I know it's only April, but anyone else notice this?

It seems to me that Manny Ramirez has been trying much harder so far this year than he has in the past, running harder, even turning down a night off! Could it be that Manny finally really wants to be in Boston? And he will play harder than he has in past? I hope so, I love Manny, but can't stand it when he is "Manny being Manny"
