Default Re: Rays sign Manny and Damon!!!!!

With Manny in Tampa, I feel better for Boston's chances. Damon will be helpful if he can stay healthy. What we have said about Damon after he went to the evil empire is: Looks like Jesus, throws like Mary and is loyal like Judas. Good luck in this coming season.

Damon doesn't have the speed or range that he used to, and the Trop has a big center field.

Damon isn't going to play center field and hasn't in years. And there is no chance when the Rays have an Upton already playing Center. He's likely to platoon out in left.

I think there are two good low risk signings. Neither Damon or Manny got that much, should make up for the loss of Pena at least.

With Manny, they got locker-room poison at a good price, though.

Damon has played left most recently.

You're right; I was still half asleep when I posted.
