You're saying if we had Manny we'd have a more dangerous lineup. However, he'd be replacing a guy with a 1.300+ OPS. Ergo, the lineup would not improve much at all.
You know what the saddest thing is? Manny apologists such as yourself will look to his absence as the reason they lost this series.
"If only we still had Manny..."
