Manny Ramirez signed an eight-year contract with the Boston Red Sox for $160 million
One of the greatest right-handed sluggers to wear a Sox uniform
Damar Hamlin’s The Chasing M's Foundation Community Toy Drive gofundme has raised over $3.3 million in donations.
We continue to pray for him as he remains in critical condition.
On Jan. 22, 2003, the Red Sox signed an eventually Hall of Fame icon and slugger in David Ortiz to a one-year $1.25 million after he was released by the Minnesota Twins.
“You know Dan Shaughnessy has been an asshole to everybody, so what can I tell you. It’s not a surprise for me, it’s not a surprise for y’all. Now that he didn’t vote for me, so what can I do? I mean, seriously, that’s not gonna stop anything.” - David Ortiz on WEEI

Terry Francona on Manny Ramirez:
"He's one of the most gifted hitters I've ever seen. He was almost like a savant. As a hitter, when he left the batter's box, all bets were off. Just hoping when he got to first, he made a left. But in the batter's box, man, he was light-years

Xander Bogaerts was 20 when he won his first World Series.
Rafael Devers was 21 when he won his first World Series.
Both were home grown talent. Both want to remain in Boston. Both want to win as a member of the Red Sox.
