Free agent outfielder Manny Ramirez has reportedly been telling close friends that the Yankees are prepared to offer him a three-year contract. Most teams are only willing to give Ramirez a two-year deal, but Ramirez believes New York will give him a third year. Ramirez doesn't intend to receive serious offers from any team until Mark Teixeira, a fellow Scott Boras client, is off the market.
