No arguments here my friend. But in this case it'd be incredibly foolish.

Very much so. $30 mil a year is worth it now, but when he gets old and playing with a cane, then those final 2-4 years are gonna be a drain on payroll.

Sure, he's the best hitter in baseball (and it's not all those close), but the fact of the matter is he doesn't play an important defensive position (unlike A-Rod, who's a gold glove winning SS & 3rd baseman) and that has to factor in, doesn't it?

I guess he could always be the DH for the Yankees.
