I'll do you one better. It's not an actual "rumour," but there's a scenario out of the New York Daily News that has
Nomar Garciaparra going to the Evil Empire to play second. That's right boys and girls,
Nomar Garciaparra! [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]

If there is one thing the A-Rod deal has taught us, it's that nothing is impossible now around the Yankees when they go after somebody. They have no budget and no conscience. And, clearly, are always ready to think outside the box. A-Rod is not just the best player in baseball now, he is one of the best players of all time. When he shows up on Opening Day, he will be the greatest righthanded hitter the New York Yankees have had since Joe DiMaggio. If the Yankees can go after him and get him, what's to stop them for doing the same with Nomar?

If The Boss ever pulls this off, MLB might as well get rid of half the teams in the league and let the big boys battle it out.
