Town Hall Meeting Tonight
Manager Bobby Valentine and GM Ben Cherington will be on hand at Worcester Technical High School tonight to answer questions and discuss the 2012 Boston Red Sox. Tom Caron is hosting the event for NESN which will air the question and answer session tomorrow night.
I’ve never been to an event like this, so I’m not sure what to expect. If I get the opportunity to ask a question, I certainly will. I hope to inquire about how the Marco Scutaro trade will be evaluated if the Red Sox are unable to acquire a quality starting pitcher before the season begins or at the trade deadline. If for some reason someone beats me to the punch, I have a more philosophical question regarding how Cherington approaches free agency and trades as opposed to other GM’s, notably Ruben Amaro Jr. of the Phillies.
I’ll try to refrain from any Jay Buhner rants.
