Ortiz is pretty much unmovable at this point, E.

To who?

Guy from the boston globe was saying the bosox have to get him hitting or he won't be worth anything as far as trade value. Baseball is so business oriented, there is zero loyalty. It's sad.

Oriz has 10-5 status and is signed thru next season at like 11 mil. His value is in the toilet already.

 

[Xenophon]

Unless he shows he has anything left, Ortiz is going nowhere.

The fact he doesn't play the field really deminishes what value he has left, if was decent at first you might be able to dump him.

Johnnie Damon might be a roids candidate, he has 10 HRs!

Dustin Pedroia, too. I mean come oooooooooon, no WAY that little guy's an MVP without some juice!

When you're paying guys millions of dollars, loyalty doesn't cut it. Why pay a guy that kind of money if he's going to hover at or under the Mendoza line and produce 50% of what he's otherwise capable of?

LOS ANGELES -- If Ryan Church thought he was in Jerry Manuel's doghouse before, just wait.

It's only going to get worse after what happened here last night.

In a 2-2 game, Church missed third base while scoring what would have been the go-ahead run in the 11th inning, providing the most monumental of many Met blunders that set up a crushing, 3-2 loss the Dodgers later that inning.

Actually, the talk is knocking mauel for having a vedetta vs chruch and not playing him enough.

They also mentioend that Manuel was a douche when Chruch came to the dugout, giving him 'the silent' treatment.

BTW, Yankees win their 7th in a row, gayrod has homered in 4 straight, and Tex hit another HR.
