The San Francisco Giants are pursuing free-agent slugger Manny Ramirez and have offered him a four-year deal, a well-connected source told CBS 5. Financial terms of the contract offer were not immediately known. The deal was said by the source to contain incentives for the third year of the contract and a club option for the fourth.
The Giants are already the dark horse in that division without Manny. They've got a very good rotation and a lot of young talent. Add Manny and I think they take the West.
Nah. Timmy is the face of our franchise. It's just that if we get Manny, then we would be clear cut favorites. Plus we have a better ballpark, and even if Manny stays in LA, then the Giants would still be considered favs, because the Dodgers don't have pitching with Penny and Lowe gone.
I'm cool with the idea of bringing in Manny, but 4 years? For a 36 year old guy who plays when he feels like it, and even then is a defensive liability? It better be structured so we can drop him in 2 without too much of a hit.
We still need another legit bat to hit ahead/behind him as well, IMo. Luckily we play in the shittiest division in the league.
