And for the record....I believe the Yanks and Sox are both investing alot of time into young studs and will reap the benefits from them unless they do something stupid like trade them. I think the rivalry will be very healthy and strong for the next few years for sure. I know you yankee haters like to use the tired old argument about the Yanks signing high priced veterans blah blah but in case you haven't noticed for the past two years Cashman has been doing business differently. I don't get this venom from you Joe....you hate A Rod I get it....but the Yanks aren't idiots either. They need a third baseman and A Rod is the best out there. By signing him we don't have to give up Kennedy or Hughes. How is that a bad thing? He came to them and apologized. Boras is the asshole here not A Rod. A Rod knows he fucked up. If anything I actually have alot of respect for him now.....but I'll hold off on gushing over him until he actually signs and subtracts the 21.3 million he cost the team. If you can't get over that so be it. But I bet you anything Theo Epstein and any other baseball expert would tell you the Yanks are doing the right thing.
