MLB Updates: Dodgers Make New Offer to Manny Ramirez

Published by thetradersarena at 11:58 am under MLB Talks Edit This

The Dodgers have made Free Agent Outfielder Manny Ramirez a new offer. Well, new terms to an old offer is a better way to put it.

  • The contract would be a 2 year deal, worth 45 million dollars.
  • The first year would pay out 25 million, and the 2nd deal would pay out 20 million.
  • The 2nd year is a player option so Manny could walk if he felt he could get more next winter in possibly better economic times.
  • If Manny gets injured this year, his 2nd year of the contract becomes GUARANTEED.

    • The Twins have ended talks with RP Free Agent Juan Cruz. Talks of a sign and trade died off because they never started. Cruz rejected the offer before the trade talks began.

    Many teams are signing up their non arbitration eligible young stars. The list is too long, but notable names such as Geovany Soto, John Danks, Gavin Floyd, and Josh Hamilton have signed in the past few days.

    Jose Rijo has been fired from the Nationals. This is the guy who recruited E. Gonzalez, the player who was “19″ but turned out to be 23.
