The great Red Sox fan John Kerry magically created a player named Manny Ortiz by apparently morphing Manny Ramirez and David Ortiz.

I think you figured it all out.

Kerry wanted this guy for his fantasy baseball team, and who can blame him? Manny Ortiz has some incredible numbers . . . a .323 average, 103 runs scored, 213 hits, 61 doubles, 49 home runs, and 155 runs batted in.

At the All-Star break, mind you.
