Cody RossFormer Giants outfielder Cody Ross is still looking for a job and is softening his former demands for a three-year contract.

David O’Brien (Atlanta Journal Constitution) says that the World Series hero is now willing to take a two-year deal.

So far, only a handful of teams have expressed any interest in Ross (who earned $6.3 million last season with the Giants).

The Reds, Red Sox and Rockies have all been linked to Ross in the past few weeks, but as of this hour, Ross is unemployed.

I hope you enjoyed reading "Cody Ross still part of the 99%." I'm interested in your opinion on this article. Why not leave a comment at 22gigantes.com?
