Dodgers owner miffed at Manny

It is best he stay away until he can start contributing to the team on the field again. He is not getting paid as part of this suspension so he has no obligation to be anywhere until its time to play.

This is professional sports and the fan gets ripped off in the end so who really can feel sorry for the owners?????

Due Diligence. Where have you gone.

He wants to make SURE his urine is clean before going back this time.He's a disgeace to baseball.

spelling error-"disgrace"

The best thing Manny can do for the Dodgers is stay away. If I was McCourt and Torre I wouldn't want Manny rubbing off on the young players on the team.

It's just Manny being Manny. Apparently, McCourt didn't pay attention to Ramirez when he was in Boston.

And sadly thats all for me today folks. I'm off to work.

Roy, it's called responsibility. I guess from your blinders, you can't see that. Enjoy the late season team implosion.

I guess that option year looks worse and worse every day. Steroids and inflated salary aside, the Sox got the best of the Bay-Ramirez trade last year.

Is anyone really surprised by this story?

At least it isn't my team he's doing this to. Nonetheless, it's sporting drama.

He told the Los Angeles Times sports columnist T.J. Simers, "I'm not ready."


what a tool

Are you surprised by his comments? L.A knew what they were getting when they signed him. He's not grown up yet!!!

Why is anyone suprised by his childish, selfish behavior? Hello...........we all saw his hissy fit in Boston. It is unbelievable that he can`t be fired.

"WELCOME TO MANNY WORLD",,,enjoy the ride,,,,

**** all these Boston fans , all they do is talk S hit now after Manny help them win , now I know why the baseball Gods punish them for 86 years I hope now they go 90 years with out a WS

This is easily the shortest post ever written by Mr. Coltrinari. I miss the good old days when I could kick back with a sandwich and read one of his excellent posts during my lunch hour.

A month ago a friend from LA said to me "Thank you, thank you, thank you, for giving us Manny!" And I countered with you're welcome to him, he's made for Fantasyland. You'll see sooner or later that he's a two tool player, and we'd much rather have Jason Bay who is a better total player, who appears to respect and love the game. I guess it didn't take long to be "sooner." Enjoy the angst, LA!

new york is and always will be a cash cow for players,,,,,you people are ruining the game withe the outragous contracts you give,,,remember money doesn't buy everything,,,and how long do you think mr self destruct a-rods new found attitude is going to last,,,i give the o/u a generous 1 month

Manny is a disgrace to baseball as is A-Roid, but the fans have short memories, and if Manny comes back like A-Roid has, this will all go away and only show that you can screw up, and still be adored, like the stupid Yankee fans are doing to A-Roid...and in the end it is the fans who pay for the mistakes of these spoiled, weak morons. I don't follow MLB and have not since it became a business and not a sport...

Boston fans are smiling at the situation. Before this latest Manny episode we knew it was a fantasy world in L.A. We enjoyed his production in Boston at times, but he only cares about one thing, himself. He's the most selfish player of all time. Manny being Manny means the heck with anyone else but myself. It sure doesn't smell like roses any longer. Manny has insulted Boston sports fans and he's tainted all of baseball.
