He wouldn't take 2/$40 in November (or with the Red Sox, where those were the option years through 2010), but it may be a different story now. The Dodgers pulled their offer the table. We don't know about ANY substantiated offers since then. 2/$40 would safe face, but someone might very well get him for less.
Boras cost Varitek a few million, but he could end up costing Manny a lot more. Of course, Boras wouldn't have gotten a cut of those options years, which is really why we're here with Manny.
