White Sox one time! [/ QUOTE ] Also, does this mean that Texas is off the hook for the rest of what they're paying the Yankees? |

Re: A-Rod opts out of contract
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] Ya but Jeter doesn't cause as many headaches as Arod. And he has come threw occasionally in big spots. I honestly can't really recall any huge hit Arod ever came up with in the playoffs short of a homerun in the series vs the Twins. Giambi has been more money than Arod in big spots. I know I know...its sample size but what if in two years into his new 8 year 35 million per deal he's still running bad? Do u think the Yankees want to go thru that ordeal? Let some other team go thru the headache [/ QUOTE ] This post severely hurts my head. [/ QUOTE ] take some advil |

Re: A-Rod opts out of contract
Anyone blaming the Yankees for this/saying it is their fault is incredibly retarded.
They opted out because they wanted to opt out, not because they received a bad offer. They are calling the Yankees bluff, and hoping other teams drive up the price. This is a power play by Boras, and the Yankees really don't have any blame in it. |

Players choose him specifically for that reason. |

Re: A-Rod opts out of contract
The market value of ARod is much different for each team. The Yankees, with the YES network, value him the most.
Kudos to Cashman, if he sticks to his guns. |
