Manny coming back to Dodgers
From the Associated Press:
The Dodgers said Friday that Manny Ramirez exercised his $20 million contract option for 2010. His agent, Scott Boras, informed Dodgers general manager Ned Colletti of the decision.Ramirez hit .290 with 19 home runs and 63 RBIs in 104 regular season games. He missed 50 games while suspended for violating baseball's drug policy.
In the NL division series against St. Louis, Ramirez batted .308 with no homers and two RBI. Against Philadelphia in the NL championship series, he hit .263 with one homer and two RBI.
This is the best news so far this offseason, at least now the Dodgers will not have to go looking for his type of hitter.
Personally I believe the offense is sound, it's the starting pitching that needs to be worked on.
It's going to be rough with this ownership dilemma.
Tell Frank, it's cheaper to keep her.
