I'm wondering just how much good Jr. is going to do for the WS.He's not the same CF as he was years ago and his hitting has fallen off. From what I gather...
Yeah but Manny is a proven clutch player and Bay isn't. Bay has never been close to the playoffs.They should have just extended Manny and got it over with.Sure...

Ironically, no, Konerko did not use us to bump up his pay. He actually took LESS money to stay in Chicago ($60M v $65M), which speaks volumes as to how...

Bay is a great, underrated player. Dodgers gave up nothing to get Ramirez. Meanwhile, seems like Boston gave up a lot to get Bay (two prospects, and I thought...
Red Sox just wanted to get rid of Manny. I think some of the players on the team were starting to get annoyed with him so they didn't expect him to stick...
They got sick of him because his production was falling off and the Sox have been in a rough patch. They will miss Manny's bat when they play the Yanks. The...

My guess would be Sarfate should get another start. He had 5 k's in 4 innings but 3 walks as well, all of which hurt him. He's got a live arm, so who knows. ...

I wouldn't. Bay hasn't been all that good the past couple years and he's getting older. Reimold can be as good as him if he stays healthy. ... Spyoone for Bay....
I think the manager pushed to get rid of him because he was creating headaches in the clubhouse for him with his prima donna antics.Apparently one of the big...
I don't think the O's ever made a formal offer to Konerko. I thinkit was just throwing some ballpark figures at him.He was very popular in Chicago at the time...
Yeah,a lot of players saw him putting himself and his contract ahead of the team. Big no no.I had a worker like this a at one time.He was super productive but...
