Red Sox left fielder Manny Ramirez beat his own timetable to camp when he arrived in the clubhouse at 8:54 a.m. ET on Monday, three days before he had told the club he'd be there.
Ramirez had been given permission from the club to report on March 1 because of an illness to his mother. The rest of the position players reported on Feb. 20.
The slugger quietly walked into a clubhouse and politely asked reporters to "please move, I need some space."
Wearing braids with red highlights and appearing toned and in shape, Ramirez came in wearing white sweat pants and a black T-shirt. He was greeted by several teammates, including David Ortiz, Alberto Castillo and Doug Mirabelli.

According to a source familiar with the Rockies situation, the team would love to see the Red Sox rekindle talks for a Tod Helton deal that makes sense for both sides.
Helton reportedly would love to play for the Red Sox.
"I think the Red Sox want to see Helton in spring training to make sure he's all right from his [stomach problems] last year and to make sure his back is OK," said the source. "Helton in that lineup makes them unbelievable."
