Manny’s Start In Beantown
Posted by Steve L. on April 17th, 2006 · Comments (2)
At his current pace, to date, Manny Ramirez will bat .214 this season with zero HRs and 41 RBI.
Then again, Ramirez hit .211 with no homers and four RBI through the first 10 games of last season. Then, he hit five homers and had 12 RBI in his next 10 at-bats.
Still, how nice would it be for Yankees fans this year if Manny slumps for an extended period this season?





Ok, I have to ask, how much different would Manny’s numbers be if say, he had Johnny Damon batting leadoff?
I wouldn’t think they’d be any different. Manny’s having a slow start. It happens. I wouldn’t read too much into it, I’d figure his numbers will be in line with his career by the end of the season.
Think Jeter a couple of years ago, when he had that horrid start
