Time: near 11:15pm EST Gammons: Manny deal complicated As midnight approached Wednesday night on the East Coast, officials from the Marlins and Red Sox said a deal involving Manny Ramirez was not done. Indications from Pittsburgh were that the Pirates were not satisfied with the players they were receiving in exchange for sending Jason Bay to Boston. And in California, Ramirez's agent, Scott Boras, said he had been told nothing, which means nothing has been completed in terms of Ramirez's waving his no-trade rights or in completing paperwork to send to the commissioner's office. So, the complicated three-way deal might go down close to Thursday's 4 p.m. ET deadline. Ramirez wants out, and is willing to go to Florida. The Marlins want him -- and what he means to their pennant chances and pursuit of a new ballpark. The Red Sox clearly are willing to finance Ramirez's exit. But the value of the young players was a sticking point late into the night, and one Red Sox official said, "This is anything but done." The Nomar Garciaparra deal in 2004 went down to minutes before the deadline, and there was so much confusion the Twins never received the second prospect they thought they were owed. This might be Nomar Redux. ※ 引述《Belladonaa ()》之銘言： : 8:50pm: Will Carroll believes the Commissioner's Office has been informed of : a Red Sox-Pirates-Marlins trade even though the teams haven't agreed on the : prospects.
