The Red Sox traded embattled slugger Manny Ramirez to the Dodgers late Thursday afternoon, SI.com has learned. Jason Bay is headed to Boston as part of the deal, SI.com has learned. Pittsburgh gets pitcher Craig Hansen and outfielder Brandon Moss, both from Boston, as well as third baseman Andy LaRoche and right-handed pitcher Bryan Morris from the Dodgers. The Red Sox went back-and-forth with the Marlins and Dodgers as the 4 p.m. ET deadline approached. Ramirez said earlier today, as first reported by SI.com, that he would accept a trade to any team.

HA HA... the Marlins could have had Manny and they had the nerve to ask for $2 million more in cash from the Sawks. That'll learn 'em!!

Have fun with Jeremy Hermida, fish!

The Red Sox are better off without this miserable dreadlock!!!

Things just got interesting in Dodgerland. This series with the D-backs is huge.

The real winners in this deal are the pirates they got way more than what jason bay was worth

What will be the starting lineup in the outfield for the Dodgers? I say they move A. Jones out of the lineup and Kemp or Ethier will have to play centerfield. Not much speed out there.....

so now can we release jones

Dusty,

I respectfully disagree with you. Manny's bat was huge in the Soxs line-up. I'm sure some of the Soxs fans are going to agree with you. However, deep down we know this guy is a rbi machine. He hits for average and power. He will be missed in Beantown.

The team this helps the most is the Yankees! I have never been so happy to see a player leave Bawston. Manny is a Yankee Killer. Top of the 8th, 2 on, 2 out, Yanks up by 1. Sox fans would rather Jason Bay up there than Manny? Another point, you can watch Ortiz's numbers drop now that Manny isn't protecting him anymore. Oh it's good day in New York.

WOOO HOOO!!! Yankee's are now going to win the AL EAST, BO SOX are so going down now, Big Papi should ask to go to the dodgers too, since his numbers just got alot lower and more walks in his future....

THE CLOWN is going to CLOWNVILLE. jerry

July 31, 2008  05:16 PM ET

bombers i couldnt agree more

July 31, 2008  05:16 PM ET

Joe Torre is now managing Manny...uh oh...Manny won't have any 'mental peace" in LA either...Joe don't play!!!!

July 31, 2008  05:17 PM ET

Adios Manuel..........Dont let the door hit you on the way out

July 31, 2008  05:17 PM ET

Maybe Jones becomes a #9 hitter and is in the line up for his defense only. Manny will not play every day.

AAHAHHHAHAHAHHAHHAHHAHAHAHAHA
