Manny denies trying to back out of trade

Said it’s not true. Didn’t want to discuss it further than that. But we did have our first smaller, more intimate media gathering with him today in the clubhouse, only about a half-dozen of us there. Big thing he said was that he wants to stay here beyond the end of this season. He was even stronger in an interview with ESPN Deportes, in which he said the following:
“I want to even buy a house in Los Angeles. My kids go to school in Miami, and I’d like them to move with me [to L.A.], but there will be no move until my future here is confirmed. I don’t want to be here for two months and then end up in another city.”

    Let’s move on…what’s the line up? That’s the real story.

    All I have to say is I hope the Dodgers sign this guy for another 3 to 4 years. I haven’t felt the energy and expectation in Dodger stadium this way in a long time. I went to the playoff game at Dodger stadium against the Mets a few years ago and there is more energy and excitement when Manny comes up to the plate NOW compared to then. Granted, he’s performed for 3 games and he’s highly motivated at the moment but this is a guy the Dodgers need to invest in. Signing him would make up for the terrible money they’ve put into certain players over the last few years.
