[@Jose_Hunters_EWF_Remixes]

The Marlins win the WS in their 5th and 11th seasons, and no one cares, not even their fans. Now they're a chronic doormat, a real joke.

[@PinkJellyNinja11]

It's insane that those 90s Indians teams never won a world series... so much talent in that lineup

Kinda like this current Yankees squad

[@JK-Alabama11k]

@@mikeprince2036 hell no the Yankees suck

[@upperechelon5692]

The teams that blow my mind the most for not winning a WS are the 90's Indians, early 2000's Mariners, and 2010's Tigers.

Great 1st episode. I remember not being so thrilled when the dodgers got him in 08 after his clowny actions that year in boston but by his 1st week there i was literally screaming GIVE HIM ANYTHING HE WANTS at dodger stadium. Such an amazing player

[@allenelliott2114]

Was not expecting to see you here. But I'm very here for it

17 homers in 53 games that year for you guys too, some great numbers.

[@TreeforLife]

@@allenelliott2114 Agreed. I didn't even realize he was a baseball/dodger fan (though it makes sense)

[@thelastmanonearth2631]

Manny Ramirez and C.C. Sabathia have the two most prominent seasons I can remember where they played for a team for just the last half of a season. Probably the best ever, as that "we're going to trade away our farm system to rent you for three months" thing kinda came and went within a decade. Teams wised up, though you could argue for the Brewers and Dodgers, it was almost worth it those years.

[@travisrowe7697]

Benjamin Voegele Randy Johnson with the 1998 astros as well ... 11 starts 4 complete game shutouts 10-1 1.28 era 116ks in 84.1 innings. Helped them with the NL Central. Went on to sign with Arizona the next season.

[@maxforstag]

Roids or not, Manny is one of the greatest RH hitters of all time. Kills me that the Tribe couldn't have won just 1 World Series. Along with all the other great hitters in their 90s lineups, just having Manny and Thome hitting back to back from '94-2000 is among the greatest RH-LH power duos in the history of the game.

[@corettaha7855]

Like it or not, steroids saved the mlb after they canceled a World Series in the late 90s. I can’t hate sportsmen for steroids.

[@dreadiejaquan9240]

[@stevev.3628]

Grew up in Boston. Saw him play in Pawtucket a couple times. Knew then he'd be a stud. Cried when my Sox signed him. Sweetest RH swing all-time.

[@nickhalfmann8397]

165 RBI's and still can't get the AL MVP. RIP.

[@behindthefern2846]

Manny was my favorite baseball player growing up.

[@stevenkunzer9027]

Imagine being Kenny Lofton holding together the Indians outfield with Manny and Albert Belle.

[@maxforstag]

That outfield trio is legitimately one of the greatest of all time. All three are HOF caliber players, two of the greatest power hitters and the BEST leadoff hitter of their era. It's really a shame that none of them will get in, because their stats are certainly deserving.

[@gabrieldelgado3996]

manman this is hands down one of the best videos of tribute i ever seen,....

[@Youtubesucks777]

I played against manny on a rainy day on long island in early 90. Herricks high school field during fall ball. He homered right down the 3rd base line into the tennis courts. I went yard as well. Great memory.

[@jayzoncano]

I don’t understand how this channel is not more popular the videos are so good!

[@travisrowe7697]

I remember waking up to that front page of the Boston Globe. What a glorious day in Red Sox history. A day before ARod had signed with Texas for 10/252 and 3 days before Mike Hampton signed with the Rockies for 8/121. Those 3 contracts led to the explosion of massive deals in baseball. What a great time to be a kid growing up watching baseball though.

[@Pedicrap]

I concur. As a Dominican around that time, the Blue Jays was the team to follow.

[@HamsterK37]

The sweetest RH swing I've ever seen

[@joelmejia710]

I grew up and played with Manny at George Washington HS, and he was the same even back then. He is a free spirit akin to a Bohemian. Everyday after BP he would run laps endlessly, he worked really hard. It was really an amazing sight to see Manny hit with an aluminum bat in HS, I'm talking some legendary taters, it was like seeing a ball launched from a mortar tube.

Growing up every Dominican who moved to The Bronx and lived close by Yankee stadium were mostly Red Sox fans because the team was filled with great Dominican players including Manny Ramirez. That’s cool you added that manny liked the blue jays because of a Dominican player.

[@GasGotti]

I was there at his return to Fenway Park in 2010. I had some pretty bad seats but he hit a mammoth double. It was very exciting to be a part of.

[@mikef9126]

Manny was in his second year. Playing in right. We were in first row right behind him. He stretched the whole top of the first. I’m not exaggerating when I say he missed 10 of the 15 pitches. Wasn’t even close to looking. Had it been today, the video would be everywhere. It was a classic Manny move. I loved him. Everyone did.

[@refusetolose05]

Manny was my favorite player growing up. When he left the Indians i was so sad.

You and me both bro

[@harlemworld1174]

Funny enough, both my father and my uncles went to high school with manny and were very good friends with him. I ended up going to that same high school for my first 2 years of HS. And the teachers told me stories about how Manny would be in the field day and night, rainy or sunny, just practicing, it’s pretty amazing.

[@Justinsox39]

I’m a die hard Sox fan since the 80s. I was never more excited than i was when we got manny. I think he’s the best right handed hitter in history.

[@JMarston1984]

Manny Ramirez was one of the greatest hitters who ever lived. Dude could roll out of bed and go 3-4 with a homer and 3 RBI. Natural Born Hitter.

I guest one of the key reasons Manny hated the Yanks was because only the Yankees defeated the Braves in the World Series. The same thing happen to the Ray's in which Tampa lost to the Phillies while the Yankees dominated the Phillies the next year in that World series.
