MANNY IS IN THE HOUSE!

I love starting the day with a couple of pictures of Mike! Red Sox third baseman Mike Lowell talked with reporters after working out at the Red Sox baseball spring training facility on Wednesday.

Big Papi seems to be the happiest player there.

In this picture I think he found out his pal Manny was there, On Time!

Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz smiled as he left the practice field.

And here's Manny, New Car, New Attitude, I hear he is in great shape and raring to start playing ball. A white Cadillac Escalade carrying Red Sox slugger Manny Ramirez pulled out of the parking lot at the Red Sox minor league complex after he dropped off his equipment Wednesday afternoon. Tinted windows obscured the view of the left fielder. (photos from boston.com and bostonherald.com)
