Boras! Versus... Cashman! FIGHT!
According to today's Daily News, the Yankees have told A-Rod that he either signs an extension or seeks employment elsewhere. This is the smartest thing that they could have done. As I mentioned yesterday, the Yankees are the only team that can afford A-Rod, and it is now apparent that they know it. The Yankees are pulling a William Vickrey-esque game theory strategy by simply trying to avoid a sealed-bid auction for A-Rod. They're obviously willing to pay as much as any other team in baseball could offer (so basically, what the Angels could offer), but no more. Bravo, Brian Cashman, for making a stand against Scott Boras and all of his wacky antics.
