You're not the first person making comparsions between manny and TO. At least red sox no longer have to deal with all of his clowning around as he has been traded to LA dodgers in a three way deal that would bring in jason bay from pirates to the sox. Now that manny gets his wishes to get out of boston and into a new scenery, he will get his shit back together.

How about ken griffey moving to chicago to play with the white sox?

I'm honestly surprised it took that long for Griffey to get moved.

I read today on ESPN that the 3-way deal was all but dead. Shows how much they know (or think they know). Probably better for him in the short run to move to the National League, where he's not seen nearly as much (and thus not in the newspapers for his antics, just for his statistics). Plus the switch in coasts can't hurt either.

Statistically, Ramirez is only slightly more productive, and he's 7 years older than Bay, who can't help but be a better fielder. I think the Red Sox made out quite well.

Hell, his antics are all I really want to see from him.

Holding up a game to take a leak behid the right field wall... priceless.

Urination in the field? (Must have missed this one) Is there a youtube video of this momentous occasion?

I can't wait until he comes to the "Bank" later this month.
