The Yankees have been ousted from the postseason, but the saga of Alex Rodriguez continues.
Rodriguez told Peter Botte of the New York Daily News after today?s loss to the Tigers that he has no plans to waive his no-trade clause and intends to return to the Yankees next season.
?That?s correct. I will be back. I have a lot to prove.?
Bob Nightengale of USA Today reported this morning that while Rodriguez wouldn?t request a trade, he also wouldn?t stand in the way of a deal to another large-market team. Meanwhile, Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com reported this afternoon that the Marlins and Dodgers ?thus far seem far less than anxious to acquire? Rodriguez. Of course, a lot can change over the course of the offseason and we?re just getting started.
After posting a career-low .783 OPS in 122 games during the regular season, Rodriguez went 3-for-25 (.120) with 12 strikeouts during the postseason and lost playing time and at-bats to the likes of Eric Chavez and Raul Ibanez. The 37-year-old is still owed $114 million over the next five seasons, so the Yankees would likely have to cover a significant portion of his contract in order to make a deal feasible.
