In an interview for the April issue of Esquire magazine, Jonathan Papelbon said that Manny Ramirez was a "cancer" on the Red Sox.
"It just takes one guy to bring an entire team down, and that's exactly what was happening," Papelbon said. "Once we saw that, weweren't afraid to get rid of him. It's like cancer. That what he was. Cancer. He had to go." Meanwhile, Ramirez is scheduled to make his springtraining debut Thursday after signing a two-year, $45 million deal with the Dodgers last week.
