Johan/Pelfrey/Maine/Redding

We have 4 legit starters. 2 of the above had surgery this offseason. I do not assume anything.

Bird in the hand, Missouri, all that.

As for Manny, I agree. Considering what our pitching staff is like we need him. He is a difference maker. Warts and all. But only short term. I dont want him for 4 years. Too risky.

Its just a lame excuse. If they wanted him and got him you'd hear how he really is a great guy and has a good work ethic. Reyes is not 19 anymore. He's old enough to know how to play and how to behave. (26) dave…. Its just a lame excuse. If they wanted him and got him you’d hear how he really is a great guy and has a good work ethic.

He may affect young players like Reyes, but if you win the whole thing who cares? You bring him in to win now. He may affect young players like Reyes, but if you win the whole thing who cares?

Even the Clevelend Indians were in the World Series twice with Manny. That's not such a bad record to look up to. Whatever people say about him there must be something right to be on so many winning teams. Ed (24): Manny’s been in 10 Division Series, 7 League Series and 4 World Series.

Don Mattingly, who has no reason to tell fibs, stated that Manny was a good guy to coach. Showed up everyday and played hard. Yeah, I know his act wore thin in Boston, but I still wonder how much of that was manufactured by the Boston and national (read, ESPN) media. The dude can flat out rake. This team could use a bat like his. A short 2-3 yr deal would be fine. Why would Reyes instantly look up to Manny?

I also notice that in outside reporting only the Dodgers are entertaining the amt of dollars and more years. I don't want to give him 4 years or 3 for that matter. Strictly a rental. Ray(17)
