Game 4 of the World Series? That was over before it was over: As you can see I called the series int he 5th inning last night. Plus who cares about a World Series game played at Coors Field? That's not even really baseball. They should come up with some other term for the game played at Coors Field and they certainly shouldn't include the stats accumulated there among Major League totals. All Rockies hitters deserve an asterisk by their statistics.

On to more interesting news:

AL MVP Alex Rodriguez Will Not Be A Yankee Next Season.

Despite the fact that the Yankees were ready to offer him huge amounts of money, Alex Rodriguez has opted out of his Yankees contract. This is a move that the Yankees have said they will not tolerate. They have made it clear they will not join the bidding on A-Rod if he opts out of his Yankees contract and yesterday Hank Steinbrenner said "It's clear he didn't want to be a Yankee. He doesn't understand the privilege of being a Yankee on a team where owners are willing to pay $200 million to put a winning product on the field. I don't want anybody on my team that doesn't want to be a Yankee."

Now the question is where will A-Rod go? Perhaps he will take over for Barry Bonds in San Francisco? The Red Sox? Cubs? Angels? Mets?

One also wonders what big names the Yankees will go after to try and replace Rodriguez. Will they finally go after pitching instead of hitting?
