October 3, 200817 yr QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Oct 2, 2008 -> 10:51 PM) Our game was bad, but this is worse. Our game was bad because of 1 pitcher. This is a total team effort at Wrigley.
October 3, 200817 yr QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Oct 3, 2008 -> 03:54 AM) So this Manny guy is pretty good Isn't it f***ing awesome to root for him? That's it...trade Quentin for Lincecum, and sign Manny.

October 3, 200817 yr I only hated Manny cause he was an indian and red sox. When he got traded to the Dodgers I told everyone he would be a star and that "Manny being Manny" would become a LA catch phrase. The guy is hilarious and supremely talented.

October 3, 200817 yr Go read the Bill Simmons novel on Manny on espn.com. Some interesting stuff on him.
October 3, 200817 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 2, 2008 -> 10:56 PM) Trade Thome, put Dye at DH, CQ in RF, Manny in LF Dodgers organization won't let go of Manny. I at least I can't imagine they would not match any offer.

October 3, 200817 yr It will be interesting to see the type of contract Manny gets this off season. The guy can absolutely rake but he is 36 and his defense (not that it matters with the way he swings the bat) is really bad and will only get worse.

I could see him getting 3 years, 70 million from the Yankees.
October 3, 200817 yr Ok, Let's Shed Contreras, Thomes and Javys salary somehow and sign Manny. I can dream right?
October 3, 200817 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 2, 2008 -> 10:00 PM) I could see him getting 3 years, 70 million from the Yankees. Yanks sign Manny, Tex, and CC after not making the playoffs this year? I wouldn't put it past them.
October 3, 200817 yr QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Oct 2, 2008 -> 11:02 PM) I can't even enjoy this like I want to. Still hurting from the loss today. I hear ya. But it could be worse, Cubs could be winning. So enjoy the moment tonight and hope for Buehrle to put the Devil Rays in their place. ( I encourage everyone to still use the name Devil Rays. ) Edited October 3, 200817 yr by rangercal
October 3, 200817 yr Best part about the Manny HR was that in case you didn't catch it, Z stared down Martin after the K to end the previous inning. Suck on it Z.
October 3, 200817 yr In theory if the Sox got rid of Thome, with OC coming off the books they might start getting in the range of Manny and could play him at DH.
