MLB Investigating Circumstances of Manny Trade?
So far, everything has just been peachy for Manny Ramirez in Los Angeles. In 6 games, he’s hitting .565 with 4 HRs and 9 RBIs, a power spike that happened far too rare in Boston this year. And this hot start is exactly why, according to Dan Shaughnessy of the BOSTON GLOBE, the MLB is investigating the trade.
You see, Shaughnessy’s “sources” in the commissioner’s office believe that this sudden outburst by high-level play by Manny is proof positive he was only half-trying in Boston, using his poor performance as leverage to force a trade. And if that’s true, then by golly, it’s time for them to do some ol’ fashioned investigatin’!
