They are prepared to squabble with A Rod over essentially $9 million, $6 million in salary and $3 million hit on the luxury tax, when the team is worth $3.2 Billion.Daniel Burchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04212584396848733519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676591017018865408.post-32473996758743716662015-04-28T19:30:23.448-04:002015-04-28T19:30:23.448-04:00Daniel, I think if there is "Bronx on fire on...Daniel, I think if there is "Bronx on fire once again" as you put it. I think it will be because the Yankees are the ones that are the ones at fault, not A-Rod! A-Rod has done nothing but played baseball and not once has he done anything but help the team win games. He is not the one that brought up anything about the bonus, nor has he said anything about it. The Yankees will lose in arbitration and make their own Black-eye, not A-Rod. When he hits that 660th home run believe me, the fans will and are buying his stuff and will later.<br />Just my opinion!Ken Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07134936968221887101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676591017018865408.post-55256209248191850602015-04-28T19:19:10.102-04:002015-04-28T19:19:10.102-04:00I for one don't like what A-Rod did with the t...I for one don't like what A-Rod did with the talent he has and had, in fact, I hate it and will never forgive him for doing something he need not have done. The Yankees had a HARD drug user band time and again, but kept bringing him back, we had Andy and Jason both were forgiven and there were others we have no knowledge of using PEDs. <br />A-Rod has talents that are the best I have seen since The great Mickey Mantle and I have seen them both from their first days with the Yankees. <br />The guy let his Ego get in the way of his God-given talents, he is not the first nor will he be the last. But his talent is what the Yankees are paying him for, not his privet life. He is clean now and still producing at 39 years old and having a year plus off...how many could do that? <br />One can hate the man but love the Talent and he is a Yankee...that is enough for me! <br />He has done more than enough to pay for his crime...and those that want him banned from baseball, get a life, one would have to ban about a 3rd of the league's best players from the last 6 years. Bonds, McG, Sosa, Big Papi, just to start. <br />Pay the man what you out bidded yourself for, he is showing more class than the Yankees have in the last 4 yearsKen Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07134936968221887101noreply@blogger.com
