The Yankees Don't Have An A-Rod Problem; They Have A Yankees Problem
"The Yankees seem to have forgotten that they agreed to re-sign a then-32-year-old Rodriguez to a 10-year, $275-million deal after the 2007 season. They’re acting instead like the unfortunate victims of some unforeseen catastrophe ... The A-Rod deal wasn't some sort of crazy experiment gone bad. It was the Yankees' economic model in its purest form: secure the best talent today by wildly overpaying for their services tomorrow."
I still don't know why it's Weber instead of Aceves. Something to do with Aceves's options? Or are they still trying to beat some sense into him?
Webster might be trade bait where no one seems to want Aceves.
