A-Rod derangement syndrome

Ok, ok, Rodriguez was less than a class act in the manner in which he opted-out/opted in to his new Yankee contract (and, please, I don't want to hear how Boras "bungled" his way into a $270 million/10 year contract for his client), but Harvey Araton has clearly lost his mind.

Rodriguez has long been a money magnet and serial attention grabber, but now we are supposed to believe that Boras alone bungled Rodriguez’s second free agency fling? After Boras forced him onto the open market with Guantanamo-like tactics, human rights activists from Goldman Sachs had to intervene. Warren Buffett weighed in. If 11th-hour snags develop in the negotiations with the Yankees on a contract that reportedly could reach more than $300 million over 10 years, who’s on deck?


"Guantanamo-like tactics?" Did he waterboard Hank Steinbrenner? What. Is. He. Talking. About?
