Dodgers' owner Frank McCourt hinted Tuesday that the team might be reluctant to sweeten the offer they made Manny Ramirez. "There's nothing that's gotten better in the economy since that time," McCourt said. "You can interpret that how you like." McCourt also said that the ball is "100 percent" in Manny's court at this point in the negotiations. "We made what I consider an aggressive offer, particularly in light of the economy," McCourt said. "We were hoping to get something done quickly. That didn't happen. We'll continue to make decisions in the best interest of the club, both short-term and long-term."
