Tampa alters their offer (Manny Deal)

[ThePenguin11]

That's for you Windy. Sorry for the inconvenience.

 

Thanks Penguin -- its more for the sanity of the forum than for me though -- it would get nuts if new threads were created with every update we're getting as the deadline approaches.

 

Just thought it was an important update for those not reading the Manny threads. My bad.

Fuel for speculation:

 

Huff and Cameron are in the games for their respective teams...

Penguin, I thought you were right on...I wouldn't have read this or been interested had there not been a new thread...thank you

Maybe Manny is just throwing a fit. We can't really know for sure.

Interesting indeed... but then again, did any of the supposed Dodgers who would have been in a "Manny trade" get scratched from their game today vs StL - or CWS or Angels?

I didn't realize those teams had proposed deals with Boston.

D'OH! Potentially not good news for us in the "Manny Sweepstakes".

 

Maybe he's just a piece in our 3-way blockbuster where we get Manny and the BoSox get CF. *wishfully hoping for anything that nets us a monster upgrade in LF, like Manny Ramirez!*

[Transmogrified Tiger]

SoSH is convinced he's been traded, likely to the Mets, since they are apparently willing to take on all of Manny's contract.

They might not have had any proposed deals that "sources" knew about, but didn't I read on here in one of the threads that the CWS, Angels, and Dodgers were all interested in Manny, along with the Cubs? And of course the BOS/NYM/TB deal.

I don't know how you could depend on williamson since he hasn't played in a year plus doesn't it usually take a half season for these guys to get back to true form? I'm looking at williamson coming back as a tune up for 2006 and not much more.

 

Nomar....can he do much worse than perez? probably not....

What BOS/NYM/TB deal? I hadn't heard about that one at all...

Manny Ramirez - OF - Red Sox

 

 

The Baseball Tonight crew has learned that Manny Ramirez will not be traded, ESPNews reports.

OK. Ramirez was scratched tonight and the Red Sox still aren't saying why. His hamstring may be giving him problems again, but it's not just that. Jul. 30 - 7:15 pm et

 

EDIT: My thoughts:

 

If he's not being traded, then why take him out of the lineup again. BB2N might be jumping the gun here.

 

EDIT #2:

 

ESPNews is showing "Manny Ramirez not going to Mets". So it must mean he's coming to the Cubs - likely for Todd Hollandsworth and a PTBNL.
