"It didn't take Manny Ramirez long to turn thumbs-down on the Los Angeles Dodgers' latest attempt to bring him back to Chavez Ravine.


Just hours after the Dodgers offered him a one-year, $25-million contract that would have made him the second-highest paid player in baseball and the highest-paid outfielder in baseball history, Ramirez and agent Scott Boras informed the team late Monday night that they'd rejected that offer."

Manny Ramirez rejects Los Angeles Dodgers' one-year, $25 million offer - ESPN


If there is a God, Manny will be playing in a beer league somewhere this season.. What a punk.. Where does this guy want to play? And since Boras is directing this bum, it makes it even more disgusting.. Earth to Manny- most teams don't want you or your attitude.. Take your bat and go home..

Why would you reject 25 million for one year???

Because Boras has convinced Manny's feeble mind that there are teams out there that are going to give him 4 years and $100M plus.. I've heard a lot of those 'unnamed' GM's saying they wouldn't sign Manny because of the way he quit on the Sox, and I wasn't convinced.. I'm starting to be convinced.. Has any team other than the Giants shown interest in this guy? We are in February.. ST isn't too far away...

So now he's turned down a 2-year $45 million and a 1 -year $25 million. He had that 4-year on his mind when he punked the Red Sox ... nobody in their right mind will give him more years after the crap he has pulled.

So now I'm thinking I can do what Boras does ... it seems easy.
Whatever they offer you say no ... to make it appear there is another bidder.
If your balls feel large enough then also say no to a 2nd offer so they think perhaps 2 more teams are bidding.
Other than possibly the Giants ... who exactly wants Manny at 3 or 4 years ... $75 to $100+ million?

Hiring Scott Boras last year was Manny's biggest career mistake

My gut says Boras told him to take it and Manny's just being petulant. Boras is a greedy jerk but he's no fool.

I dunno, I think Manny is being mind controlled by Boras, the guy is a snake who would sell his own mother.

By the way, Manny did not tank his last month in Boston even when he wanted out... look at his stats, they were as good as he ever hit and the best hitter on the team

Sitting out with obvious questionable injuries isn't quiting on your team?

The jerk can hit falling out of bed.. The fact that the whole team voted unanimously to have him gone speaks volumes..
