That was classy of him to wait until the day the Red Sox win the World Series to make this announcment. /s

LOL .. and how ‘bout Boras leaving the
message on voicemail? Did it HAVE to
be done tonight ? The air must be pretty
thin up there, of not.

I think Boston would be more inclined to re-sign Lowell. Still, they could take A-Rod just to flip off the Yankees.
Popular destinations: Boston, Los Angeles Angels. Dark horse candidates: Chicago Cubs, Florida.

Many contracts expire when the W.S. is completed.
They’re not wasting any time.

he’d look great at SS with Lowell at 3rd
To: STARWISE
Being that the Cubs are in the process of being sold, it seems unlikely to me that they would make any move toward A-Rod.

I wonder if it'll be the Giants. That ball park on the Bay is pretty and all, but they need a big name star replacing Barry Bonds to keep that place filled.
To: AnotherUnixGeek
I’m a Giants fan, and I have some very mixed emotions about bringing in A-Rod. The Giants need to get younger and need a bat in the lineup that isn’t under the age of frickin’ 60. The rotation is fine, but I would like to get a closer or some help in the bullpen, which is something this team has lacked over the past few seasons.
(Hell, maybe Brian Sabean could get his long-awaited do-over and trade to get Joe Nathan back?)

After seeing on the news what (Hank) Steinbrenner had to say, why would anyone want to play for that idiot other than for money? A-Rod goes out and gives them an MVP season and all they do is heap slime all over him. Low class descends to no class. They need Manny Ramirez. I think they Yankees and Manny would be a perfect match.

I think not way too expensive of a flip off. The Red Sox ain’t
that dumb. Amen.

The Yankees are going to announce that Joe Girardi will be their new manager. He will evaluate the talent the team has and in short order get rid of the prima donnas and will help put together a talented young team in short order.
A-Rod is like many very good players that are a cancer to the team. It is a team, not an individual sport.

You belong in some nutso ward if you think the cheap turd that owns the Marlins will pay that much for this self absorbed pain in the rear.

Sounds like a perfect fit, a-rod and Mark Cuban. Two very big fat heads.

If he were 15 years older, the Pirates would take an option on him.

Boras has easily ticked off close to a third of MLB owners through past escapades. I wouldn't count the yankeees out quite yet, since they are only one a few that can afford him. Still I agree, am pretty surprised Boras would use this timing to shop his client in this manner.
My fearless prediction?.... I think he'll end up in L.A. (angels or dodgers)
