There's more to this baseball season than Ruben Gotay.

"There is always a lot of high-priced talent in the room, though the price tag is never his price tag."

We all know by now that the Rangers still pay approximately $9 million of ARod's salary.

Which means the Yankees pay ARod approximately $17 million.

Pettitte, Jeter, Giambi all drain the budget more than ARod does. Abreu, Matsui, and Damon aren't far behind.


You know what I say?

I say ARod guns the ball to first and completes the double play. I say ARod manages a sac fly against Looper. I say Torre has six rings, at least, if ARod was on those teams.
