    Last time Ichiro hit a walk off was in September 2009 against Mo.

    At about 1:30 am eastern on a Friday night. I was pretty drunk. For some reason I recall the game like it was yesterday.

    I don't think they should trade him. He might be gone next year. And we could get some draft picks. I don't trust Pineda yet

    I don't think they can get much for him. Maybe the Nationals.

    Not sure about the draft picks. Wonder if they would make him a qualifying offer. Benefit is only a 1 year contract, but he may take it to try and have a bounce back. The inconsistency is brutal.

    Someone had him hit 96. Will Carroll said he was getting messages from people at the game and they were giddy. I also saw a tweet that he wasn't getting a lot of swings and miss but I think all his K's were on them so who knows how accurate that is. Either way, good news.

    Once he needs to be activated, he will definitely be spending a few weeks in the minors to get the year they missed back.

    Alex Rodriguez has 114 million reasons for telling the world that he has the green light to play baseball games again.

    According to sources close to the ongoing drama surrounding the star-crossed Yankee third baseman, Rodriguez and his advisers are so concerned that Major League Baseball’s drug posse is quickly closing in on him that they have racheted up the timetable for him to return to game action.

    Once he’s back playing in rehab games, the sources say, he could then claim he is physically unable to perform because of the serious hip injury he is recovering from, “retire” from the game, and still collect the full amount of his salary — $114 million over the next five years.

    Rodriguez is a shell of his former MVP self on the field in recent seasons.
    “It’s all about him getting his money and not losing it to suspension,” one source close to the situation told the Daily News. “He knows he’s never going to the Hall of Fame. All that’s left for him is to make sure he gets his money — all of it.”

    One way to do that is for Rodriguez to return to game action, find he can no longer perform up to his standards, then retire before he’s hit with a suspension without pay. A player who retires because he is physically unable to perform, even if he’s later suspended, would still get the full amount of his contract.

    Assuming we pick up jeters option we would be around 70mm in contracts including arbitration eligible players, add 20 mill for cano and we still have 100mm to spend.
