Yeah, the AL owns the NL so that's not surprising. There might be an adjustment period, but Bay is a very good hitter and one that has put up respectable numbers in Pittsburgh for the past few years. Pittsburgh's offense has been much better this season than in recent years, but Boston is a way better team and going somewhere that provides an opportunity at a ring definitely could make Bay become even more dangerous. I'm not convinced we've seen Bay's best years just yet. I would guess he's going to hit third with Papi behind him, so let's just say I'm not too thrilled that he's going to be spending them with the Red Sox...

Gammons never said that.....I watched ESPN and NESNjust about the whole day... and rejoiced at the news of Manny being traded. Good riddance with that Yankee Killer.
