I hope they don't want to play. I would take a forfeit for the next series and save some pitching!

[superpimp73]

Its happened before.

 

[HaloFever004]

I'm stoked for the following reasons:

1) He's gone from the AL. (Huge)
2) Great for the Dodgers
3) Great for West Coast Baseball in General. (ESPN is prob upset right now)

As much as the fake BOSOX fans are saying this is a horrible move they are completely wrong....

Here were your options Boston

Keep Manny and have a bad relationship for the rest of the year and then lose him to free agency and get NOTHING in return

Or

Trade Manny, lose the headache, start focusing on the playoff run and get a good outfielder in BAY in return....sounds like a no brainer to me...LAD got better, BOS got a good player in BAY (something they would have not got if they simply let Manny get signed in the off-season) and PITT..well Pitt just keeps getting worse and worse everyday...Poor Pirates

Also I think its worth mentioning that this was semi-smart by Boston to ship Manny way out West. Who knows with the evil empire...I could easily see someone from the AL east to have signed Manny in the offseason and then how would Pinksox fans feel...They would have to face his bat 20+ times a year...


Well done Dodgers and Boston

Dodgers waived Mannys options, he will be a free agent next year and very possible he will be a DH in NY
