Manny plays left field pretty good in Fenway,on the road is another story.
If I was building a team it would be around Manny. When all is said and done he will be one of the best right hand hitters to ever play the game
Those of you who under estimate Manny in the field...open your eyes! He plays way above average in left and is always top 1 or 2 in outfield assists.....poor outfielders do not rate that high in outfield assists. He also runs down many balls that you think are uncatchable. More often than not he makes a play in the field that is great....not often he pulls a boner! Can't think of a better left fielder can you? And a bat to boot!
The only reason he has so many assist's is no body respects his arm. They all run on him so he has many more chances. Take a Vlad G. no one even thinks to run on him so he has less assist's. I have to disagree with you he is average at best in the field, not way above average but he is good enough. But add his offense and you can live with his fielding. Don't get me wrong I like him I said he was unique not bad but he is no Yaz in the field.
yeah please don't mention boats this thread will be hijacked. Pretty similar big bats and good enough in the field. I like em both. I would rather have a great hitter than a great fielder that can't hit anyday. BTW Rice should be in the Hall.
Different story tonight!!!
6th inning and it's 17 - 1 Sox !!!
Wells pitching a 4 hitter!!!
with the game out of hand,
I expect a brawl to break out soon!!!
