bullpen entire four happy red run solid
My role, because I'm versatile, it can change, and it still could, ... Even if I run off four more victories, I could be in the bullpen for the entire playoffs. I'm just happy to be a part of the roster of the Red Sox and be solid on this team.

Manny is a strange guy. Outward, he's happy-go-lucky. On the inside, he's got a lot of conspiracy theories going on. Obviously, Manny might be one of those guys when he's 50 years old he might be in his house with all the blinds shut and looking out and the CIA is after him. You don't know, man. You don't know what's going on his head.
