That bid was from Manny. I forgot he's trying to sell it, and he thought it looked like a cool grill.

Hysterical...yet very possible.

[redsoxsuperfan]

He's gonna make so much money off this! As if he doesn't have enough yet, right?

 

Could he give the grill to a soup kitchen or a homeless shelter and just write off the cost of it? Yes. Could he donate it to charity, or promote this whole auction for something more worthwhile? Yes. Could he just leave the grill in his garage and not care about $4,000 since he makes $20,000,000? Yes.

But he isn’t - he’s selling it on eBay and making a quick buck. I say go for it Manny - be a cheap-ass as long as you keep hitting.

Good for Manny, living the capitalistic dream. He doesnt owe the homeless anything.

Manny's not an idiot or trying to make a quick buck:

Manny speaks!

 

By Amalie Benjamin, Globe Staff

 

It's not Manny's grill.

 

Or so he told me just a few minutes ago in the Red Sox clubhouse in the first words spoken to any member of the media this spring. The eBay ad that has been circulating today is affiliated with the Sox slugger, he just doesn't own it. Apparently it belongs to his neighbor, who he's trying to help out by standing for a photo with the grill, which is advertised as being his on the popular web site. Bids are up to about $4,550 for the Jenn-Air grill.

 

Though Ramirez indicated that he was not interested in baseball questions, he did speak to his personality, to his reasons for not speaking with the media, and his happiness just playing the game.

 

He said he'll be happy to talk after his retirement, though he would not offer any guesses as to when that would be.

 

"I'm just here to play the game and enjoy it," Ramirez said. "[i enjoy] my life. All the things that I do I enjoy. I'm not here to talk to [the media]. I'm here to play the game.

 

"That's me, you know. The same. Everywhere I go is the same."
