Nothing, he's meaningless". Maybe if the Yankee fans boo him enough he will ask for a trade.

If we dont sign Cole, which I would be happy if we dont(his delivery is the recipe for a devastating injury), then we get another 1st rder. Having 2 1st rd picks gives us more of a chance to get him, and Im sure Alex knows it. Maybe Alex is doing this so the Yankees have a chance at getting him?

If I remember correctly, I read an article last winter about how Arod took Alonso under his wing, and Alonso had been training with Arod for an offseason or two while Arod was back in Miami. In that light, I think Arod's offer makes a lot more sense. I don’t think Arod is making an offer to just any kid.

Well Captain Cupid is perfect for her because not only is he "Driven" from Avon, but he's also got an "EDGE" Hey Jeter, You need to get your pipes cleaned after a long road trip that's perfectly understandable. But either fly your girl to NY or pick up the phone and have a pro come over. Come on dude it;snot like you're not playing your home games in Kansas. “He has to have drive.”
