Angels And Teixeira...Manny On Manny

The Anaheim LA California Angels DID make an offer to Mark Teixeira in Las Vegas, terms not public yet. Boston will smear them, and if Mark wants to come to the east coast, there is, frankly, only one destination for him. My fingers are crossed.

And here's a "sob" story, from the AP...

"Manny Ramirez is so upset by his lack of suitors on the free agent market that he’s told friends he would consider retirement if an offer doesn’t come soon, Newsday reported yesterday. Los Angeles Dodgers GM Ned Colletti is prepared to wait out Ramirez, meanwhile.
The NL West champions made the free agent slugger a two-year, $45 million offer this fall but haven’t heard whether he will accept it. Colletti said he last spoke with Ramirez’ agent, Scott Boras, on Monday night. The 36-year-old Ramirez, who came to the Dodgers from the Red Sox at the July 31 trade deadline, batted .396 with 17 home runs and 53 RBI in 53 games for Los Angeles."

Peter here...poor Manny...or as Linda Rondstat wrote and sang, "POOR POOR PITIFUL ME." What he did to the Red Sox with his attitude and general "Mannyness" was completely and pitifully disgusting. More to come as the situations develop.
