Well well well, former Red Sox/general baseball player Manny Ramirez wants to play again and apparently, “is calling teams directly.” Most players have an agent for such things and I can remember when he played in Boston, he was not known for talking to the press or anyone else for that matter. Then again he was also known to be a head case.
I think the single most obvious reason for him making the phone calls himself is so he can remind the general managers, “I’m not dead,” much like in Monty Python and the Holy Grail. I just hope one of them has the wit to say, “you’ll be stone dead in a moment,” in return.
Best wishes, Manny, I used to defend your actions when you were on the Red Sox but I can’t help you now.
