Everybody Being Manny In Taiwan Sunday

Everybody Loves Manny
In celebration of his 41st birthday, Manny Ramirez's teammates on Taiwan's EDA Rhinos gave him a spacial tribute last Sunday. Everyone—fans, players, coaches, trainers—donned "MannyDreds" for the day (see pic). All of this is being done to keep Manny on the team after June 11—when he can opt out of his contract. Not surprisingly, Manny is hitting .354 and slugging .598 so far for the Rhinos. To lure him back, the team is offering hotel accommodations at $1,670 a night, and his family is  being flown in from the Dominican for a reunion next month. What else can you say?
