"Manny Baying Manny"

After two world series titles, multiple spats with team mates and management, numerous trade rumors and trying to give him away for nothing. The Boston Red Sox have finally ended their tumultuous relationship with Manny Ramirez. I am glad they made the deal. He was a cancer to the team. In return they got a quality player in Jason Bay. I would have liked to see them get another reliever by today also. Maybe a shortstop like christian Guzman from the Nationals. To bad they had to lose Branden Moss but he really didn't have a place on the team. I'm glad to see him get a chance to play like David Murphy. Craig Hanson may become a decent reliever in the national league. But he may never live to his potential so his loss isn't a terrible thing. I'm glad Michael Bowden and Kris Johnson are still in the system. Two excellent prospects. It was a fun ride Manny but you got your twisted wish of being traded. Have fun in LA LA land where you have been living all along anyway.
