooks
C Jarrod Saltalamacchia
SS Mike Aviles

I can't complain about the bench either:

Pedro Ciriaco
Ryan Lavarnway
Daniel Nava
Ryan Kalish

Bullpen is awesome:

Craig Breslow
Mark Melancon
Junichi Tazawa
Vicente Padilla
Alfredo Aceves

And you now, what? If Lester and Beckett can regain form, the pitching rotation isn't awful:

Jon Lester
Franklin Morales
Felix Doubront
Clay Buchholz
Josh Beckett


So, please, fire Bobby V and hire someone who will take nothing. The 2013 Red Sox team? I have high hopes. Extremely high hopes.
