Mike asks: Obligatory Hanley Ramirez question.
I figured this was coming. The Red Sox requested unconditional release waivers on Hanley the other day, and once he clears — he absolutely will clear because no team is taking on that contract — any team will be able to sign him for the pro-rated portion of the league minimum. Boston still owes him the remainder of his $22.
