The Yankees offered arbitration to Rodriguez. If he accepts, then he will have to sign with the Yankees. If not (more likely), the the Yankees would get two draft picks if he is signed by another team. The Yankees would only get these two picks if the other team finishes with one of the MLB's top 15 W-L records in 2008.
It's a good decision for the Yankees since it could result in them getting free draft picks if (or rather when) he declines.

The Yankees try to come returned decrease than the $189 million "cap" for 2014. Signing Swisher for 4 years and $50+ million does no longer help with that. be conscious how the Yankees have in basic terms been giving out a million-2 year contracts. yet you're no longer incorrect approximately Swisher, he's not a nasty participant. he's a robust run producer, he's going to hit 25 HR, power in eighty 5 runs, and function a .350+ OBP each year. yet on the turn ingredient he did no longer hit in any respect interior the playoffs for 4 years with the Yankees, and Ichiro is a participant who can provide the Yankees velocity and can positioned the bat on the ball particularly of surprising out plenty, and he's likewise a robust defender with a robust arm. and that they have been given Ichiro for much less money. So i assume the quick answer is that the Yankees do no longer p.c. to spend numerous money top now, it is why they did no longer re-sign Swisher.

The Yankees will never re-sign the ungrateful, disloyal, choking schmuck. Unlike some teams, the Yankees are discovering that having principles is a good thing.

The Yankees are going to offer him arbitration so they can get two draft picks when he signs elsewhere. If Arod signed with anybody, you would know about it.

He opted out of his contract with the Yankees and to resign him they have to come up with $350 million. So I don't think you have anything to worry about. Currently he is talking to other teams about possibilities.

no but the yankees offered him salary arbitration. if he rejects it, it obliges his new team to give up 2 draft picks to the yanks. it's seen more as a tactical manuver on the yanks' part more than a legitimate offer.

Bpras is selling A-Rod's services to the highest bidder. so far, only the Mets, Angels, Giants and Dodgers have expressed interest.
