Manny Ramirez is known for saying some curious things. This is his latest pronouncement: The Dodgers star insists his days in Los Angeles are numbered. “I know I’m not going to be here next year,” Ramirez said Monday. Ramirez’s contract expires after this season. Why is he so certain he won’t get an extension? “I don’t know,” he said. “I just know I’m not going to be here.” At 37, Ramirez is heading into his 17th major-league season. The former World Series MVP served a 50-game drug suspension last year and, for him, was hardly a force — .290, 19 home runs, 63 RBIs. The Associated Press
