If Tavarez is unflappable about nearly everything baseball, there is one thing that bothers him -- when teammate Manny RamÃrez rubs the top of his head, which he did in the dugout last week."Manny's always been a guy who is like 12 years old whenever he feels like it," said Tavarez, who has known RamÃrez for 15 years. "I told him, 'Listen, we are on TV, so stop playing around.' I told him to stop rubbing my head. He knows I fall asleep easily when somebody does that to my head, but he [kept] doing it. Manny's a great guy and a great player."
