Hanley Ramirez 2010: Starting All-Star SS

[Party]

Wait a minute, I like Loria getting involved if he's defending Hanley.

[MiamiHomer]

Nope, Hanley needed to be benched in that situation.

[Ramp]

why should Hanley be defended?

[Bobbob1313]

Yeah, I don't like him defending Hanley in that situation.

[Party]

I'm not saying he didn't deserve to be benched. But from the Marlins perspective, you want to keep Hanley happy. Loria may not agree with Hanley but him playing the Good Cop keeps the owner on Hanley's good side.

[Ramp]

Fuck that shit.
--------------------
That's some bogus horseshit thinking right there.

[Party]

I want to keep Hanley happy. He means much more than Fredi does.

[MiamiHomer]

Did I miss something or is Hanley not a grown man?

[Ramp]

what do you mean keep Hanley? where is he going?

[Swifty]

He's here 'till 2014, I think it'll all be OK.

[Party]

Did I miss something or is Hanley not a grown man?

Hanley grew up in poverty.

Hanley has been told he's the shit since he was 16.

Hanley has nearly unlimited wealth.

Hanley thinking like a grown man is not a slam dunk.
--------------------

what do you mean keep Hanley? where is he going?

"I want to be traded."

See: Manny Ramirez

[MiamiHomer]

Welcome to reality then Hanley.

[Party]

I don't disagree.
--------------------
I don't want this to sound like an enormous cliche but...

There really has not been a Latino veteran presence on the team since 2006. Helms (from what we've read) is that guy for many of the American players. But there is not that common bond that Latino players have amongst each other. Perhaps, the lack of a Latino presence explains why Hanley is still being a bitch four years into his career.

The organization has Tony Perez and he was used a few times to fill that role when Cabrera was here. (Remember Cabs begging Tony for #24?) I'd be interested in finding out if Tony has ever taken Hanley aside has a former player and told him he needs to man up.

[Party]

MLB Tonight is going to play a clip from the post game with Fredi after the commercial break.

[Bobbob1313]

It's probably just what FSN showed that Mba tweeted.
