A-Rod is huge for the local TV station, NESN would gain a lot from having him, especially having the eventual HR champ wearing your uniform would help as well money wise. So essentially the 300m/10 yrs figure is misleading much like the contract of Dice K was, as the team who scores A-Rod gains a lot long term with merchandising and TV deals.

I for some reason was being very short sighted thinking that A-Rod would be playing 3B or 1B. I somehow didn't even think about him as DH later on (Totally brain fart on my part). I don't know how much more value this brings, but definitely wasn't in any of my considerations.
