Heard on the radio that the deal is dead. The Marlins wanted Ramirez, two prospects and money in excess of Ramirez's remaining contract for this year. Sheesh. Talk about greedy.
Yep just heard that as well. I just dont understand - this deal makes more sense for the Marlins then any other team involved.
Take Manny and hope he gets the Marlins in the playoffs and generate some interest. Use that excitement and try to get that stadium built. After the season is over pick up the 20 mil option and then deal him to a team next year like they did with Piazza back in the day.
I wanted to see this happen as well as it would weaken the Sox's lineup and get Manny away from destroying the Yankees every single series.
Piazza was a Marlin for 7 days...
