"I'm not talking, guys," the 36-year-old slugger said as he entered an elevator at Dodger Stadium after packing up his belongings. "I said all I had to say yesterday. I'll send you guys a Christmas card."Ramirez, a 12-time All-Star who ranks 17th on baseball's all-time list with 527 homers and has hit a record 28 postseason homers, becomes a free agent after the World Series.
