Manny Deal Still Being Worked Out

Several places have the Manny deal far from a sure thing with just 4 hours to go before the deadline but I just can't see them not getting something done now. Manny burned another bridge last night and has become a huge distraction for the club. If Manny stays the fued will continue to simmer for the remainder of the season. Curt Schilling weighed in with his thoughts about Manny this morning:

"At the end of the day you're taking the field with a guy who doesn't want to play with you, doesn't want to be there, doesn't want to ... obviously effort-wise is just not there and that's disheartening and disappointing," Schilling said during his weekly appearance on Boston sports radio WEEI's Dennis and Callahan program.

Does he think it's time for Manny to go?

"Would I be the only guy in the New England area that said no if I did?" Schilling replied to the question. "I think I'm probably with the consensus. It's very obvious from anything you see or hear he doesn't want to be here."
I would now put money on a deal happening and the Sox getting Bay. Stay tuned for updates.
