I think the Dodgers should re-sign Manny Ramirez because, Manny is a future hall of famer and he seems to like it in LA. Manny hit 17 homeruns and 53 RBI’s in just 2 months and he only hit 20 homeruns and 88 RBI’s in 4 month’s with the Red Sox. And that’s why the Dodger should really re-sign Manny Ramirez.
