JC’s Dodger Dugout Whispers | June 30: Torre Tidbits

Dodger manager Joe Torre was peppered with various questions before the game against the Colorado Rockies on Tuesday, and Manny Ramirez was on many reporters' minds.

Torre indicated he will put Manny back in the No. 3 hole when he is activated on Friday but will keep a close eye to make sure Ramirez "has his legs under him." Joe noted Manny will have to be honest with him regarding how he is feeling, as it is important for Manny to transition back into the lineup with no setbacks.

Still, Torre's initial thought is having Manny play every day. He may have to "go get Manny in the seventh inning" in certain games. Torre also pointed out this will be a new experience for Manny, restarting his season in July.
