ALEX RODRIGUEZ FOR YANKEES

Its official and Alex rodriguez is to play for New York Yankees again.Three-time American League MVP Alex Rodriguez decided Thursday to remain with the New York Yankees signing a 10-year multi-million dollar contract.

Financial terms were not revealled, but American media reported that the contract has a base value of 275 million dollars and includes incentives which could push the value of the deal over 300 million dollars.

Two months ago, Rodriguez opted out of the remaining three years of his then-record 10-year, 252 million dollars contract.

Yankees vice president Hank Steinbrenner said then that the club would not negotiate a new contract with Rodriguez.

But Rodriguez reached out to the Yankees two weeks later, a gesture which revived the negotiation process.This is a huge boost to the Yankees team and their franchise.
