It is widely believed that after his production over the past 7-8 years (and especially this year) ARod and his agent, Scott Boras, can get a $30million per season contract. Realistically, he could sign another 10 year K for $250-$300 million if he opts out now.

That's a lot of gauranted money over 10 years, if he should get hurt or if his production declines.

I think if New York offers a contract in the $25-30 million mark, ARod will resign... but I dont think ARod likes it enough to walk away from millions just to play in New York.
