You can bet that the players in that club house had some say in this move including the Manager. They have their two WS rings. The pressure is off. In the long run they will be better off without his distractions imo. I know many will disagree with me on this that is fine. But they are better off with Bay and the loss of the distraction that Manny was.

According to the Boston papers even Manny's clubhouse friends turned on him and suggested to management he be traded. The rest of the team wanted him gone long ago.
