The Dodgers' bid to re-sign Manny Ramirez -- or part ways with him without causing a fan uproar -- will start in the next four days, as General Manager Ned Colletti is expected to meet with agent Scott Boras for the first time this off-season at the general managers' meetings.

finally..sign him already.

I'll bet the Boras negotiations go like this: "Yes my client is a complete post and a cancer in the clubhouse but let's not forget he's one of the most dominant hitters to play the game. Heck if the Dodgers had two or three more Manny's they may have beaten the Phillies........"

Morning cat. Nice work on the page #. See you are ready for work today lol.

Dodgers need to make a serious offer here. If they are going to only offer 2 years they need to seriously blow away the previous 1 year salary high. Arod makes $27.5M a year so the Dodgers would have to offer $30M a year for 2 years or be willing to go 3 years at Arod's price. Anything other than that and I see Boras walking from the table and shopping Manny to the rest of the league in 2 weeks.

Rumor has it that Manny knows exactly where that bat's been and that's why he's sniffing it. Another rumor has it that the first rumor involves Joe Torre's now-frayed balloon knot.

Senor Walrus.. An Indian fan friend of mine told me a while back there was some concern about Manny being lite in the loafers. Seeing his wife is pretty hot, I have my doubts.

Really? Walrus why don't you come here for a moment. Ignore the baseball bat I'm holding and planning to use to club you like a baby seal.

be careful. I actually got reprimanded for discussing the clubbing of baby seals a while back. I think the line that was deemed offensive was "Baby seals....God's hammer testers".

Agreed. I think he's just "experimenting."
