Where Does A-Rod Want To Play?

According to reports, Alex Rodriguez is telling friends he wants to play for Boston. That was clear in 2003 when he was willing to lower the value of his contract as part of a trade to the Red Sox, the MLBPA refused to allow him to do that and he was eventually traded to the Yankees.

The question now is if he indeed does want to play in Boston, how much will he demand to play here.

He reportedly asked the Yankees for #350 Million over the next 10 years. Would he be willing to go less to play in Boston? Say $300 Million over 10 years?

The Epstein doesn't seem interested in talking about the matter publicly, but he surely has or will have an initial conversation with Scott Boras before the end of the first day of the GM Meetings that started today.
