Sox players trash talk each other in WBC
David Ortiz (Dominican Republic) on potentially facing Daisuke Matsuzaka (Japan) in the WBC: “I’m going to take Dice-K deep for sure.” Jason Bay (Canada) being warned by Dustin Pedroia (USA) that his team won’t be around for too long in the tourney: “Pedroia told me to pack one pair of underwear.” My prediction is that [...]
Manny Ramirez’s Boston penthouse goes on sale
Manny signed a new deal with the LA Dodgers (2yrs/45m, poor bastards) on Wednesday. That same day he decided it was finally time to cut his ties with Boston so he put his 37th-floor condo at the Ritz Carlton on the market. Manny bought the condo in 2001 for $5.8 mil, tried selling it in [...]

He made it by the slimmest of margins (about 5 votes [...]
