Drafted by the Cleveland Indians in 1991, it didn't take long for Manny Ramirez to validate the team choosing him in the first round. Getting his first opportunity to play full-time in the '95 season, he averaged 36 HR and 123 RBI for six seasons, playing a huge role in the Indians making it to the World Series in '95 and '97. However, he was FA after the '00 season, and with Cleveland not being a big market team, they were unable to secure him for the long-term.
One of the bigger markets, Boston, signed him for $160 million over eight years with a $20 million option for the '09 and '10 seasons. He without hesitation carried over the success he had in Cleveland, but then he showed something else; a personality that quickly stood out over any other. Things like the trademark dreadlocks, disappearing in the dugout and Green Monster, and his unusual interaction with Red Sox Nation that helped create what is known as "Manny being Manny". But all of the antics was allowed, since he averaged just about the same numbers from '01-'06 that he did in that stretch with the Indians, which included being the World Series MVP, helping Boston win in its first championship in 86 years. However, the numbers started to decline in '07, as he had just 20 HR and 88 RBI. But just like what he did in '04, he stepped up when it counted, helping the team win another World Series in '07. In '08, that unique personality finally started to show its ugly side and off the field. Fights in the dugout with players to altercations with the staff to giving up on ground balls led to many in Red Sox Nation to request the organization to cut ties with the disgruntled superstar.

We tell you who to sit and who to start in setting your hitting line-ups each week. For the top hitters for the week, we focus on questionable hitters that may or may not normally start for you that have favorable schedules this week. We won't bother listing hitters like Pujols, Hanley, or A-Rod in this article, because you always start them, regardless of schedule. Likewise, we won't list lousy hitters in the bottom section, because you'd obviously bench a hitter like David Eckstein playing in PETCO all week without our having to tell you to do so. For the bottom hitters, we focus on the average and better than average (but not star) hitters that you would normally start but have poor schedules this week. Top platoon starts are mostly RHBs playing many LHPs in the upcoming week. Bottom platoon starts are mostly LHBs facing a heavy LHP schedule. Top SB starts play against teams that allow many SBs, and vice versa.
