Man oh Manny

What do you think of the decision to put Manny Ramirez on irrevocable waivers? Will another team -- (gulp) Yankees -- take on the $104 million remaining on his eight-year, $160 million contract? If no team claims Ramirez, will the All-Star slugger get traded?

This not a good move from bosox front office, they'r giving away a player who already prove what he can do here, to get who?, this is another big mistake fromd them.

Another curse of the bambino!

For all his talent Manny seems to have no passion for the game. I enjoy players who have want to win just as baaddly as I do.

If George grabs Manny, it makes it that much harder to sign Pettitte. This would free up money for the Sox to go pick up somebody like Vlad or Colon and would also leave us some add'l money to sign some of the guys whose contracts are up after next season. Manny's bat is the only positive in his game. Vlad can run, hit and throw. He'd be a better fit for the Sox than Manny and at a cheaper price.

I think it is a horrible move. I was impressed with the new ownership last year but next year I am starting to have no desire to go to a game.

"GREAT MOVE" $100 million dollars can sign our core "TEAM" players and more. Great Job by this organization.

He lally gags around the outfield, he lally gags around the bases - he sits at bars with the ENEMY and says he wants to be one of them...I used to love him....but it's all over now !!!! bye bye Manny

You think anyone will actually pick his guy up? I feel bad for Theo because he has to deal with this idiot and his outrageous contract. If Dan Duquette wasn't playing fantasy baseball three years ago, we wouldn't be in this mess. However, we will be incredibly lucky if anyone picks this guy up. And let's face it, the only team that has the funds to do so is the Yankees and there's no way they will pick up our scraps and allow us to free up any money to pursue other players. Plan on seeing Manny in a Sox uniform for a few more years...

I think it stinks.
