Manny too expensive for SF.. who knew?
Good riddance. Kinda...
"They fit because they need the bat," one NL executive said. "They're one hitter away from being a real good team. But how do they go to $100 million to add that bat? I don't think there's any way that happens."

too funny
According to one source familiar with the Giants’ thinking, just about every recent rumor connecting the Giants with Manny is “unfounded” or “baloney.”
Including that one, Jayson? What fertile earth for journalists this Manny talk is!
The 2008-2009 offseason is driving me sane!
From MLBTradeRumors
4:35pm: Brian Sabean was on MLB Home Plate’s The Show with Rob Dibble and Jody MacDonald on XM 175 today. His comment on Manny:
“In our case I’m not sure yet. We’re monitoring the situation. We’ve had talks. We have not made an offer. We’ve talked in parameters of what would be yearwise. It would have to be a perfect fit dollarwise and more so what we’re doing to try and build this thing going forward on a younger basis. It’s actually not what we’re looking for, except that he’s such a profound middle of the order hitter. Which we need.”
I’m getting tired of this system of report-then-deny that we have going in the world of hot stove journalism these days. If a “source” is unwilling to give their name/job, then they’re no longer credible, IMO. It’s Fox News reporting. “Sources say George Bush is a genius.” Well okay then!

Who has the fun?
Is it always the man with the gun?
