If it's a situational thing (the Yankees win the WS) give your reasons and such.

Well, if he continues to play like he has so far for the rest of the year then he should leave because teams will be willing to fork up more money then he is making. There have already been rumors that the Texas Rangers are interested in getting him back and are willing to pay. He should at least go out and test the water, teams will be willing to pay up.

I think New York is the only place where A-Rod will make the most money. If he has a great season (as he is already) George might want to keep him. But the Yankees haven't won in a long time and the AL East is getting stronger every year. A-Rod might just walk. Ring or not.

He should stay with the Yankees. He is the fastest player to ever reach 500 home runs and the Yankees are the team with the most money. So if he is smart, he will stay with the team that can pay him the most plus, they have alot of talent on the team, so they can make a run at a championship.

If he's looking for money and a constant chance at the World Series, he should. His start this season has never been paralleled, which is a sign this could be where he belongs. Although he was actually getting paid more on the Rangers, I'm not sure many teams other than the Yankees could afford him. I despise that damn club, but you cant argue with the game he is raining on everyone right now, and i know my A's couldn't afford him.

If A-Rod was to leave the NY Yankees and go to another baseball team, the total budget of that other team may well be effected and that other team would not be as powerful as the Yanks.
Its all about budget and how much teams are will to put up to win ball games. If an owner spends too much on one player, it lessens the prospects of picking up other quality players as baseball is team sport.
A-Rod would be foolish to jump ship.

There's no way A-Rod should leave the Yankees. No sane person should pass up $27 mill guaranteed for an uncertain future. Baseball is the same game wherever you are. See the ball, hit the ball. A-Rod is robotic (professional) enough to realize this. Like Rasheed Wallace (CTC baby!), I don't think he cares where the money comes from.

As a Yankee fan, I would like to see him stay and collect his $80 million. If he decides to check out the waters of free agency, I'm sure he will get a bigger contract and the Red Sox will be right there with their check book out, but the Yankees won't. We've won without him and will again. Great if he stays and good luck to him if he goes.

Well, as a Red Sox fan, I'd have to wish for A-Fraud to stay right there in the Big Apple, because as long as he's there, the Yankmees will suffer "the Curse of A-Rod", and not be capable of winning the World Series again.
A-Fraud is having a banner year so far -- note how he's waited until his **option year** to finally perform up to his reputation. He's building up his "legend" so that Scott Boras can wangle him yet another mega-contract, so he can go somewhere else and be a loser for them, the same way he has been in Seattle, Texas, and now New York.

you experience ARod won't win a championship with the Yankees? and that's in step with what? this is 25 guy roster and pitching regulations in the positioned up season. Will he be traded? No. he's untradeable for many motives.

HE SHOULD LEAVE!!!!!!!!! NY hates his 40 HR and 130 RBI. They would rather have another light hitting Jeter type to fall in love with. The NY fans seem to love those 12 HR and 70 RBI seasons Jeter puts up. Maybe they should trade A-rod to the Red Sox for Coco Crisp. Then they would have two Jeters!!
