What should be of greater concern

Rob Dibble discussing how players have the perceptions they do, case in point, Manny Ramirez. Dibble says,

• the newspapers are terrified of offending management.

(Meaning team management, in Manny's case, the Red Sox owners/management). He cites treatment of other players such as Clemens, Mo Vaughn, Nomar, Pedro and Damon, how their perception became what the team wanted it to be. Not to say some or much of it wasn't true, but was driven by the team. Dibble's comments at about 3:32 pm today on XM.

• Dibble has alluded to this fear before.
