今日美國職棒大聯盟最夯的話題,我想除了Manny Ramirez的退休外,應該沒有其他話題比這個更突出吧。
引述大聯盟官網給的文字內容

Manny Ramirez is retiring as a player, Major League Baseball announced in a statement issued Friday afternoon.
The statement said Ramirez had "an issue" under MLB's Joint Drug Prevention and Treatment Program and informed the league he is hanging it up rather than "continue with the process under the program."
The statement, in full, reads as follows: "Major League Baseball recently notified Manny Ramirez of an issue under Major League Baseball's Joint Drug Prevention and Treatment program. Rather than continue with the process under the program, Ramirez has informed MLB that he is retiring as an active player. If Ramirez seeks reinstatement in the future, the process under the drug program will be completed. MLB will not have any further comment on this matter."
If the issue involving Ramirez was a drug violation, he would be facing a suspension of 100 games.
Ramirez, with 555 career home runs, signed with the Rays this offseason and was off to a 1-for-17 start at the plate. The 12-time All-Star wasn't with the team on Thursday because manager Joe Maddon said he was attending to a "family matter."
In 2009, Ramirez, 38, was suspended 50 games by MLB for violating theleague's drug policy.
"We are obviously surprised and disappointed by the news," the Rays said in a follow-up statement. "We will have no further comment on this matter, and our fans and organization will carry on."
The Rays will select the contract of Casey Kotchman from Triple-A Durham to fill Ramirez's roster spot.
Manny因為今年藥檢又出問題,聯盟引用第二次藥檢出問題可以給予禁賽100場的處分,於是Manny 生涯共擊出555支全壘打,今年以低薪(2M)在Rays繼續打球,至今天為止出賽5場,17個打數僅敲出1支安打,打擊率是很慘的0。059,雖然參加過12次的明星賽,但這位球員依舊抵擋不過年紀及這次最主要的原因:禁藥問題。今年38歲的他曾經在09年5月也被檢驗出藥檢問題,當時效力於道奇隊就禁賽50場比賽,回來後的成績就大不如前。
圖:Manny 待過的球隊
(1)職棒初期的印地安人
(2)發光發熱的紅襪隊
(3)轉到道奇隊的Manny
(4)去年轉隊至白襪隊的Manny
(5)今年到光芒隊的Manny
回到道奇後,282個打數擊出68支安打打擊率0。241和13支全壘打與季初92個打數擊出34支安打,打擊率0。348和6支全壘打,相差還蠻大的,而去年還是先在道奇出賽66場,打擊率還是有0。316和8支全壘打的成績,但831大限還是因為薪資太貴,賣到白襪後打出成績並不理想,僅僅出現69打數18安打及1發全壘打,0。261打擊率讓他在年底找不到工作。
最後以2M加入光芒隊,試圖東山再起,只是這次藥檢讓他面臨禁賽危機,也引爆了他退休的意願。
不過,說是說退休,誰能相信這位來自多明尼加的選手會不會假以時日又跳出來回到球場呢?impossible is nothing!
只是順道一提的是,Manny有可能進入名人堂嗎?經過了不名譽的*後,應該是大勢底定了吧。
