A-Rod to Yankees???

ESPN.com - MLB - Yanks, Rangers have A-Rod framework: "The Rangers and Yankees have agreed to the framework of a deal that would send Rodriguez and much of the $179 million remaining on his landmark contract to New York for Soriano and a player to be named, three high-ranking baseball sources told The Associated Press, speaking on condition of anonymity.




Two sources said Texas agreed to assume about $67 million of what's left on Rodriguez's $252 million contract. The AL MVP also has agreed to defer some money by five more years -- pushing the last payment back to 2025
-- and at a reduced interest rate, one of the sources said.




Added together, the Rangers' savings 'could be $125 million,' that source said."
