Don't Let the Door Hit Ya

Brian Cashman addressed the A-Rod situation with a prepared statement and possibly a veiled shot.

"I received a message from Scott Boras last night informing me that Alex Rodriguez formally opted out of the final three seasons of his contract," Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said in a statement released Monday. "We always understood that it was his contractual right to do so.

"We expressed our interest in keeping him in pinstripes, and requested the opportunity to convey those feelings to him directly with the Steinbrenner family in an open, face-to-face dialogue.

"Alex was a key part of our success over the last four seasons, and I appreciate having the opportunity to work with him. I wish Alex, Cynthia and their growing family the best of luck in the future. I only wish we could have raised a championship trophy together during his time here, which was the ultimate goal we all shared."
