No...I meant that A-Rod moved over to 3rd base when he signed with the Yankees, after playing shortstop for Seattle.

So...when he signs with any other team, will they keep him at 3rd base or will he ask them to put him at the shortstop position.

I recall Ripken was NOT happy when Davey Johnson moved HIM to 3rd and then put Mike Bordick at SS...so I was wondering if A-Rod felt the same way.

$25 million per year was obviously enough for him to swallow his pride and defer to Jeter in New York, but would he do the same any place else?

Not to be nasty to you but I don’t care where A-Rod plays or what team he plays for. He a A** H*** and I doubt the Red Sox would go after him.

I would guess he would stay at 3rd, he's always been kind of big for a SS. Being slightly older and bigger now and not playing it for 4 years he might not be quick enough anymore to go back to SS.

Add the Mets to the rumors of who might be going for him
