If you were to sign Manny next year, what would you give him, years and dollars?
It is almost no doubt that the Sox will not pick up his 20 mil option. There is also almost no doubt that he is not worth nearly that much and I am pretty sure the Red Sox know that and have known that for a while. Whether they helped to orchestrate all this negative publicity surrounding Manny lately, and I wouldn’t be surprised if they did, I think they are quite happy with it, at least to the extent that it helps ease, if not eliminate, any flak they may have gotten for not picking up the option.
Anyway, if you are a team signing him as a FA, what would you give him?
Also, what do you think he will get, from a sabermetrically stupid team I am assuming?
