Alex met with the Steinbrenner family and other Yankee officials on Wednesday and let it be known that he wishes to remain in the Yankee organization. Officials are confident that an agreement can be drawn up.

So much for the Yanks sticking to their guns and not negotiate with A-Rod if he opted out of the original contract

Maybe we can get Joe Torre back! I hope it works out with A-Rod. For my money he is about the top all around ball-player in the majors right now. I hope Joe Girardi will be ok handling all the young pitchers and continues to be the good manager that he has been in his short managerial career. My nephew is Girardi's son's little league coach and says he is really a nice guy-great with the kids. LET'S GO YANKEES! Gee, that felt good. Sorry, Barry!

New York papers almost crucified A-Rod for the turn-around! What did anyone expect when you have good old George pulling crap all the time...hire...fire...hire...fire......nutz to it all!!!!

I guess being a Yankee fans blinds you to reallity. Can't you see the only reason A-Rod came crawling back is because the money his agent promised wasn't out there.
Oh I want to be a Yankee for life. My agent miss lead me. I'm so sorry. Please please take me back. Pretty please Boo hoo Boo hoo
I will admit he is a good ball player ( regular season only) What makes me sick is he and the team went back on their words

I agree Barry, A-Rod tested the waters and found it dry out there. If the Yankees want him back it should be for less than his old contract...other teams can't even match that or let him sit out a season.

I totally agree Barry. A-Rod was reading his own press and believed it. Wonder how George will treat him now? Probably like the lost sheep and the guy does not deserve it!!!

Looks like the final deal is going to be 275 million for 10 years.

Poor A-Rod. A lousy 27.5 mil each year for ten years. My heart bleeds for him.
