I’ve been asked a couple of times if the Red Sox will claim Manny Ramirez if he goes on waivers. I don’t think so, since their breakup was so nasty. The Red Sox appeared to have claimed Johnny Damon, however. If they take Manny, too, that would really be kicking the team back to 2004. Maybe Schilling’s available for a game!
Update: Damon is in tonight’s Tiger’s lineup.
I hadn’t noticed — I’ve only been to Dodger Stadium once this year — but apparently the team has taken down the Mannywood sign in left field, something that happened shortly after he went on the DL (again) back in July.
Pedro’s just sitting under the mango tree. . .
