So Damon doesn't want to go to Boston? Is that all because of the vitriol towards him having been a Yankee?

I don't expect Damon to move regardless if he wants to or not. IMO, this was strictly a case of Boston blocking Damon from Tampa or New York. I suspect they will do the same with Manny later this week or early next week when he placed on waivers.
Apparently doesn't want to go to the Rays or Yankees either.
I'm not surprised about the Yankees. He said there were no hard feelings, but also mentioned that he and Yankee management disagreed on what he could bring to the table for the team this year.

In regards to Lou Pinella, I'm glad I got to see him manage the cubs in a game in Seattle back in June. Matinee game went 13 innings, 4 hours, perfectly sunny and Lou even stormed out late in the game to argue with the third base coach. Didn't get tossed, but was quite entertaining.
What a crazy game in Philly Roy Oswalt is now playing LF in a 2-2 game in the 16th.
LOL. He made a catch! He even got to hit but made the final out with 2 men on! This was all because the Phillies had run out of players and then Howard got ejected.
Phillies lost in 16.

Why the HELL did he get tossed? Because he threw his bat?
Looked like the umpire wanted some limelight....idiot.....just threw his bat and at the distance they were I doubt he could hear what Howard said...took a second and threw him out.
The swindlers who run the Florida Marlins got exposed Monday. They are as bad as anyone on Wall Street, scheming, misleading and ultimately sticking taxpayers with a multibillion-dollar tab. Corporate fraud is alive and well in Major League Baseball.
A look at the leak of the Marlins’ financial information to Deadspin confirmed the long-held belief that the team takes a healthy chunk of MLB-distributed money for profit. Owner Jeffrey Loria and president David Samson for years have contended the Marlins break even financially, the centerpiece fiscal argument that resulted in local governments gifting them a new stadium that will cost generations of taxpayers an estimated $2.4 billion. They said they had no money to do it alone and intimated they would have to move the team without public assistance.
