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?

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!
