I hate Manny and I don't trust Ned, but this wasn't a terrible gamble on paper.
But, Manny won't take the Dodgers anywhere.

The Sox got Kupchak'dŽ
Boston's paying the remainder of Manny's salary this season. Interesting. I figured the only way McCourt would Ok it is if it were "free". LaRoche for a rental. hmmm

You're probably right, although the reported hang-up in the Maddux rumors wasn't money.Quote:

Plenty of "bad guys" have rings. Manny's got 2 of them. Sheffield has a ring, etc.Quote:

Again, I'm the biggest LaRoche fan around and I'm fine with this deal.
didn't Carl Everett and AJ Pierzynski get rings a few years ago?
What a great move by the Dodgers, if they can just now get Maddux back in a trade for the rotation, look out.
With Manny is this the new lineup/batting order...
Pierre
Kemp
Ramirez
Kent
Martin
Blake
Loney
Ethier
Pretty potent batting order there.
