Manny the Maniac

According to ESPN's Peter Gammons, Manny Ramirez rented a house in the Phoenix area and has become a "maniacal workout warrior" at the Athletes' Performance Institute.

"From what I've heard from people at API, Manny is getting himself into phenomenal shape," Gammons wrote. Ramirez has additional incentive to put up a big year as he enters the final guaranteed season of his eight-year, $160 million contract. The Red Sox hold $20 million options on him for 2009 and 2010.

It's a bout damn time! Leave it up to him to wait for a contract year to get in shape. Maybe it was the fact that his production dipped way past his normal production last season, a season where he hit only 20 HRs and 88 RBI. He is also working very hard on cutting balls off from the CFer. It is good to see Manny actually taking things seriously over the offseason instead of crying and maybe he will look a lot less like Predator.

He will need to lose weight for that to happen.
