heh, heh, heh, Great news doyar fans Miss Manny is bck.

[LBC student]

He isnt worth the $20 million !!they did fine w/o him for 50 games. Let's just hope he can find the male form of steroids this time :)

[Les-B-Real]

His welcome will be overstayed by July.

[Nuff Said]

Jackass would not leave twenty million behind...
This guy is a buffoon, plain and simple...it's the Dodgers who fucked up and signed his ass for far more than he is worth...
Oh well. There are plenty of empty headed fans, and women with wet panties , who would pay to see his ass play ball.......
What a joke.

[Boss]

Didn't the Dodgers play better without him ??

[Dodger Purple]

The team should just pay him his money and let him listen to the game on the radio at the beach. The Boss is right, the Dodgers play better without his post-steroid lazy bat.

All the comments above sound like people who think Ramirez is taking money out of your own pockets. Its up to each of you to support or not support the team. I didn't hear much negativity when he signed last year after having that sensational last half season after the trade. And the Dodgers paid absolutely nothing for him except a couple of tin cans from the farm. Next year Manny will be in a free-agent year. If he wants to continue to play after next year I expect him to be in top form.

[Utah Dodger]

Well, gee thanks, Manny and Scott. It's so nice to know you want to stay because "things aren't conducive to testing his free agent potential in the present market." Thanks, Scott Boras, for reducing America's game to an economic forecast.

which team is better next year, Angle or Dodger?
Angel will send Kendred, Matthew Jr, Willy, and a prespect to Jay for Holiday, Well, And a player to be name

Ramirez is only a part time once in a while hitter since he has had his drugs taken away. Now he is useless and no longer worth big money. Let's use that meoney to buy a REAL fultime player.

Obviously that 20 mil. could have been put to better use as that is a no brainer for most anyone!!! What in the world were they thinking??? Oh, I forgot, they are going through a divorce and 20 mil. is chump change to them!!! Oh what the heck, who cares about a "World Series Championship" anyway??? Apparently not the Dodgers!

Matt Kemp makes 500k a year. James Loney makes 500k a year. Manny Ramirez makes 20 million a year. Manny -- get outa town... you're a free-loader, dude...
