Manny out
WBZ’s Bob Lobel and WEEI report that Manny Ramirez is out of today’s game with a severely sore throat.
ESPN’s Peter Gammons reports he is out with a stomach bug.
Eitherway, Ramirez looks like he’s out tonight and might be gone for the weekend. Obviously, this puts a damper on the weekend series with the Yankees. Bobby Valentine types might say how important it would be to get Manny back in the dugout/clubhouse “for the team”. It is definately more important to make sure that the whole team doesn’t end up puking in the Fenway bathrooms.
