hmm
I hope he is the manager. They can't announce it till after the WS, right?
i think buster olney reported today that they had decided on girardi. good choice, if it's true.0 -

boras had it written into drew's contract that the dodgers couldn't offer him arbitration if he opted out.
i believe the deal with a-rod was that the rangers (and then the yankees) couldn't offer him arbitration after his contract expired in 2010. but i'm pretty sure that this clause didn't cover a-rod opting out in 2007.0 -

I didn't know that Boras had that clause in Drew's contract.
If you're right, then the Yanks would definitely offer him arbitration.- Busted down the pretext

of course, i could be wrong. i don't remember the source of this info off the top of my head. we'll find out for sure soon enough...0 -
the tampering investigation should be interesting. i doubt they'll be able to prove anything, but it'll still be fun to see how it all plays out.0

That brings up an interesting survey. Who are your top 5 or 10 Yankees players in history?
I think Mattingly has got to be up there in the top 3.

hmm
how far do we go back? Like to the times of Ruth, or modern times only?
that's tough
If we're going back that far, to Yankees of all time, I think for a top 10 list, you'd' have to say,
Ruth
Joe Di
Gehrig
Maris
Reggie
Munson
Graig Nettles
Mattingly
Derek
and Mo
that's arguable though b/c some might think some of the pitchers were more valuable like Guidry and Catfish Hunter.. I don't know, it's tough to make a list. I think Ruth and Joe Di and Gehrig belong right up there
that's my top 10 anyway
Fun question, thanks"...like a word misplaced, nothing said, what a waste.."

That's a pretty good list. After I posted it occured to me that I should have specified all time or modern.

No Mattingly and A-Rod next year. That's gonna suck. I hope A-Rod doesn't go to Boston. I don't wanna see Manny, A-Rod, and Ortiz back to back. And Pettitte, Posada and Rivera might no come back. Rivera possibly. But I know Posada was upset they didn't want to renew his contract. He could possibly go to Texas. I hope George steps in.I miss igotid880

I find it odd that A-Rod would let it get out that he's opting out on the day of the World Series. Sort of a low class act to me. Wht do ya'll think?

Peace
but his agent actually made the announcement, didn't he?
the announcement came out as the game was ending, he probably figured the WS was about to be over so why not come out with it."...like a word misplaced, nothing said, what a waste.."

It seems every other generation or so the Yankees get a prima donna.
Mantle, Reggie Jackson, A-Rod....
