Re: A-Rod opts out of contract
I'm surprised that he's done this. I'm especially surprised he's done it so early.
The Yankees made ARod an offer. I figured it was at least the beginning of negotiations. |

And Boras [censored] another client.

Re: A-Rod opts out of contract
I really think by the time ARod signs with a new club, he will not make that much more money then he would have if he signed an extension with the Yankees. My guess is he really wasn't happy in New York or Boras thinks that the Yankees not negotiating with ARod now that he's opted out is BS.

[/ QUOTE ] Well, if he extends then he won't sign a 10 year deal so it won't be bigger than his last contract so Boras doesn't want it. I'm sure he thinks/told Arod the Yanks will have to talk. |

Re: A-Rod opts out of contract
I know it's unlikely, but I hope the Red Sox get him. Just to make Yankee fans mad.

Re: A-Rod opts out of contract
lol I couldn't imagine A-Rod playing for the sox

Re: A-Rod opts out of contract
Heyman also writes that the yanks will go with Girardi rather than Mattingly.

And it isn't as if they're debating between Arod and Santana or anything. The Yankees should resign him. |
Re: A-Rod opts out of contract
Yankees must now trade for Johan and sign him for 6/150 AFTER A-Rod fails to get his 10 year deal. That would send a nice big F-U to A-Rod and Boras.

Re: A-Rod opts out of contract
Also, the Yanks were getting subsidized by the Rangers, no reason they shouldnt have thrown gobs of money at AROD, the YES! network needs him, the Yankees need him and they blew it, nice job Yanks, nothing makes me happier.

Theo...feel free to make that offer if u want to. |
Re: A-Rod opts out of contract
A-Rod opted out because he wants to play for a winning team. Like the Cubs.

Re: A-Rod opts out of contract
CDS,
Why isn't Jeter a douche he is getting paid similarly to A-Rod isn't as productive and wouldn't leave his position when it would benefit the team. He also GIDPed in tons of key spots during the playoffs this year. |
