Alex Rodriguez for Albert Pujols…. who says no?

Sure, this is as far-fetched as they come, but wouldn’t both the Yankees and
the Angels have to think about this?

Alex Rodriguez currently has about $100 million left on his 10-year, $275
million contract that expires in 2017. Along with a $3 million portion of his
signing bonus due next January, he’ll receives salaries of $25 million in
2014, $21 million in 2015 and $20 million in both 2016-17. Plus, he’s still
owed about a third of his $28 million salary from 2013.

Albert Pujols, on the other hand, has about $218 million left on his
backloaded 10-year, $240 million contract through 2021. His salary jumps from
$16 million this year to $23 million next year and then increases by $1
million each season until he makes $30 million in year 10.

So, basically there’s a $120 million difference between the contracts. If
you equate A-Rod’s deal as being $100 million of completely dead money, then
it’s essentially taking on Pujols at $120 million for 8 1/3 years, a bit
less than $15 million per year.

At this point, that’s overly expensive. If Pujols were declared a free agent
today, no one is giving him $120 million. Maybe someone would take a chance
on him at $15 million per year for two or three years.

Except, for the Yankees, the math is actually a bit more generous. Pujols’
 deal, being worth $24 million annually rather than $27.5 million, would aid
the Yankees with the luxury tax and make it a little easier to come in under
the threshold in 2014 as they desperately want to do.

Frankly, I still think the Yankees say no. I expect Pujols to bounce back and
have a couple of better seasons than his 2013 campaign, but the last five
years of his deal are a killer. He’s going to make $140 million from ages
37-41. Plus, the Yankees already have Mark Teixeira presumably vastly
overpaid at first base. The swap would make a bit more sense if the Angels
kicked in the $20 million they’ve saved these first two years by backloading
the contract.

With all of the money they’d shed, the Angels would be foolish not to accept
the deal if it were proposed to them. After all, there’s the added bonus of
not having to pay Rodriguez while he’s suspended by MLB. And maybe he will
someday be ruled permanently disabled, at which point insurance would cover
80 percent of his salary.

And, no, I didn’t forget Pujols himself. He has no-trade protection and
almost certainly would say no to such a deal. Even if he were curious about
playing for the Yankees, it’d be quite the drag on his legacy if he were
traded straight up for the most toxic player in baseball.

有很多想像空間 但成真機率微乎其微吧
