I think Dukes is a product of his upbringing, alas.
Plus Manny has never liked him or wanted him around. He felt like he was one of those problem people Bowden saddled him with (along with Da Meathook). So I don’t think Manny went out of his way to try to help Dukes at all. IMHO, of course, but it’s based on what I’ve read and some of Manny’s quotes.

but he's not
and (some) players feel like they have to walk on eggshells around him and give him a wide berth in the locker room. that’s a pretty small room to be that uncomfortable with someone.

I think the guy has lived his whole life in the Bermuda Triangle of unhappiness and he doesn't know
any better. No excuses here just facts. It’s hard for some people to rise above their past and it seems that way with him.

Admittedly...
I don’t know much about him except what they show on the news. He just seemed to make the news a lot. Not lately, though. Presumably because he was in the minors.

honest story
last year i went to a nats game with some friends from college, one of my friends friend was best friends with zim all through high school so he treated us to a game, and going out with zim afterwards,
elijah was really a great guy and a cool ass dude to talk to, i live in richmond and he was down here on rehab with columbus and saw me and remembered me and hooked me up with a hat and some seeds for the rest of the game, so i have a soft spot for him

Yeah, I know someone else would have probably blown it, but
it just seems a bad idea to bring in a relief pitcher who hasn’t even had a chance to get to know the catcher. And we all know Wil calls a “quirky” game at best.

Does Burnett have some skeletons in his closet or
does he have a questionable character?
Manny seems to like to set those players up for the fall as soon and as often as possible.
It’s his form of passive aggression.

With two outs and runners on first and third, Hanley Ramirez lined a base hit to right field, where the plodding Willingham was playing deep. By the time he was able to retrieve the ball in shallow right, Emilio Bonifacio had scored all the way from first base
