Leave it to Manny to make a hasty yet eventful exit from Beantown, straight out of left field.
Also, just a week after being dealt, reports indicate that Bud Selig's office wants to investigate the trade and the circumstance surrounding Manny's move to the west coast. There is no chance of the deal being reversed, but what a sight to behold that would be.
