I'd rather have Tejada any day. Manny Ramirez in my eyes is a piece of trash with no respect for the game. The whole Boston franchise just makes me sick. Not to mention that Tejada is much better defensively, and about equal with Manny offensively.

Pssh, offensively, Manny pwns Tejada hands down. Tejada hasn't hit 35 dingers in his career, while Manny's done so in 7 of the last 8 seasons. In 9 seasons, Tejada's hit over .300 just 3 times. Manny has done so 9 times in 13 seasons.
And if he were to go to Baltimore, they could always stick him at DH. I don't really know why you hate the Sox so much, unless your a Yankees fan, in which I wonder what the hell Boston has done in the past that you guys haven't...
Anyways, Manny definitely shouldn't be let go for that little, unless they really feel that they HAVE to get a shortshop and they have too many good outfielders, which in all likeliness won't happen...

I hope your joking. The Yankees have never had any problems with attitudes, and are the classiest team in history. The Sox are all dirty, hairy, unsportsmanlike, whiners I have ever seen. I'm sure it is a little bias because I am a yankee fan, but not only Yankee fans don't like the Sox organization.
EDIT: When it comes to spending the Yankees are worse, but you can't go into attitude.

The Orioles are more interested in trying to get Tejada to rescind his trade demand than to deal him.

Yeah, Sheffield is as innocent as a baby (You do Steroids!) and Karim Garcia and Jeff Nelson are little angels, too, right? |

Miggie plays defense though, Manny doesn't. Manny is getting up there in years....Tejada isn't old yet. Not to mention Manny's poor attitude.

Am I the only one who thinks the Mets are more guilty than Boston and New York with the spending and such.

As for Karim and Nelson, you think Pedro throwing down Don Zimmer is any better? Karim was a dirtbag, but Nelson didn't do anything. Either way for every one Karim you guys have a Martinez, Ortiz, Damon, Arroyo, and Millar. |

Pedro was getting CHARGED AT, and I don't know why people think he wasn't. It was better than spearing the dude and beating him up. Zimmer was wrong, Pedro was wrong, but Zimmer should of known better.
Nelson didn't do anything? HE JUMPED IN THE SOX BULLPEN AND BEAT UP A GROUNDSKEEPER! How in the HELL is that not doing anything? And Sheffield was on steroids, that's why I said it. He's probably clean now.
Arroyo hitting A-Rod? Yeah, he hits about 20 guys a year. Obviously an accident. Millar? What has he done? Damon hasn't done anything, and Ortiz hasn't either.
Please don't look like more of an idiot.

Im not saying that Ortiz, Damon, or Millar did anything I'm just saying that there whole attitude and appearance annoy me.
Not so much with Oritz. I just think I am jealous because he is amazing, but Damon is disgusting, and Millar is a loud mouth asshole.
Nelson was provoked. He wouldn't go after some guy just for the hell of it.
Pedro was chargerd at by a ninety year old man. Let the guy run into you. There was no need to grab his head and then throw him.

Yeah well obviously the guy did something bad because Nelson wouldn;t have done anythin if he did something small.
Nelson is normally a calm guy so there must have been a reason, but we will never know.

In that situation, you keep your cool. You're supposed to be on the classiest team in baseball (which in reality, the Yankees are definitely not) and you're getting paid tons of money to play baseball. YOU DON'T ATTACK GROUNDSKEEPERS.
And wasn't it Gary Sheffield who almost attacked that Red Sox fan last year? And Giambi on the roids? And A-Rods classless attempt to knock the ball out of whoever it was's hand, then crying like a little spoiled brat about it afterward when he clearly karate-chopped?
Need I go on about the not-classiest organization?

Need I go on about the not-classiest organization? The guy grabbed Sheffield as hes tryin to catch the ball, and all Sheffield did was turn around and look at him. I wouldn't call that almost attacking. Giambi was on roids and was the only one to actually admit it. A-Rod is just a moron and I have never liked him since he came to the Yankees. Back to the Nelson thing, you get paid TO PLAY BASEBALL. When you have fans, and groundskeepers antagonizing you, your eventually going to snap, and as I said before there was obviously more going on between Nelson and the groundskepper than what was releases because I doubt he would attack him just because he was talking smack and stuff. |
