Tony Jackson, of the Los Angeles Daily News, reports free-agent OF Manny Ramirez's (Dodgers) agent, Scott Boras, asked the Los Angeles Dodgers to increase their offer of two-years, $45 million to two-years, $55 million, according to two highly placed sources. The sources also indicated that Boras never objected to the idea of deferred money in the contract.

The Los Angeles Dodgers spoke to the agent for Manny Ramirez

Source (CBSSports.com) ( - ) | 0 comments.

News: The Los Angeles Dodgers spoke to the agent for Manny Ramirez on Friday, and still no sign the sides are any closer to a deal. The Dodgers announced Thursday night that agent Scott Boras had declined the team's latest offer to the star outfielder -- a $25 million, one-year contract with a $20 million player option for 2010. "I talked to Scott a couple of hours ago," Dodgers general manager Ned Colletti said, adding with a shrug of his shoulders, "Nothing new." Asked during the Dodgers' game against Seattle if he remained at a stalemate with Boras, Colletti chuckled and said, "Yeah, whatever." The issue separating the sides now appears to be how it will be paid out -- either the total over the next two years, or spread out through 2013. "Deferred compensation was part of the deal from the very beginning," Colletti said. "I have asked Scott many times to tell us where we are at, what we are bidding against, to tell us what we have to meet. We have yet to be told what the parameters are." [...]

Manny's agent, Scott Boras reportedly proposed two years at $45 million with all the money paid over the course of two years. The Dodgers' last proposal, rejected by Ramirez on Thursday, was for the same length and dollar figure, but deferred without interest over five years.

Colletti and owner Frank McCourt met Wednesday in Los Angeles with Ramirez's agent, Scott Boras, and offered the free-agent slugger a $25 million, one-year contract with a $20 million player option for 2010. "It obviously gives Manny a lot of flexibility. If he were to agree to something like that, then nine, 10 months from now he is free to try the market again," Colletti said Thursday. "So if you have the chance to be guaranteed or the chance to do something else, it's a pretty good spot to be in." Colletti said there was not necessarily a hard deadline, and that Ramirez was not yet needed in spring training.

The Los Angeles Dodgers made a fourth bid for Ramirez on Wednesday, this time offering the enigmatic slugger a $25 million, one-year contract with a $20 million player option for 2010. The latest proposal is similar in dollars to Los Angeles' first offer to the free-agent left fielder this offseason, a $45 million, two-year deal with a buyout or a club option that was ignored by Boras and later withdrawn by the team. This offer, however, gives Ramirez a chance to determine his fate in 2010. He could stay with the Dodgers for a $20 million salary or decline the option and become a free agent again.

The Dodgers consider this their third attempt to ink Ramirez. During the General Managers Meetings in November, Los Angeles offered him two years at $45 million, plus a third-year option for $15 million. Ramirez did not respond, and the club withdrew that offer when the exclusive negotiating period expired Nov. 15. The Dodgers offered Ramirez salary arbitration in December, which would have bound him to the club with a one-year contract at a salary to be determined, but he did not accept the offer. "Two things are clear to me," McCourt said. "We very much want the player back and we're trying hard. We came up with what we thought was a creative proposal to give him a lot of money, and well deserved in a challenging economy, and give him flexibility if he feels it's important to test free agency next year. I don't see long-term contracts happening in this market we're in."

News: The Dodgers are still trying to bring back OF Manny Ramirez. Only the enigmatic slugger doesn't like their latest deal. He rejected their third offer -- for one year -- that would have made him baseball's second-highest paid player behind Alex Rodriguez. That leaves Ramirez unsigned three months after deciding to test his value in the recession-plagued free agent market, with the Dodgers the only team to have confirmed making any offers. "We have interest in signing Manny," general manager Ned Colletti told The Associated Press in an e-mail Tuesday. "We don't have a deadline but these situations can change in an instant and either side can change them in an instant." [...]

Ramirez rejected the Dodgers' third offer - for one year and $25 million - that would have made him baseball's second-highest paid player behind Alex Rodriguez. That leaves Ramirez unsigned three months after deciding to test his value in the recession-plagued free agent market, with the Dodgers the only team to have confirmed making any offers. Ramirez, who turns 37 in May, is believed to be seeking a four- or five-year deal starting at $25 million per season.

Ken Gurnick, of MLB.com, reports Los Angeles Dodgers owner Frank McCourt said the team might have to eventually move on from trying to re-sign OF Manny Ramirez. "The other thing is, the agent [Scott Boras] is challenging to work with and we've tried hard. We've made three efforts and we still have not received a specific number from the agent, and I don't know what to tell you. At some point, you have to move on and start to get ready to win a championship," McCourt said.

The Los Angeles Times reports that Dodgers GM Ned Colletti is still adamant about signing Manny Ramirez, even though the eccentric outfielder has rejected offers of $25 and $45 million. "We still have an interest in signing Manny," Colletti said. "These situations can change in an instant and anybody can change them."Colletti also said that the Dodgers have not ruled out going after other available free agents. The way things stand right now, it seems as if the one chance the Dodgers have at landing Ramirez is to sit idly by as he rejects offers from other teams who can't afford him and reach an agreement some time during Spring Training.

News: Dodgers GM Ned Colletti met with Manny Ramirez's agent last weekend to resume contract negotiations. Club spokesman Josh Rawitch said Monday night that Colletti met with Scott Boras the previous day. Rawitch said the team would not comment on the terms of any new proposal, but several reports indicated Los Angeles offered Ramirez a $25 million, one-year deal.

Several media outlets reported Los Angeles offered Ramirez a $45 million, two-year contract in November. Boras is thought to be seeking at least a four-year deal for the enigmatic slugger, who declined the Dodgers' offer of arbitration in December. [...]

Expanding on an earlier report, the LA Times reports that sources close to Manny Ramirez say that if the free-agent slugger were to be offered a considerable deal from another team, he would likely not allow the Dodgers the chance to match the deal.The Dodgers' failure to sign Ramirez, which is becoming more and more probable, may mean the front office will pursue other free agents such as Bobby Abreu or Adam Dunn.

This represents a significant reduction from the two-year, $45 million offer Manny received from the Dodgers back in November. The market for the Ramirez, who turns 37 in May, has been murky. The Dodgers are the only club known to have made an offer. The Giants are the only other club to have acknowledged interest, although like the Dodgers, it is short term only.
