He knows Boston is a tough town to play in and they are smart (at least they are now) and they have the cash.

Top 5 active RHBs? Yes. Maybe top on the upper end of the top 10 all time.

How the hell are you going to find someone to step in and keep a lineup like Papi-Manny-Drew? Fuckin A.

Maybe Bay won't be able to play under pressure as well as Manny, we'll have to see but offensively Bay is 90% of Manny. The runs he'll save on defense would make it an overall improvement.
