And the highest offer prior to opt-out was 8/225.
Tell me again, what deal is he currently signing?

The Yankees wanted to start at that. It doesn't mean they weren't going to go higher and then did only because Boras was the agent. It's the Yankees. Since when do they low-ball offers to players they want? This is the same team that gave a 44 year old pitcher a $28 million contract to pitch half a year. Look at what Posada and Mo are getting. You are naive if you really think A-Rod would have gotten a worse deal than he did.
