The Boston Red Sox and Miami Marlins went for a total overhaul this past offseason, inserting two of the biggest personalities in baseball into their dugouts. But after three weeks of baseball, the honeymoon is over.

Bobby Valentine and Ozzie Guillen are a combined 13-19 with their clubs this year. And what’s worse, they’ve already been dragged into press conferences to answer questions about off-field issues.
Guillen was suspended five games earlier this year for negative comments about Cuban President Fidel Castro.

The Marlins haven’t played well enough to erase those memories just yet. As of Wednesday, Miami is riding a three-game losing streak and are hitting a paltry .137 with five extra base hits during that span.
“We’ve got a better offense than what we are showing right now,” Guillen told the Associated Press. I hope those guys believe in themselves and I hope those guys believe in what they can do.”

Valentine hasn’t heard from the major league office, but has enough questions to answer at home. The Boston media has been all over him since he criticized Kevin Youkilis and the team was swept by the New York Yankees in a series that was supposed to celebrate Fenway Park.

He was never really a popular choice as the team’s manager to begin with and kind of fell into a heap of problems the team already had.

Still, Valentine never chose to make Daniel Bard a closer, didn’t fall on Jacoby Ellsbury’s shoulder, wasn’t around when the Sox collapsed last September, didn’t choose his stinky bullpen and didn’t get rid of Marco Scutaro. Every day the problems are mounting and if Boston doesn’t break out of their slump, Valentine might not last the year.

So when do the problems become too much? When do their clubs decide enough is enough?

Bovada’s MLB Futures Props doesn’t think much of Valentine’s chances to stick around past this year, giving -200 odds he won’t be the team’s manager on Day 1 of 2013.

Bovada likes Guillen’s chances though, setting a -300 line that he will be in uniform next year.
