Default Rumor: A-Rod to Cubs?

Saw this on yahoo. If this ends up being true, it's the deal of all deals.

Could make sense, Barry Bonds won't be resigned with the Giants next year and he will want a World Series ring. So the Yankees let go A-Rod, to free up some cash and sign Barry Bonds to get that chance of a World Series ring? But that my opinion.

Bonds would make a fantastic DH, but I can't see him duplicating the type of year that A-Rod is having right now. That said, they could have Bonds a whole lot cheaper than what A-Rod is going to be asking for, but the Yankees would still have to pay over 11 million for his services.

The only way Bonds will hit 50, let alone 40 homers is if he's a DH.

Bonds would perform well with that short right field porch in Yankee stadium.

I don't see the Cubs shilling out $30 million for A-Rod. Even more stunning, A-Rod's new contract is going to be DOUBLE the entire payroll of the Florida Marlins.

We don't want Bonds on the Yankees, and by the way, even if AROD leaves, we don't have room for him. Giambi is owed 24 million next year and he won't be an every day firstbaseman. We also have an extra outfielder.

Giambi (24mil), Damon (13mil), & Matsui(14mil) are all under contract for next season and all have had to play some DH this year.

1st Philips/Mientkiewicz/Giambi
2nd Cano
ss Jeter
3rd Arod/Betemit
lf Matsui/Damon
cf Cabrera/Damon
rf Abreu
c Posada/Molina
DH Giambi/Damon/Matsui

Sorry there is no room for Baroid in pinstripes. Pawn him off to Oakland we don't want him

The Giants won't be pawning him off, he's a free agent, he'll go where he has the best chance for a ring/most money...maybe not in that order. Who knows...Baroid might be able to play in New York alongside Rocketroid, A-Roid, Giambiroid, and Abreuroid.

I can't see Bonds playing for the Yanks. The Angels have more of a need for a DH.
