There is no way people are going to put up more money then the Yankee's can. Dodgers havent done much of anything either. Resigned Furcal and that was it. Though, there are reports of them wanting Adam Dunn, but i really hope they stay away from his 220 average and crazy insane strike out ratio. I hope its just a smokescreen to resign Manny. Manny may not be the greatested outfielder. Hell, he's below average, but my god can he hit in clutch situations.

Manny is awesome, to a point. His bullshit antics in Boston is really killing the market for him. And the Boras BS about "fielding real offers" after The Dodgers offered him 45 mil for 2 seasons, doesnt do much to help either.
I just can't believe the Angels traded away Kotchman, and then made a middle of the road offer to Teixeira. Why would you do that? If you are going to trade away great young talent, at least make a real run at the FA. And then they followed losing out on tex with a 'No interst in Manny, Dunn, Abreu or anyone else for that matter" speech. Bums me out. maybe they'll surprise me and trade for Peavy and A. Gonzalez. That would make me happy, and less bored too.
