Aardsma and Lugo injury updates
I could talk about Manny Ramirez slowly jogging down the line last night and helping John Lackey keep his no-hitter alive. I could talk about how the Angels just got a LOT better by acquiring Teixera while the Red Sox have done nothing. I could talk about Manny supposedly requesting to be put [...]
