Posted November 17, 201014 yr After joining the Giants, Cody Ross cashed in with a World Series championship. In the aftermath of celebrating a title, the former Marlin wondered if he also was due a red Ferrari. Clark Spencer of the Miami Herald blogs that Ross made a stab at trying to collect on an incentive thrown out by Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria prior to the 2009 season. Hoping to pep up the team, Loria stated that he would give his red Ferrari to the player voted MVP of the NL Championship Series. Ross was named the NLCS MVP in San Francisco's win over the Phillies. At the GM Meetings in Orlando, Loria clarified the situation: "I said whoever wins the MVP in the World Series and playing for us can have my car. The whole concept was to get to the World Series." On Wednesday, Ross responded in a text message to MLB.com: "The deal was made back in '09. He said whoever was the NLCS MVP he would give his Ferrari. ... So I texted him wondering if the deal was still valid." No, the red Ferrari offer was off the table since Ross didn't win it as a Marlin. Ross certainly isn't walking away empty handed. He is receiving a World Series ring.
November 17, 201014 yr This is like sending a joke text to your ex girlfriend and crossing your fingers as you wait for a response. Not that i've ever done that, just sayin
November 17, 201014 yr He's coming rather close to being officially an idiot. Close? I think he hit the target. He has no genetic excuse, his father is a chiropractor, his brother is an MD (radiologist.) Cody? He wanted to be a rodeo clown. That he would waste even two seconds on BS like this does explain why he and Uggla get along so well.
November 18, 201014 yr whoa marlin fans! Chill out. Cody was obviously not expecting to get the car. I wish cody texted him "they made a art painting of me holding the world series trophy....wanna buy it?"
November 18, 201014 yr It's obvious that he doesn't really expect the car. The point is that it's a pretty douche thing to say. It's like he's trying to rub it in. Too bad the Marlins didn't trade Uggla to San Francisco. He and Cody would have been really happy together there.

November 18, 201014 yr Looks like Cody's sense of humor goes over as well as my dry sense of humor. Difference is that yours is self-deprecating.
November 18, 201014 yr whoa marlin fans! Chill out. Cody was obviously not expecting to get the car. Obviously. If he was serious, it would be his attorney doing the talking.
