Yeah, hes pointing at you. You know why? Because despite all the trouble he causes Boston, everyone still supports him! The latest in the Manny saga is not showing up to Spring Training on time. Reportedly, his mother had surgery or something but it hasn't been proven yet. He was set to attend a car show but backed out after it leaked into the media. But the plain and simple fact is, he produces, and thats enough for me.
Heres a little bit more about Manny: Last year he hit 35 HR and batted .321, all while missing the end of the season due to injury. Since 1998 his lowest HR total was 33, and that came in 2002 when he only played in 120 games. Over those same years hes only batted below .300 twice, and in his career he's only batted below .300 4 times, 2 of which came when he played for CLE and only played in 22 and 91 games respectivly. Basically, Manny is Mr. Consistant. He may throw in the side show, but you know he will always produce. The only thing he won't toss into the ring is SB, but thats not that big a deal.
One reason not to take him: Um...no SB? This guy is a machine. He is 34 but hasn't shown any signs of letting up. Look forward to another great season from Manny if you draft him.
One reason to take him: Manny is Manny, enough said.
