I've been a Manny supporter this whole time.......sorry, not on this one though....time to go, just going to be hard to replace him in that line-up...if he goes you will see others around him in the line-up suffer. It's more than just replacing Manny...Ortiz needs his protection, especially with Millar hitting behind him.

We don't need this crap going on right now.

Manny is Manny, he's is the most productive force on our offense, if he wants a day off vs. the Devil Rays, have at it, when you're the best you get fringe benifits.
He isn't the whole team though.
On the flip side - Be happy
We won yesterday,
Renteria's base running after his walk was picture perfect,
Mirabelli stole a base,
Mueller has a 9 game hitting streak,
Cora banged a homer,
Wakefield was lights out,
Schilling got a win.
Clement went home with the team
Oh yeah,
We're in 1st place.

I usually don't have a problem w/ a day off but Nixon went down w/ an injury the day before and they needed him in the line-up. Yesterday's starting Line-up was ugly....I am glad they got the win though.

I'm w/ ya on all the other points...

Good hitter for sure....great...I am not sure of that yet....certainly not Williams, Foxx, Mantle, Mays, Aaron, Carew, Jackson, Kiner, etc......as for we need him, no one is indespensible.....dump him I say....we don't need attitude problems.....look how well it turned out for Nomar. Manny should thank his lucky stars everyday that he was blessed to have the life he has. Period.
