Manny to Toledo?

I love this stuff! The Toledo Mud Hens have offered Manny Ramirez a spot in their lineup. The best part of the deal is no doubt the incentives. In addition to getting jersey No. 24...
Manny will receive a 24% discount on all merchandise in the Swamp Shop souvenir store, and he can enjoy 24 complimentary Muddy Dogs (chili, cheese, and onions) per homestand. Yummy!

If you don't remember, they made a similar offer to A-Rod in 2007 after he opted out of his 10-year $252 million with the Yankees. They even produced a Hall of Fame plaque featuring Rodriguez wearing a Mud Hens hat.

Kudos to the Mud Hens for trying to illustrate how ridiculously greedy and self-absorbed these guys are.
