How many of you believe this post season will be a good one for Arod?

Then put the mastermind of the organization Al Hrabosky in the GM seat...

The Cards will crumble and sign Eckstein again, you and I know it. We will also have Rolen at third next season and an unhealthy Edmonds patrolling CF. A-Rod fantasies are just that. Cards need a pitcher, and unles A-Rod can throw 6 innings and keep it under 3 runs...ditto this miserable season.

Hell we could give them Eckstien and that broke down piece of Rolen and he could patrol everything between 2nd and 3rd

What's really needed is for Tim McCarver to become Yanks GM. He's not only trade Rodriguez for Eckstein, but probably Abreu for Darin Erstad (if the Cards could get him).

As a Cardinals fan, I propose trading David Eckstein straight up for Rodriguez. All we ever hear is how "clutch" Eckstein is, therefore he must be better than Rodriguez (at least in the magical fairy tale world of Joe Morgan).

C'mon, what do you say, Yankees?

Who cares? If he hits .102 - he still had a great season. I wouldn't mind seeing him in a Cardinals uniform.

We would like ARod with the Nationals and give him Shortstop...but seriously I hope he stays with the Yankees and he has a chance for amazing history there!

Good luck to him in the Post-season!!!

There has been alot of media talk that Arod will leave for another team. I was at Comerica last year when he caved in. Horrid series. He has never stopped producing all year. That said, I am surprised people pitch to him. If he chokes in the postseason this year, he will be rightfully labled a postseason choker like Bonds, etc, and probably be gone.

Miss Pay-Rod will do her usual Choketober swoon, and the Yankee$ will be home after the first round...if not, then the terrorists win!

I hope Arod sign's with the Pirate's. Wishful thinking on my part. It would be great to see what he could do for my Pirate's. It will never happen unless Mark Cuban buys the Pirate's. I wouldn't mind seeing him in the N.L. that way I could see him play more.

I will say this: If Arod leaves NY, soley for more money, then I will lose respect for him. He's says he's not about the money, however, if he leaves for more money, then I believe it's what's more important to him.

When has Arod proven that it is not about the money? It is about the money and if someone is paying more he will leave. Yankee fans have been brutal to Arod for how long and now this year he is now a true Yankee, give me a break. I think the years of torment in New York have taken a toll on Arod and unless he has a Jeter like post season then they will be all over him again and he will leave.

How about this scenario game one of the post season and Arod goes 1-4 and makes a error. What will the papers say then!

Don't forget in the playoffs he is facing the best of the best.

MLB rules prohibit a player from having ownership in a team or having anything built into a contract giving him ownership down the road.

The Cubs story was just a story.

Arod has a solid relationship with Pinella from both their days in Seattle and that adds fule to the speculation that he is heading to ChiTown.

What's all this talk about the Cubs? I can't believe Arod would go to a National League Team.

I hope he stays a Yankee.

I will say this: If Arod leaves NY, soley for more money, then I will lose respect for him. He's says he's not about the money, however, if he leaves for more money, then I believe it's what's more important to him.

For myself, I would take less just to wear the uniform of a New York Yankee.

There was talk that Scott Boras has been having discussions with a group that is gonna submit a bid to buy the Cubs and are offering Arod an ownership stake as part of his contract.

Arod will have a fantastic post season.

He is not going anywhere. This year, he finally relaxed and has been accepted by the fans. I think that he knows his best chance of getting a ring is here with the Yankees. New stadium next year, a powerful line up........nope, Arod is a Yankee until he retires.

I hope you're right and I'm keeping my fingers crossed. It's the only place to be. Look how many Red Sox players secretly want to come to NY to be a Yankee (lol). Funny, but true.
