Baseball Prospectus is reporting a three-team deal has been struck, pending Manny Ramirez's approval, that will send Ramirez to the Marlins for cash and a prospect from Boston. Boston gets left fielder Jason Bay and pitcher John Grabow from Pittsburgh. The Pirates will get OF Jeremy Hermida and 2 prospects from the Marlins and one from Boston. Wow, that was complicated. Thoughts?
UPDATE: Hold your horses. Peter Gammons is reporting that the deal is still being negotiated because the Pirates are not satisfied with their return for Jason Bay. This could be in response to an increased offer from the Rays, but that is just speculation on my part. Stay tuned for another segment of the Manny Saga.
