A lot of people like to rag on Manny Martinez but they have to understand that he is one of the highest paid baseball players in the majors. Therefore, he should be treated with special consideration and we should have more tolerance for his odd behavior because he has earned the right to act that way.

If the owners of the team he plays for doesn't like the way he conducts himself, they ought to reduce his pay accordingly or have him ride the bench until his contract is up and release him to another team. Aside from that, everybody needs to shut up about Manny because like it or not, he is more special than most other ballplayers due to the salary that he commands.

Oh, one guesses the guy can hit. It’s just that he seems so dirty, what with his “hair” and that filthy batting helmet that one would almost expect a swarm of flies to be buzzing him at any given time.

But, oh....we sure shouldn’t rag on baseball players. They’re exempt, you know.
