Love to see the Dodgers stuck with a bad contract.

He'll be 38 in May 2010 & without roids for a year. Does he hit .270, 15 HR, 65 RBIs for that $20 mil?

I wonder if the Dodgers will pull a 'RedSox' and trade him (no-trade, but with permission), and eat half of his contract- thus 'saving' 10 million...

Yeah one thing you can count on is Manny being Manny! He's good for L.A.

The Dodgers will keep all year. If he bounces back with 35 homers and 110 rbis the Dodgers will have the best OF in the NL.

At 38...not a good chance he gets those #s without roids....and if he is getting $20 mil, he needs a whole lot of clutch hits. Not just #s. I don't see him doing it. I do see his defense dropping off....
