    Was Today A-Rod's Last Day As A Yankee?
    Yes.

    No way this guy is back next year.

    He's not the only one either.

    I can see Swisher gone too.

    ARoid and Cashman can say whatever they want

    Just saw ARoid say he will be back 100%

    Bullshit

    No chance

    He is gone

    Swisher 100% gone

    He was gone before his pitiful playoff performance. That just sealed the deal.

    Lots of guys will be gone

            Got to figure he's gone. He does have a no-trade clause, but I'm sure they'll figure a way out of it.

            I'm just not sure who's going to take him if it isn't Miami.

                    yankee fans love the idea of trading arod until they see who is on the FA market. better off moving jeter to third and find a elite defensive SS.

                        yankees don't really have a good farm system.

                        but no doubt yankee fans think they can trade arod and get a haul of actual prospect in return and a valuable 3rd baseman.

                          Yankees have a great farm system but the A+ prospects are mostly pitchers and catchers. Not a lot of position players

                          Any Yankee fan with a fukkin brain knows they arent getting dikk for ARoid. Not sure what you meant by that

                          You a Pirates fan?

                            Yanks have zero top prospects at AAA or AA

                            AAA 3b last year

                                yeah banuelos had tommy john. it is questionable where he can start or not anyway. and that betances has really not developed at all.

                                best play by far is gary sanchez but he is still pretty far away.

                                no real projected impact players.

                                    Definitely not getting their money's worth out of these aging already rich over paid asses. Their foolish for signing A Rod soo long term. Got to stay young and hungry, superstars are replacable, they will reload with a young star or 2 in the off season.

                                    Seems like A Rod suffers from lack of steroids as well. He should come to Miami, party 24/7 with the hotties in sobe, snort yeyo off the titties of Brazilian and Columbian 10's.

                                        a rod has done alot for the yankees organization over the years, they can't just dump his contract

                                          Bronxer stop wasting your time

                                          We both have been saying the same thing all week

                                          Non Yankee fans just love to bash Yankee fans and think we are all stupid

                                          They act like we think we are gonna have Wright or Miggy

                                          But say we do trade Arod your telling me the New York Yankees will have Robert Lyerly starting at third on Opening Day?

                                          They can always over pay for youk too. I wouldnt want him but dont act like the yankees wont have a major league thirdbaseman next yr if/when they trade AROID

                                          Hell they can call up the Padres and say who else you want besides Nova for Headley? Banuelos? Romine? Hall? Marshall?

                                          Yankees have plenty of pitching prospects that could be dealt for the right price. If they need a thirdbasman they will get it.

                                            two things

                                            a) i've been hearing many yankee fans themselves saying that yanks won't be spending like they used to. And AntiFoil and I both figured out already that they will be going over the salary cap and paying 40% extra on every dollar they over-spend. They are in a tough financial situation to pay all their stars under contract, give arb raises, and aquire about 8-10 FA's. Add into that, unloading A-rod and maybe getting a team to pay 6-8 million of his contract. AND overpaying for a guy like Youk?????

                                            b) Yanks farm system is nothing spectacular and many of their "studs" had very bad years. They might come into 2013 with a farm system ranking of near 20.

                                              headley could and probably will be traded this off season, but as bad a FA is at every position, the padres can probably charge a premium for him. then even wait until mid season if they don't get the offer they are looking for.

                                              nevermind i just read the new padres owners are looking to keep players and even get in the FA market to make a play for next season.

                                                    I hate to tell you guys this but A-Rod is still an above average MLB player. True, he had his worst year but was hurt. And true, even being an above average MLB player, his salary is inflated but that's not his fault, that's the Yankees front office's fault. I think he'll be back with the Yankees next year and put up much better numbers. Guy is still extremely talented.
