With the Jason Bay to Red Sox talks on the backburner, ESPN’s Jayson Stark is reporting that the Tampa Rays have emerged as the favorite for the slugging OF. The two teams have been in talks centering around RHP Jeff Niemann. Stark and fellow colleague Keith Law believe that the Pirates will hold out for Wade Davis, Reid Brignac, or Jeremy Hellickson.
From today’s Daily News…
Inside the visitors’ clubhouse at Dolphin Stadium, Mets Manager Jerry Manuel called over to Endy Chavez, requesting the outfielder come into the interim manager’s office.
“Chavy, we traded you for Manny Ramirez,” Manuel kidded.
“Straight up,” David Wright chimed in. “Nice job.”
Actually, the truth is, Manny is headed to Green Bay.
