原文網址: http://kuso.cc/jjS Ramirez says he's staying in Boston After spending much of the winter trying to accommodate star slugger Manny Ramirez's wish for a trade, it appears the Red Sox might now have to stop in their tracks. Ramirez, who as a 10-5 player (10 years in the Major Leagues, five with the same team) can veto any potential deal, told an ESPN Deportes reporter in Miami that he no longer wants to be traded. "There will be no trade. I'm staying in Boston, where I'm familiar with the system and where I have a lot of friends, especially David Ortiz," Ramirez told espndeportes.com, in his first quote of any kind since the 2005 season ended. .......................................... ................................................ ...."These are the best fans in the world, man," said Ramirez immediately following that game. "They want to win. I want to win, too. I'm back." Now, it appears he's back again, not that he ever left. Keeping Ramirez stationed behind Ortiz in the Boston lineup could be a big boost for a team that has undergone considerable transition this winter. Leadoff man Johnny Damon fled to the Yankees, Bill Mueller went to the Dodgers and Edgar Renteria was moved to the Braves. Ramirez, Ortiz, Jason Varitek and Trot Nixon could allow the Red Sox to have some semblance of familiarity to their everyday lineup. Though the Red Sox still have the right to explore deals involving Ramirez, the left fielder indicated to ESPN Deportes that he'd probably exercise his veto power. "I know the American League system. That's one reason I don't want to go to the National League," he said. "I also want to play for a contender, and I think with Boston, I'm assured of that." -- yaknowhatI'msayin ? --
