I believe it was the players who voted to give him a cut, but I may be wrong. If so, whether the Red Sox management liked Nomar or not, giving him a cut of the winnings is a great PR move. Not saying they did it for that reason, but we don't know if their intentions were truly classy.
As far as the ring, yes they should give it to him.
As far Pedro's comments, it isn't surprising. He hasn't had a great relationship with Boston the last several years. He commented on the possibility of playing for the Yankees while still employed by Red Sox, so I am not the least bit surprised by his comments once he is gone.
He said he was not happy with the way his agent was treated, he took it personally. I don't know the truth, nobody knows the truth. He is pitching great in NY, and the Red Sox are a great team.
