A couple of new updates on the Manny front... one from Diamond Leung of the PE in the IE, and another from SI's Jon Heyman. (Both reports are basically one in the same - just two different sources.) In a nutshell though, Manny is asking Boras to 'compromise' with the Dodgers and to include "some deferred compensation." At this point, the two sides are roughly $1.5MM apart in negotiations with coming up with a compromise.
As I said earlier, you almost had to think Manny would have to become more vocal in the negotiations. Sounds like he wants this done and overwith as much as everyone else. Manny also made a statement through Boras, basically refuting the notion that Boras had been withholding the Dodger offers from him. So that settles that.
Hang tight. Maybe this is the end of the road...?
