why's that? :) if you're a boston fan or a yankees fan, it shouldn't make a difference unless the Twins meet one of them in post season (which wasn't going to happen with that team). during regular season play he has just as much chance of beating the Red Sox as he does the Yankees, so it's a...

just like Rafael Palmeiro :P

are the Twins really getting a better deal with the Red Sox or are they just sticking it to the Yankees? didn't the Rangers practically gave A-Rod to the Yanks just to piss of the Red Sox? after that whole negotiation fiasco? 8) "sure, we'll let you have ARod and pay for a third of his salary...

the Twins could easily call the Yankee's bluff. let the deadline pass and see if the Yanks still come knocking. the Yanks NEED pitching. anyways, Hughes and Cabrera is a pretty steep price, but Santana is still in his prime and a franchise player, not an almost-has-been big star. hopefully...

are the Red Sox seriously going to go after Santana?!?!? holy crap, imagine if they got him. BEST ROTATION EVER... though seriously, it's probably just posturing by the parties involved to get the best price out of the Yankees...

The Yanks need a setup guy. they got a bunch of starters and Rivera...

a while back there was talk that Santana might get traded to the Yanks. without Clemens and Petite, they NEED a star pitcher... though Chamberlain would be a big price to pay.

it'll be interesting to see what kind of opt-out powers each side will have for this contract:)

the voting wasn't really close though. i guess the 32 more innings pitched really stuck with the writers?

i agree about the long term, but over the next 5 years (max), i think most would take Pappy over Arod.

how much longer does Ortiz's contract run for? i'd bet most fans would rather have him than ARod. sure he's not good defensively, but who cares? he actually performs in the off-season. if Arod gets $$$, how much does Pappy get?

that's utterly ridiculous. but then i was floored when he got a quarter-billion.

as evil as Boras may be, he ain't stupid. i'm sure he know exactly what ARod could get on the open market. he wants his cut. if he thought the Yankees offer was the best, he would have let him know.

there's no way in hell the Jays would sign ARod :) and i'm pretty sure ARod wouldn't want to play here. anyways this could all be just a negotiating tactic. i mean, with Texas' $30 (?) million extra subsidy, there's no reason why the Yankees couldn't give $30 mill more than the next...
