With the A's having no immediate plans for him to play in the bigs Manny asked for and received his release. Since it's apparent that requirements to be on the Reds bench are that you need be under 26 or over 34 and seemingly have nowhere else to go in the game of baseball, could this fresh meat on the free agent market find a place in Cincinnati and if so will he remember the throaty bellows of "Chupa mis huevos ManRam!" from the scout seats? I mean really if the Reds can sign Jim Edmonds to a meaningless contract to play a few months in 2010, why not bring Manny Ramirez in 2012?
