Just in: Manny Ramirez has retired.
After five games with the Tampa Bay Rays, Ramirez decides to hang up the cleats.
In the short sting with the Rays, he had 17 at bats to go along with one hit and one RBI.
Ramirez, 39, came off a productive spring training as he seemed to be determine to be fitted for the opening season and have a quality season.
He comes off a bad 2010 season where he battled injuries and was dumped by the Los Angeles Dodgers and picked up by the Chicago White Sox for the remainder of the season.

Going the long distances for the Dodgers
The Los Angeles Dodgers have started its season on a slow pace, but with 14 games in the new 2010 MLB season and going 7-7 in them, the Dodgers look to its sluggers to lead them into the playoffs again.
Matt Kemp, center fielder, has been explosive in the early season, in the last 10 games, he has blown away seven baseballs over the fence for seven home runs.
Andre Ethier, right fielder, has contributed alongside Kemp, having four home runs and a walk off game winning hit thus far in the season.
Manny Ramirez, left fielder, has been batting .432, with a pinch hit two-run home run and multiple runs based in.
The three players have been caring most of the load for the Dodgers, with the role players like James Loney, Russel Martin and Casey Blake adding on the extra small stats that don't show up on the stat sheet.
The big bats must continue for the Dodgers if they want to make another chase to make the world series this year.
A reason why the big bats have to stay the way it has been for the first 14 games, because the Dodgers pitching is unreliable.
With a decent starting five rotation and a lousy bullpen, the Dodgers have to rely on its hits and runs to win ball games.

Manny is never boring
Without no time to waste in the first day of Spring training, "Manny being Manny," strikes again.
In the first day of the Los Angeles Dodgers Spring training, Manny Ramirez said he is probably not going to be with the team next year.
Ramirez said he doesn't believe the Dodgers want him back after his two year contract is over after the upcoming season.
All he has left to offer is being a slugger, because Ramirez is beginning the start of the end of his career.
With what Ramirez believes is just an opinion, has blown up out of prospective and people believe it is a shot at the Dodgers.
He is known for stirring up controversies, and everyone knows Ramirez loves to be in the center of attention, that is why his nickname, "Mannywood," fits him so perfect.
The season has not started for the Dodgers and Ramirez but if this is the start of many unexplainable actions Ramirez has up his sleeves, than it will be a long season for Dodger nation.
