Hollywood home for Manny
Former Red Sox slugger Manny Ramirez is feeling right at home among the bright stars in Los Angeles. Ramirez, who weaseled his way out of Boston through temper tantrums and management bashing, seems comfortable in his new digs. The slugger went 4-5 on Sunday with one homerun and three RBI's, helping the Dodgers top the Arizona Diamondbacks. In all Ramirez went 8-13 during the weekend stand with 5 RBI. Ramirez also had his first four-hit game since 1 June 2007, making Los Angeles fans extremely happy about their near future with Ramirez. All will be fine and good as long as Los Angeles can keep their latest prima donna star, Ramirez, happy.

So much for impartial journalism... whoever wrote this news bit sounds very bitter about the Manny/Bosox situation. Thanks Theo for getting rid of that Yankee killer

and get over it Sox fans, your new 86 year winless streaks starts in '08

We had a bit of a laugh about that. The news guy is a die hard Red Sox fan and he couldn't help himself

Go Cubs...

It's about time they win!!!!

The Sox won, and then the other Sox won...Now its time the Cubbies get theirs...Plus they have a few Dominicans so that would be cool...

Why does everybody think sox fans are bitter? we're movin' on baby! 5 of 6 and this team has been reborn since the trade. good luck to manny, but the team really needed him to go away. Oh, and by the way, its the World Series Champion Red Sox to you!

Sox fan here and am not bitter at all. I was suprised that they went as far as they did this year. Gotta face it...they are not a young team. I like the rays youth and admire them (and they even have a Navarro on their team...my last name)...but I think i am gonna root for philly. As for Manny...yeah...i miss him. But if he wasnt happy then let him go. Bay did pretty well this season. I think in general Boston has one more good year left in them if they dont start getting some younger talent. Big Pa is looking old and slow :-(

They've been pulling up young kids every year for some time now; Papelbon, Youkilis, Pedroia, Ellsbury, Lowrie, Masterson, Bucholz, Murphy et al.

Couple more on the way next year too!

next year watch out because the Orioles will overtake the Bo-Sox
