Sources told the New York Daily News that Alex Rodriguez is "unlikely to ever wear the pinstripes again."
It sounds like a story leaked by the Yankees, who are doing all they can to get out of the $114 million that is owed to A-Rod over the next five years. "I don’t know why he would want to go through the pain of rehabbing and trying to play up to the caliber of player he was, and come back to a game where nobody wants him," said the source. "If he did that, he’d be a part-time player and presumably unable to achieve any of the incentive clauses in the contract or even the milestones."


PEACE

Mixed feelings.

2009 he just raped in the postseason.

2007 was one of the most monsterous offensive seasons by a player in a long ass time.

But to be honest, I will be glad when he's gone.

That contract was just... Obviously many saw that coming.

Can't wait to see what Albert does in a few years time.

Yay we signed Pronk B)

Could put up huge numbers if platooned properly(which I'm sure he will be as that's one of Girardi's strengths) and stays healthy(huge if there).

that story is bullshit

i read somewhere that there's like a 1% chance that the yankees will actually be able to void his entire contract

best case scenario is he decides to retire after 2-3 more years

Holy crap, we got Shawn Kelley for Abe Almonte? What a deal lol.

Turned a 4th OF to a solid middle reliever.

We felt sorry for breaking your spirits two years in a row. First Pineda, now no Felix.
