Manny Ramirez has been traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers. Ken Griffy JR has been traded to the White Sox for a minor League Pitcher (unless I got this mixed up).
A rather unglamorous trade for a player of Griffy's stature.
I'm shocked the Red Sox would part with Ramirez. Classic called to talk to me abou tthat. I'm sure it will be a hot topic for him all weekend. What does everybody here think about this?

It just proves once again that nobody is truly untouchable.

That's going to be interesting. Manny playing for Joe Torre.
How do you feel that weakens the Red Sox and how does it improve things for the Dodgers?

I always liked ManRam. He's got his own unique style, like stepping through that door in the green monster to take a leak during a game, the cell phone call, etc. Ken Griffey, well, at least he hit 600+ homers without chemical additives. I wish the Twins had made a move for him rather than letting the team they are looking up to in the standings get him. Good for the White Sox though.

I hear that Manny Ramirez has a bad attitude but he is awful good. I also realize sometimes there comes a point but it's a tough decision It must be.
