Manny Ramirez -- By the numbers (1 Viewer)

Heard during the game today that Manny is in his 7th season with Boston, and he played seven full seasons in Cleveland. So I wanted to take a look at his numbers with the two clubs. Link provided above.

These stats are up to the minute.

AT BATS

CLEVELAND - 3470

BOSTON - 3116

HITS

CLEVELAND - 1086

BOSTON - 983

HOME RUNS

CLEVELAND - 236

BOSTON - 234

RBI

CLEVELAND - 804

BOSTON - 713

By the time he gets another 354 at-bats later this year (which will match his total number of at-bats with the Indians), he will have just about the same number of hits as he did with Cleveland, and he should be pretty close to his RBI totals as well. He figures to be WELL past his Cleveland HR total when the at-bats line up equally, but you have to give the Green Monster some credit for that.

So what have we learned here?

The guy is a crazy consistent raking machine, and he's a first-ballot Hall-of-Famer.

In my next post, I discuss water being wet and Ryan Leaf being a bust.

He obviously should wear an Indians hat in the Hall...

I still remember watching him play AA ball and turning to my dad and saying "This Ramirez guy can hit a ton but he's a lazy bum in the outfield. He'll never make it in the bigs."

Yep. Drafted by the tribe, came up thru the system, helped lead the Indians to two world series after being a lousy team for 40 years. Yah, he won a ring with Boston, but Boston has more of a winning tradition and he'd just get lost in the shuffle of great players there. Obviously he is the best Indian of our generation.
