it's official, he is no longer a yankee... however, who will pay him as much money?  The Red Sox?  lugo is paid 9 mil, which is WAY too much for his services.. i can see how a-rod would get outta NYC, but boston is just as critical of its players as new york.. either way, i hate both the yankees and the red sox (red sox more).

if the yanks get girardi, i think they start focusing on the farm system and building that way.  i can only see a-rod in boston for that kind of money.. however, i wouldnt be surprised if he took a paycut and went out west.

I knew he'd opt out... stupid A-Rod.

And I also want Girardi, he was there during the Golden Years.  I just don't know how much the players would like it because he's not much older than some of them and he even played with a few.

It's going to be a hard year next year, but I'm ready to face it.  Go Yanks!

A-rod will take a serious pay cut, and will want to play back in his hometown of Miami. The fish will rise again!  ;D

I can see that happening, but i don't think it will take a serious pay cut to make it happen....

BUT if it does...

What do you do with Miggy and Hanley?

I'd take EITHER of those 2 over Arod any day of the week.

3rd - Miggy

SS - Hanley

DH - in interleague play Arod  ;)

Wrong.

A-rod negotiating with Yankees directly, looks to take less than the original offer they gave him.

Guess the market for A-Rod was pretty weak.  Boras looks like a chump now with his $350M demand.
