Dodgers pull out of Jones, Rowand negotiations

12.3.07 9:56pm PST
Contrary to earlier reports, the Dodgers never had an offer out to Andruw Jones and they have also said "no thanks" to Aaron Rowand. Dodgers' GM Ned Colletti has not closed the door all the way on Jones, but he does say that the Dodgers never submitted a contract offer for the free agent center fielder.

Jones' agent, Scott Boras, is rumored to be asking for a 5-year $90M deal.

The Dodgers have also said that Aaron Rowand is asking for more than they're willing to pay. The free agent center fielder is apparently asking for 5-years, $70M

If you couldn't tell already, the Winter Meetings are underway and there's already offers being made. According to Jerry Crasnick of ESPN, the Los Angeles Dodgers have made a 2-year $32M offer to free agent center fielder Andruw Jones.
