Report: Dodgers owner furious with Manny Ramirez
LOS ANGELES (AP)—Los Angeles Dodgers owner Frank McCourt is furious with Manny Ramirez(notes) and is demanding that the star slugger speak to his teammates about the failed drug test that led to his 50-game suspension.
The Los Angeles Times reports that McCourt spoke with Ramirez on Saturday and let him know how unhappy he is. It was during that conversation that McCourt demanded that Ramirez meet with his teammates, the Times reported on its Web site Sunday, citing unidentified sources.
The Times says the meeting might happen sometime after the Dodgers begin a six-game road trip in Philadelphia on Tuesday.
Ramirez was suspended last week after he tested positive for a banned substance that, although not a steroid, is commonly taken by steroid users.
