Being a yankee really didnt mean anything to him, it was all about the dollars for him....1 yr at 8 mill, and he left 2 at 14 from us, so basically one million more and hit the FA market next year....there is no guarantee the FA market would be better next year and he goes to a team that will have a hard time making the playoffs
imo cant blame yanks here

Well considering how big that park is, I don't see his numbers looking nearly as good as last years. Probably should have taken the 2 year 14 million offer from the Yankees because I don't see him making 6 million next year.

He was a mercenary when he came here, and he will leave a mercenary. It's ok, Carl Crawford looks better in pinstripes anyway. -Jitpal
