Very very interesting indeed....it would be amazing if A-Rod eventually agreed to a below market deal with the Yanks to help subsidize the lost money that NY would have received from Texas on his previous deal. And it would be fabulous to see Boras get shafted....

Quote:

NEW YORK -- The door may have cracked open again for Alex Rodriguez and the Yankees, and according to a report, the All-Star third baseman is the one pushing it open.
Citing a source with knowledge of the situation, the New York Daily News reported on Wednesday that Rodriguez and the Yankees have been discussing a surprising deal that would keep the likely American League Most Valuable Player in pinstripes after all.

But the Yankees, who were rebuffed when they asked repeatedly to meet with Rodriguez after the season, have one request of their own. According to the report originally published on the newspaper's Web site, the Yankees have no plans to negotiate with Rodriguez's agent, Scott Boras.

"We will not negotiate with Scott Boras," a club source told the Daily News. "He cannot be in the room."

I can see why he'd want to come back. The fans and media have treated him very well, and they're obviously the favorites in the American League next year. Glad to see A-Rod is about more than the money.

It's crazy how just last week it looked like A-Rod was just as good as gone. It appears he didn't talk to the Yanks with Boras.

Looks like he agreed to a 10 year/$275 million outline. He will also recieve millions more if he breaks the home run record.

Im so glad that he has stayed. The Yankees will have to keep him to seriously challenge for the World Series.

All in all, Arod has done well for all 3 clubs he's played in, Mariners, Rangers, and now Yankees, but oddly enough he mostly fits on higher class teams IMO
