Bug going around Dodgers catches up to Manny Ramirez

Manny has a cold

LOS ANGELES — Manny Ramirez is not feeling well.

The suspended slugging outfielder has apparently caught a bug that’s been going around the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Manager Joe Torre says Ramirez has a cold and is running a slight fever. Torre says he had a brief bout with laryngitis recently.

Ramirez is serving a 50-game suspension for violating baseball’s drug rules.

The Dodgers have not settled on a date for Ramirez to begin his 10-day rehab assignment before he is scheduled return on July 3 at San Diego. Torre said that should be determined by the end of the week.
