Just stumbled on this, no idea how legit it is, but given how they swooped in on Teixeira at the last minute I wouldn't be surprised if this were true.

El dominicano Manny Ramírez está a punto de firmar un contrato de tres años y 75 millones de dólares con los Yanquis de Nueva York, según se confió este domingo a Impactodeportivo.com.do.
Las negociaciones están bien avanzadas y entre el lunes y martes se haría el anuncio oficial.
Manny quería seguir los Dodgers, pero Los Angeles no querían flojar el billete.
Ramírez, quien bateó .332, con 37 jonrones y 121 remolcadas entre Boston y los Dodgers, será una atracción en Nueva York.

A similar piece was written a couple of months back
They were wrong then, too.
Here’s what Cashman said about Manny yesterday:
Though the general manager continues to decline comment on Joe Torre’s book, “The Yankee Years,” he said on Tuesday that his club is done with its big spending and will not pursue the free-agent slugger.
“Ultimately, we’ve made our decision,” Cashman said. "We chose to put that money into Mark Teixeira to play first base. I do hear rumblings [that] people actually expect us to get in on Manny. That’s not going to happen.
Thank you, Brian
As great a hitter that he is, we simply don’t need him and his aura on this team—not now.

I will believe it when he is signed
by another team… until then i will continue to expect anything..

iirc, this article was linked to many times
when it was first reported, but that was months ago, and was obviously untrue then.
i’ll continue to hope though.
