I vaguely heard there is an option for next year in Manny's contract, is it a team or player option?

Question

or am I wrong on what I heard all together?

Answer 1

According to wire reports, as part of the deal -- Ramirez had no-trade rights and had to approve it -- the Dodgers, who now hold his contract, agreed to void the options for 2009 and 2010. Quick summary, he's a two-month rental for the Dodgers, and will go free agent after the season.

Answer 2

Yeah you are wrong the Red Sox waived this years and next years option o get rid of him.
