Dodgers, Ramirez at a standstill
Los Angeles Dodgers general manager Ned Colletti went a second day without talking to the agent for Manny Ramirez.
In a Friday night conference call arranged to announce the signing of left-hander Randy Wolf, questions ran about two to one in favor of Ramirez.
Colletti said he hadn't spoken to Scott Boras since Wednesday and had no negotiations scheduled, now three days since Ramirez rejected a one-year, $25 million contract offer from the Dodgers.
"At some point in time we will come to a conclusion," Colletti said. "We're not there yet."
Asked if the club would continue a dialogue beyond the day position players were due to arrive in camp, which for the Dodgers is Feb. 18, Colletti declined to answer.
"I'd be putting a deadline on it if I answered that question," he said.
