Far too many of them have swallowed the Yankee spin machine take on this and are villifying the best player in the game.<BR/><BR/>If the Yankees maintain their course of action, or rather inaction on A-Rod, they just might be repeating history. Harkening back to the time when the Yankees let Reggie go and they languished in 5th place. Not an auspicious way to close out Yankee Stadium nor open the new glamour palace.<BR/><BR/>The one hope is that King George instead of the bopsie brothers, Hank and Hal, makes a move to sign A-Rod and allows it to be his parting gift to Yankee fans. King George has stated that letting go of Reggie was one of his biggest mistakes. Letting go of A-Rod would make that look silly.<BR/><BR/>I now have a new site that I will be checking in on. Good solid reasoning.

There is absolutely nothing rational stopping the Yanks for filling the hole at 3B with the best player on the market.Kalel9https://www.blogger.com/profile/13592984199637816352noreply@blogger.com
