Manny Ramirez, who played the last three months of the season with the Los Angeles Dodgers, is a free agent this spring. He can sign with any team that will pay him what he wants. This week he turned down an offer from the Dodgers. He would have gotten $25 million for one season. But he turned it down!!!

When was the last time you turned down $25 milliion?

just proves what i believed for years as far as manny goes the guy is off his rocker i mean the guy can hit no doubt but he doesnt hustle plays hard when he feels like it and is the sorriest excuse for an outfielder ive ever seen even if he does make a nice play every now and again i cant believe anyone in there right mind could turn down that amount of money to play a game i mean come on whats he holding out for a multi-yr deal

I think Manny may get caught by the economic crunch, but I bet he gets a couple of years and around $40 million. And I would put Carlos Lee in the runnning with Manny as the worst outfieldrs in the big leagues!
