Manny would like him and Thome to return to the Tribe

This is a discussion on Manny would like him and Thome to return to the Tribe within the Cleveland Indians forum; I get the sentiment and all, but the ink on his contract is still wet. The Dodgers aren't a team ...

I am sure he was asked a question and that this just didn't pop up out of no where. Sometimes the media asks a lot of dumb questions and this was one of them I am assuming. I am sure Manny would like him and Thome to return but I am positive Eric Wedge and Mark Shapiro think otherwise.

Of course, but Manny doesn't regulate what he is about ready to say where most players would hold their tongue at this stage and give the party line. Not a huge deal given the context of it, but if I was a Dodgers fan it would rub me the wrong way.

I agree, saying this while on another team would probably make me pretty angry if I was a fan of that team

I can't fault a guy for answering a question honestly even if it was an out of line question. If I were a Dodger fan, I wouldn;t be shocked one bit.
