Bor-Ass

Good 'ol Scotty did the unthinkable last night during the world series. The announcement that A-Rod will no longer be a Yankee by opting out of his contract. A-Rod has every right it's in his contract. What is dumbfounded is the timing. There shall be no baseball news during the world series except that of the world series (santo even had to wait a couple of weeks one year to get a leg amputated).
That's the only news Santo ever made in October.

Anyway, the guy does not want to be a Yankee. If not them, who? Nobody will pay him the money he thinks (and what scotty thinks) he can command on the market. Maybe the Red Sox are the only other besides the Yankees who can afford him. Do the Red sox want to become what they hate the most? I don't think they can or want to. It is very clear that Lugo will not be back next year-what a hack he has become. At least he keeps his head down when he misses every pitch. They can pay him in furniture futures courtesy of Mutual of Omaha.

As for the Cubs making any moves towards A-(i fell on a) Rod it is out of the question. The trade the commish denied the cubs and fish-citing that he does not think the new owner should incur any debt-would have brought dontrelle willis and some of their younger studs for Jacque Jones and possibly felix Pie. Not too sure who else was involved, but I have sources very close to the cubs.
Unfortunately, none of them can smell the stink from within.
