I don't think that the Yankess would be interested in A-Rod. In spite of
their deep pockets, I don't think that the Yankees would be willing to pay
A-Rod "rates" for a backup shortstop.
Garciaparra just turned 30. I don't think that A-Rod is much better than
Garciaparra (plus the fact the the Red Sox fans are in love with
Garciaparra). I don't see the Red Sox dropping him for A-Rod (including the
$170 million contract buy-out).

Tom,
Yeah, A-Rod and Jeter on the same team would make any quarterback
controversy pale---especially with the hypermedia coverage in the Big Apple.
But if the Red Sox got close to signing him, Steinbrenner might butt in and
get him just to spite the Sox.
But then again with $$$ like this even Steinbrenner might be scared
off.
I'd think the Red Sox would be a better fit---isn't NO-MAH
Garciaparra on the last legs of his contract?

Visionaries,
What does everyone think about the M's signing Ibanez?
Does this mean that there's no chance of bringing Cameron back? Or is
that already a foregone conclusion?
I had thought that since Ibanez had played first base on and off that
maybe he was being groomed to eventually replace Olerud.
I hope that Cameron comes back, but I guess the need for a consistent
outfield bat trumps that. Also, how about Randy Winn? His bat seems
consistent enough doesn't it?
Then there's the Carlos Guillen question? Think he'll stay at third so
that the M's can pursue Tejada?
So many questions!
