Manny comes clean, finally. He's loud. He's proud. And boy, does he swing a big stick. Brokeback Mountain, anyone?



"In last the two weeks, the Red Averages maintained conversations with the Orioles de Baltimore to interchange to Ramirez by their compatriot Tiled Miguel, who also asked for a change of scene, but the business stagnated when Ramirez informed that only she would approve a change if the equipment that it taking executes two options of 20 million that it has in his contract."
A couple of things:
good job by deportes getting it right about the Sox. I never could come with the precise word that limns this historic franchise: "Average" is about right.
Also, the revelation of Manny's possible alternate gender is sure to rock New England. Manny is brave for stepping forward as MLB's first transgender player. Good luck to her! Keep your chin up, and remember there's no crying in baseball.

Sometimes I get the feeling that Manny is fickle.
