Outfield: Dodgers offer Manny lots of Money
According to the Los Angeles Times, the Dodgers have made an initial offer to 
37–year-old, free-agent OF Manny Ramirez, worth $25 million per season, for either two or three seasons.
Omar Minaya, on Ramirez, as quoted by the Journal News at yesterday’s GM Meetings in California, said:
“He’s an offensive player. He’s been a very good player. But for us, where we are right now, where is it we’re going to invest? Our priority right now is we have to address our pitching. We have to look at that first. (Ramirez) is a free agent but today we have to look at how to improve our starting pitching and our relief pitching.”
…as i said yesterday, now enhanced by the contract offer mentioned above, i believe the Mets will flirt with ramirez, but i just do not see a scenario in which they result to signing him…that money could be spent in so many other ways, filling so many other more pressing holes, i just don’t see it playing out…which may ultimately be a good thing…
