Even if its for the 5-6 year deal him and boras are asking for ?

I wish the Dodgers don't sign him really. Too many bandwagon fans hopped on, fuck these motherfuckers. Dodgers can be competitive without him, they won't be the first team to do well without a superstar the very next season. Mariners did it with the departures of Randy Johnson, A-Rod, and Griffey. Twins had a better season with Johan, Indians had a better record after the CC trade. Rangers had a way better 2004 then 2003 with A-Rod. I'm not saying that it's a direct result of a superstar leaving, but no need to hit the panic button.

na, if i were the owner, id say 4 is the MAX.
if he wants 6 years at about 20M a year, then id offer:
- 3 years 25M a year
- an option for a fourth year that vests if he hits 30 HR OR drives in 100 runs, for 25M
- $50M in guaranteed sponsorships
- 30% of the profits off those manny wigs
plus a few more incentives for performance and awards

I may be wrong but I just see him going to the Yankees....
the price will be too much for the Dodgers and they'll do everything to come in 2nd Place in the bidding
I honestly don't think Manny is coming back, not that he doesn't want to, but because we won't do any crazy bids
he wants more than he was previously making..... and that's OVER $20 million
that being said, no way is McCourt going to fuck around and do that, especially 5 years at that
Personally I think 5 years is too much, I would prefer 3 but it looks like he wants no less than 4, which isn't too bad
my first offer on the table would be 4-years $85 million..... I'd assume he's probably looking for 4-years $100 million
if he goes to the Yankees then that means he was lying the whole time in L.A. talking about just wanting to have fun and not worry about media
who talks shit like that and then goes to the fuckin Yankees? and has to cut their hair and act like a homo like A-Rod does
it definitely wouldn't look good but money talks and it would be a big fuck you to Boston, also later on he could DH
maybe I'm wrong on my whole theory, I hope I am because I want him back on the Dodgers
people say it's a risk and too much money, all I say is look at Jones and Pierre and Schmidt and Loaiza and Furcal, lots of money wasted already
they already know what Manny can do and the buzz he brings, if he's gone next year the Dodgers are the same shitty boring team they were earlier this year
-
Manny left Boston for money reasons. He started to throw a fit because the Red Sox were obviously going to pick up his option at the end of the season, and that option will not even be close to the amount of money he can get during the off-season. The only thing Manny is accomplishing by proclaiming his love for L.A. is that he is driving his price up once he hits the FA market. If Manny only cares about playing baseball, Boras would NOT be his agent. You get Boras as an agent because he's the best at getting the most amount of money for you. We'll just see what kind of money teams start throwing at him. Manny a Dodger is nowhere close to being a lock.

^ well said

Dodgers

fuck NY...having said that,i really dont care

That'd be dope as fuck if we came to Seattle but knowing our luck with players we acquire it won't happen
-
Dodgers.......I hope.

Manning belongs in the AL so he can DH in a year or two
can't turn down 60 over 2 years tho, nobody will match that shit

i dont think anyone will pay him 30M, other than us...but someone might offer him bout 25 for 4 years..thats why i say, 3 years bout 85-90M will get it done.

i see the yankees aggressively going after tex and sabathia..i dont think they will go after manny. and if they do, they wont pay him what arod is making...they will probably go for the longer contract for a less yearly avg, but maybe 20M more, overall.
if we sign manny for 3yrs/90M, and he still able to hit at 40, he will be able to land a DH spot somewhere for at least 15M/yr...making him more money in the long run...of course..if he is still hitting...
