There's alot of rumors swirling that A-Rod's days in New York are numbered. Is there any chance New York trades him and if so, who in their right mind would pick up his contract?

Royals? :P

Somebody would take E-Rod if NYY pay good chunk of salary.

[Chuck Sims]

The idiots at ESPN are saying that but I doubt they will move him. At worst they use him as a DH. The NYY could move him to the outfield too.

Are there any specific reasons quoted for a possible move?

I heard his recent performance on the feild and his negative attitude are the two main reasons.

So, nothing new then.

Give it a month and they'll move onto something else - how about some "Manny to leave Boston" rumours?

The whole thing is definately media generated, but atleast it's a hot topic. I fully expect him to remain in New York.

The media wishes, but this simply is not going to happen.

I agree with you guys about this not happening but gotta confess I would love to see A-rod elsewhere and playing shortstop for a change...
Anyway, this is the lattest Ive read.
Believe it or just laugh it off...

Why would you make him into an outfielder ? Seems to me he was a pretty good defensive shortstop. Save the DH spot for a guy that doesn't belong on the field defensively.

i know the yankees like to spend money like crazy, but i can't see them eating that much money at all.
