    Giants Giants Should Make Manny An Offer

    But not for the reasons you think.

    "We love Manny Ramirez," owner Frank McCourt said, "And we want Manny back, but we feel we are negotiating against ourselves. When his agent finds those ‘serious offers’ from other clubs, we’ll be happy to re-start the negotiations."
    Giants should offer a similar deal with less guaranteed money but enough incentives to make the deal worth more than the Dodgers' offer. Not to sign him but to force the Dodgers to spend even more. Why not **** with the rivals? Sabean should **** with his old pal Colletti. Make the Dodgers spend and give more!! And on the very unlikely scenario that Manny accepts the offer, then say hello to the playoffs. Its a win/win situation....as long as we keep Manny happy.

    What incentive could he possibly get out of it, besides being able to prove he'll give up millions to be a vindicative ****tard?

    Did you even ****ing read the article?? The whole point of the article was to drive the price up on the Dodgers, not to sign Manny!!

    Offering less guaranteed money shouldn't force us to spend more because our offer is still the best out there and he knows it. The only reason he'll consider your offer is if he's a vindicative ****tard who cares more about screwing over the Dodgers than about the millions he would give up in order to win a b1tchfest.

    If the Giants offer the same structured deal worth $40 million with incentives that would make it worth $50 million, that would be something Boras could bring to the Dodgers. The Giants deal would be worth more than the Dodgers latest one. McCourt said he needed a serious offer to restart negotiations, now they would have one.

    The Giants deal would be worth more if it actually existed and isn't something you just made up.

    Re: Giants Should Make Manny An Offer

    honestly, I don't think the Giants will make an offer and even if they do, the Dodgers would probably think Boras is BSing them. Just ****ing sign already, go play in Japan, or go away...please take Curt Schilling with you.
