Manny SIGNS???

Per the article:

"Agent Scott Boras told ESPN.com's Jerry Crasnick that while he has been in daily contact with Dodgers general manager Ned Colletti, no agreement has been reached.

"We are in discussions and we have no deal in place,'' Boras said.


Boras would not elaborate further on the status of the talks."


With the way everything has gone with Bore @$$ and ManRam this off season, I wouldn't read too much into this yet...


They still have plenty of time to ask for some other stupid over the top request to kill negotiations yet again...


And from what Boras said, I wouldn't expect this deal to just fall into place.

and a collective "who cares..."


Fans , etc. were forced to witness the carnival ride of ridiculous negotiations for this over-priced, egotistical a*s. Guys like this you can't help but cheer against. While I have absolutely nothing against a legendary club like LA; their landing a free agent jerk like him leaves me with the desire to hope they do not even make the playoffs this year! His attitude just makes me ill.

Sorry Dodgerfans. You can have him. The rest of MLB will be fine without him.

Thanks. I'm sure to get some opposing opinions...

BTW, what a class act your guy, Eisenreich is. I've read so many stories about him. Talk about polar opposites Eisenrich/Manny...

Jim's 477 career RBI in 15 seasons look nice next to Manny's 1725 in 16 seasons.

Point being three years from now the only three guys in MLB history with 2000+ RBI may very well be Hank Aaron, Babe Ruth, Manny Ramirez. The dude hit .396 with 53 RBI in 53 games last year with L.A.

Can we at least agree to appreciate the spectacle of watching the guy hit a baseball?

I'm by no means bashing an apparant stand-up guy like Jim E but there's no right to even begin to compare!
