I think Manny enjoys his time at Fenway, and we all know that he has great success in the field and at the plate while playing in Boston. He knows every part of that left field wall and how to play the bounces. He has thrown out a lot of runners trying to get to second base because he can just turn and fire the ball wherever he wants-- a lot of the time looking like he has no idea where it will end up. He is having a little worse year this season, but when the summer gets here and it gets warmer out, the bats will heat up and Manny will be going yard over the monster 3-4 times a week. So to say Manny doesn't like playing in Boston wouldn't make sense. Yes he has had some complications with management, but he is really good friends with Ortiz, Youk, Lugo, Cora, and especially Tavarez, along with Tito and the rest of this team. He definitely has a great fan base here in Boston and I think that he has a good time. However, in all honesty, I don't see him staying here when the contract is up. He won a WS here, but now that he has a ring, he will most likely go for the money. He has made a ton already, but hey thats Manny being Manny.

As the saying goes "Manny is just being Manny". If he didn't really like playing in Boston, Ramirez would have been gone a long time ago. Ego and antics aside, Manny is a good ballplayer and seems to be a very good fit in Boston. I think he'll stay a Red Sox for a long time simply because he loves the fans and the city.

Hard to say, at least once or twice a year you will hear that he wants to go to another team. Then he says he loves Boston. I think when his contract is up he is out of Boston. He will not get the 20 mil a year by any team after that and that is why he is staying in Boston for the time being.

I think this is the first year that Manny has actually enjoyed playing in Boston. He is actually smiling, hustling, not asking to take a rest, and playing a great left field. Not sure why he has made such a turnaround, mabye maturity? Who knows. I am just happy he is acting like a professional finally.
P.S. isn't it hysterical when you see silly posts by Yankee fans saying Boston sucks and that NYY rule and will make a comeback...when their team is so pathetic...the fans are grasping...sooo grasping and look so desperate.
