......and that is the Red Sox and Manny are faking all this BS to confuse certain teams in the last few days before the trade deadline.
All the effort put in by the Pirates and Marlins in the Manny dealings may have been just what the doctor ordered to keep Jason Bay from becoming a member of the Rays, a player that would have vastly improved their team.
As is, the Yanks and Red Sox still have a fighting chance at catching the best team in the division.
The Yanks should send Theo and Manny a thank you card, unfortunately for them, they have no idea what is actually happening, as they have been a recipient of this "bluffing" by the Red Sox in recent years themselves and didn't even realize it.
