Graban Canción Dedicada a Manny Ramirez
Y el autor es nada menos que Terry Cashman, autor de la famosa obra Talkin Baseball, inspirado, por supuesto, en como el dominicano se echó a los Dodgers al hombro en los dos últimos meses, para conducirlos hasta la pos-temporada.

Manny, quien no le cuesta un solo centavo al club de Los Angeles, porque los Medias Rojas, ante la desesperación por salir de él, aceptaron pagar todos los 20 millones que ganó en la temporada, parece encaminado con su ofensiva y con la música en su honor, hacia una negociación con los Dodgers para los próximos años.
El propietario de la franquicia, Frank McCourt, comentó que si llegan hasta la Serie Mundial, inmediatamente firmará a Ramírez, por 100 millones de dólares para cuatro años, pero le pedirá que se corte la melena y se uniforme convencionalmente.
Manny, por su parte, ha dicho en el clubhouse, entre sus compañeros de equipo, que no aceptará tales imposiciones. Que seguirá con su melena y su uniforme a lo Pedro Harapos. Además, recalca que esa oferta es muy pequeña, ya que quiere contrato por 10 años y no menos de 250 millones.
La letra de la canción de Cashman para Manny Ramírez...:
Dreadlocks, base knoks, thank the Lord he left the Sox
He trade the Red for the Blue
Joe Torre what a story, gonna lead his guy to glory
Finally Got Manny on his team
Every one having fun in the California sun
Ridin´the wings of the dream
This ain´t Manny being Manny. It´s Manny being the man.
See the ball, hit the ball. There it goes, so touch´ em all
He hits it like it´s sittin´ on the tee
Playin´hard, gets the not up on Sunset Boulevard
You gotta believe what you see
This aIn´t Manny being Manny. It´s Manny being the man.
Ride this train every game. Last stop is the Hall of Fame
Listen to what I got to say
On track, can´t turn back, it´s the truth I tel ya Jack
The Dodgers are goin´ all the way.
This ain´t Manny being Manny. It´s Manny being the man!.

No importa lo que digan los demas, Manny is one of the best players, with or with out his bad behavior, lots of ppl likes him as a player, probably no as a person. I'm a Yankee fan but you know what, I'm with Joe Torre and Manny....
