Manny Should Return To Cleveland
March 1, 2009
I’m with you Manny. I wouldn’t be seen in a Dodgers hat for $25 million either.
In fact, it is time for you to do the logical thing and finish your career where it began – with Chief Wahoo on your head. Manny, fate beckons you.
Ken Griffey Jr. and Jason Giambi have returned to their first teams. It’s time for you, doing the Manny-being-Manny thing, to return home too.
And so I am officially floating an unconfirmed rumor that the “other team” that Scott Boras keeps alluding to in his one-team negotiations with the Los Angeles Dodgers is the Cleveland Indians.
It makes sense for everyone. For the owner of the team, 455 straight sellouts have got to look awfully enticing right now. For Mark Shapiro, Indians general manager, adding the greatest right-handed hitter of a generation, makes the team the favorite with, still, way less than half the Yankees’ payroll. And for Manny, he gets to be Manny again.
Best of all, for the fans of Cleveland – it means two parades in a row. Lebron and then Manny. Dare to dream.
Do it, Manny. Shock the world.
