Bobby Valentine has called Carl Crawford several times. Bobby V. has left messages on Crawford’s phone and has even texted him. In each case there was no answer or follow-up. Valentine has been trying to set up a meeting with Crawford while he is in Texas for the Winter Meetings since Crawford lives in Houston.
“I really wanted to have my voice be the first communication. But I haven’t been able to get through. I texted him, and I want to meet him if he wants to meet me before Spring Training, and that would mean leaving here, going there, leaving Boston, going there, him being somewhere where I am, something like that, where we could just do a little face to face. I think that he deserves my reaching out to him, and I’m trying to do that.”
Carl Crawford is being paid $14 million this season by the Red Sox, the least he could do is answer the phone when his boss calls. He may still be mad about some comments that were aired in the media in 2010.
Right after Crawford signed with the Red Sox I got the following email:
Hi-

Now that he is going to be a member of the Red Sox, we want fans to know where they can follow him on him social media. Below are his facebook and twitter links and any promotion you guys can do, would be greatly appreciated.

Take care,

Maybe Carl’s PR agency can help him interact with his manager and get on the same page or maybe Bobby V just needs to send Carl a tweet or hit him up on facebook.
