Dollars, Not Jeers, Will Send Rodriguez Packing

I agree with Tim Marchman, that Alex Rodriguez best years may be behind him. His bat speed has noticeably slowed down, and he swung at more pitches, out of the strike zone, then ever before. His strikeouts were at a all time high. He may not hit 300 again. as far as his fielding, he does not have the instincts or quickness as say a Craig Nettles, to ever be a superb 3rd baseman with the Yanks. His throwing was erratic. And of course he keeps putting his foot in his mouth, when he makes a comment. I believe the pressure again of NY, will get the best of him, and he will opt out of his contract with the Yankees at the end of this season.
