We lost Cubano for Chapman, i don't know if we can afford to lose Bren for Manny.

 

If Viciedo plays regularly for the rest of the season (which will never happen), he'll be back.

 

By the way, what happened to kennyhatesprospects?

That's a battle that the Rays have an advantage in. We just have to hope that our assets fit their needs a little better.

Not necessarily in the Manny case, the Sox have the ability to take on more cash if JR really gets serious.

But a monetary battle?

 

The McCourts needs cash more than they need top prospects, those aren't exactly liquid assets.

 

The Rays were already burned by Burrell and you have to think Ramirez would much rather play in Chicago...although the Rays obviously have a great chance at the postseason.

 

What are Ramirez's stat lines at USCF and in Tampa?

I don't know. I haven't seen him around since the team was mired in hell about three months back.

Those are going to be dominated by the crappiness of the Rays's pitching for the better part of his time in Boston.

 

.333 average, 1.049 OPS at the Cell. .299, 1.003 OPS at the Trop.

I'd rather have Viciedo than Manny for the remainder of this season.

Can't agree with you there. Viciedo is nice but this is Manny f***ing Ramirez. Not saying I'd trade the Tank for him, but if its Manny Ramirez as your DH or Dayan Viciedo I think the answer is clearly Manny.

Ditto.

 

And what's the deal with Manny? He on the DL right now? Why the hell would we even want him so we could platoon him with Kotsay? Ugh. I'll pass.

He's on the DL right now but is expected off it in a day or two.

Manny cannot stay healthy
