I am pretty sure a half asleep Manny Ramirez can still hit better than a 100% Mark Kotsay. Makes no sense to me.

If he can pinch-hit, he can DH!

This is a complete f***ing joke. I'm sorry but it's absolutely stupid not putting our best offense on the field while our bullpen is in shambles. We're going to need every extra run to help avoid a late game meltdown.

 

Maybe I'm wrong, but I feel like Ozzie has done this same s*** in the past with other mid-season additions. He feels these players need a game to adjust to their new team. Unfortunately, that shouldn't even be up for consideration when your team has a month left in the season.

 

Also, what's the over/under on LOB for Mark Kotsay tonight? I'll go with four and a half.

No kidding.

This is part of acquiring Manny Ramirez.

 

You take the good with the bad.

 

Exactly right. This is going to be a long month for that sox clubhouse.

I'm sure that if you were in the top 10 in the world at what you do, you could get away with it.

 

Gammons on MLB right now, final thought was Manny and his belief he's going to have a positive impact.

People are underestimating how important it is to keep Manny fresh for next season. Also, no doubt in my mind Sox didn't want Manny to cut his braids. They might have publically said they did, but there's a reason they bought the wigs from the Dodgers.

sounds like manny's decision:

 

JD would be tired from a long night, and not a long day

in most fields the top 10 in the world at what they do probably work 80+ hour weeks, 52 weeks a year.

no direct flight today from la. to clev.

Oz said it was his cal not to start Manny

Who is cal?

no direct flight today from la. to clev.

 

Yes there was. There was a flight that left LAX this morning at 715 AM and would have arrived at 245 PM.

But that flight was $57 more than the Southwest flight they made him take.

And they had to use that $57 to hire the barber.

is his hair seriously going to become a story?

I know badger has backed ramirez in regards to him not playing today due to his flight.

 

All that i have to say to that, is give me a break. The very least someone can do for $120,000 dollars per game is go up to the plate 4-5 times. What a pansy.

Amen brother.

Ozzie won't bench his mancrush Mark Kotsay for no one, not even the best HR hitter in the game.

Sarcasm?

 

And did we really buy the wig stock from the Dodgers?
