Former Mets and Rangers skipper Bobby Valentine is no longer being considered for the Marlins' managerial vacancy, according to a Major League Baseball source. - Jon Heyman, SI.com
I can now breathe a huge sigh of relief. Valentine is one of my favorite Mets people of all time. It's hard enough to think of him managing a team other than the Mets, but having to watch him manage against the Mets 19 times a year was just too hard to swallow. Hopefully this story doesn't take another about-face.
