Earth to Manny Ramirez, It's February and you don't have a team. I don't know if you knew this, but in order to hit 700 homeruns your going to have to play. Sorry, the homeruns that you'll be hitting on the Wii while your peers are playing will not count.
You have pulled many stunts including hiding in the green monster, which is probably the best place for you. Don't get me wrong you are one of the best hitters in the game, but I have not seen Alex Rodriguez, Albert Pujols, or Ryan Howard act this way, so what are you entitled to?
Your acting like you won the World Series for the Dodgers. Granted you and CC Sabathia are perhaps the two best mid season pick ups in recent memory, but why are you bringing this attention to yourself. The Dodgers offered you a one year deal that would make you the second highest paid baseball player ever. Why not take it?
This offer would keep in you in LA where the fans bowed to you and it would only keep you there for one season. Then next year in the free agent market you will be equally as desirable, but the economy will likely be in better shape for teams to spend money. Also, next year the NY Yankees may be, scrath that; the New York Yankees will be pursuing every top free agent once again and you could likely ink an A-Rod like deal.
Wake up Manny! Wake up Boras! Sign this deal its your best shot to be playing professional baseball next season.
