Those are MVP caliber numbers for anyone on a winning team. I like that he took the money and wanted to play for a winning team. It's capitalism at it's finest. Arod puts asses in seat and help the Yankee gain a wider viewing audience. I'm a baseball fan, and he makes games exciting to see and gives them media even more reasons to talk about the Yankees. Steinbreiner is a genius. My ex gf loved when Arod went to the Yankees to play along side Jeter. I'm sure she alternating fantasies with thoughts of them while banging me
I'm all for an incentive based pay scale, but not if it's purely driven by stats. There are certain qualities that players bring to a team that aren't measured on the back of a baseball card.
