I thought of you when I heard about it! My mom left me a message while I was at work to let me know what happened, so first I thought, well great, now he's in the NL - we'll have to face him some. Then I remembered he'd be in your boys' division.

I'm not aware of all that went on "inside" the club, but I guess the problems finally became too much for Boston to keep dealing with him...still, I can't imagine giving up a player like Manny.
