Would you want your favorite team to trade for A-Rod?


Recommended Posts

I wouldn't take A-Rod unless my team was paying him no more than 7 or 8 mill a year. He's not worth much anymore. He's too injury prone and too average when he's healthy.

 

And apparently isn't interested in baseball during game time.

If you could catch ARoid right, he could be your everyday 3B, and if the money was the same, you could have Frazier in LF. ARoid could use a change of scenery. If all things equal, and you could get him for 2 yrs at the same $ as Luddy, I'd take ARoid.

If im a national league team I pass on him. AL Team, maybe, that way you can at least rotate him in at DH now and then.

 

It seems to me that the pitching as a whole is better in the AL. So I think if he came to the NL, you would see him start playing much better again.

 

I know as Spindoc pointed out, I would love to have him if we could get him for the same money we would pay Ludwick. Then just move Frazier to left field.

If, as the original post stated, the Yankees are going to eat $80-90 million to unload him, you know they are going to ask for something in return. And my guess, as a Reds fan, is that asking price would simply be too high. As a smaller market club, we have to develop a lot of our talent (as opposed to going out and buying it)...so, I wouldn't want to deplete our farm system to make that trade, even if the Yankees made the money-part manageable...because you know they're not going to be content with Rolen, Cairo and Valdez in return.
