No, seriously. All he has to do is misplay one gapper with runners on 1st and 2nd, and there's two runs right there.

Dude, come on. Even the worst left-fielder in the league isn't costing his team 2 runs per game.

That's like 324 runs over a season. The Sox gave up 657 runs total this year; saving 2 runs per game, if they got rid of Manny, they give up 333 runs total, which would be the lowest ever. Even if they replace Manny with the best left-fielder in the league, they don't come close to saving 324 runs.

Give us a little credit here. We watch the guy every game he plays. He's not THAT bad of a fielder.
