It was bad enough when Bobby Valentine decided to question Kevin Youkilis' dedication when he was actually a Red Sox player.
Now Valentine and has gone and stuck his foot in his mouth again regarding Youkilis.
Valentine blamed Youkilis for their poor relationship over their few months together.
"I think the comment I made early, he made a big issue about and I don't think he ever wanted to get over it."
The timing is intriguing as Youkilis is set to return to Fenway Park as a member of the Chicago White Sox on Monday.
Maybe Valentine should employ the old adage "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all". It seems all the things he has to say about Youkilis are negative and frankly Kevin is a well respected player. It can't make current Red Sox players feel especially good about their manager.
You just wonder what Valentine hopes to accomplish by saying these things ...
UPDATE at 2:51 p.m.
When asked about Valentine's comments Youkilis had this to say, ''I got nothing about any of that stuff. I'm over all the Boston thing of this year. There is a lot of great past history, but the focus is on the White Sox.''
