07:29 AM EDT on Tuesday, July 22, 2008 By SEAN McADAM Journal Sports Writer SEATTLE — Baseball’s non-waiver trading deadline is a little more than a week away, and while the Red Sox’ needs may be obvious, the solutions are not. Even as the team battles a short-term offensive slump, the expectation is that the lineup will produce, particularly with David Ortiz tentatively slated to rejoin the ...

Francona then joked, "The (expletive) jaywalking, if ...

If you have never watched a NESN Red Sox broadcast I will tell you that you are missing out on perhaps one of the most hilarious telecasts you'll ever see. I get people who email me nightly saying things like, "Remy is joking on Kevin Costner," or, "O and Rem are laughing out of control right now." The two really can't be stopped. Well thanks to NESN we have a behind the scenes look at what ...

J.J. Putz Won’t be Traded

Wed, 23 Jul 2008 22:50:00 +1900

Yahoo!’s Tim Brown lets us know that Seattle’s J.J. Putz isn’t available for trade this season. He says that the Boston Red Sox inquired but were turned down. Seattle could be holding Putz back because he is indeed a fan favorite and a face of the franchise, but perhaps they’re holding on to him because they know his value is at an all time low, though you’d ...

On the other side is the Oakland A's, dropping 8 spots to #15 after trading 2 starters.

ESPN Hearts Dustin Pedroia

Tue, 22 Jul 2008 14:50:15 +1900

ESPN has developed a serious man-crush on Dustin "Pleats" Pedroia . In a single day, the network alternately aired a puff piece montage all about him, posted an article fawning over him, and then sent Joe "Don't Call Me VORP" Morgan to talk with him about playing second base. It seems they have succumbed to his many, many charms. I'm not exactly sure what those charms might be, but if you ...

Lobel: Manny fined -- and wasn't happy about it

Fri, 18 Jul 2008 16:19:17 +1900

According to former WBZ sports director Bob Lobel, Manny Ramirez was fined a six-figure amount for his June altercation with Red Sox traveling secretary Jack McCormick -- and he wasn't happy about it.

No matter what polls say, or letters to the editor, or calls to talk shows, sports fans would rather win with reprobate felons on their team than lose with a bunch of Mohandas Gandhis. Manny Ramirez doesn't qualify as a felon, although pushing over 64-year-old Jack McCormick might have been a crime if McCormick had wanted to press charges, but the Red Sox left fielder has been at least a ...

FOX Sports on MSN - Ken Rosenthal - Aging Manny may be expendable for Red Sox

Fri, 18 Jul 2008 23:05:00 +1900

Ramirez appears to be feeling the heat as the Red Sox visit the Angels this weekend (MLB on FOX, Saturday, 3:55 p.m. ET). He was embarrassed by his disgraceful confrontation with traveling secretary Jack McCormick, and he seems worried that the Sox might not exercise his $20 million option for next season. It's mostly pointless to analyze the comments of a player who demonstrates the maturity ...
