Boston outfielder Manny Ramirez maybe DL bound with a injury similar to that of catcher Jason Varitek. Varitek has been out since August 1st and could be back in just over a week or so.
If Manny's injury is the same as Variteks and he's out until late September, Boston would probably just shut him down until next spring, assuming they don't get back into the WC hunt with his bat gone from the lineup.
In other news, Dan Shaughnessy has a column today, and knowing how he is, I am not sure if he's being sarcastic in the article or not.
