Meanwhile, out in LA-LA land, Manny is hitting .379 with 8 rbi.

Manny is happy out there in the land of Fruit and Nuts......

Manny had to go......and now its time for Papi to go.....he's pretty much done.

If you look at his numbers with the Twins, and look at how they've plummeted since random testing came in, there's one conclusion that you can't escape:

Unlike Manny, "Big Papi" was totally a product of the juice, much like Sosa was.

Bingo again.
Manny, love him or hate him was a great hitter before the juice, same goes for Barry Bonds & A Rod.
Big Papi, Sosa, McGwire, products of the juice.
I think I'm like a lot of other Sox fans who are willing to throw Ortiz to the curb because of the juice, making him a fraud !

LETS GO BRANDON

I think McGwire would have been a 30-35 HR a year guy even without the juice. Pudge Rodriguez would have still been the best defensive catcher of my lifetime, too.
