I think the sox should just tell him they are trying but if they can't(and they shouldn't) reach a trade, he must play here or not be paid.
I think they are better off with Manny than without him, but if he plays like a dog, I say bench him. but what the hell do I know about baseball

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

I would keep that piece of crap right here and hold his feet to the fire.
What nobody is talking about is a massive breach of contract law suite.
The Sox have a suite going after Mankaviches baseball,I don't think they will let the 53 million owed to Manny slide by?

my chief beef with him is that he's making it difficult to get what he wants???

Slips right. Manny's under contract here and he's going to play here. They tried to trade him but the market for a $20 million a year player is gone. So he will continue to play here, be a hero to most and put up some hall of fame numbers all while getting paid huge.

It makes me sick to see the Sox trade away the future. Stick with Manny and his baggage. Sometimes the enemy you know is better than the enemy you don't.

I hear he now wants to stay here
good


now they need a shortstop and centerfeilder

I don't know why they got rid of Miribelli however ya spell his name, I know I butchered it. He was a real good asset to the team not to mention his catching for Wake which gave Variteck a break

Don't know Slip, on the news they said his agent said Manny was mis quoted and he still wants a trade if it can be done. The dude is like a cancer.
