Relief Pitcher: Cardinals made offer to K-Rod

The Cardinals offered Francisco Rodriguez a similar three-year, $37 million deal to what he accepted from the Mets, reports the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

so, that should answer any questions about why the Mets went to three years, up from their initial two-year offer

In the New York Times, Ben Shpigel wonders what number Rodriguez will wear, since No. 37 and No. 57 are occupied.

for some reason, i was under the impression he would get, or choose, No. 75 or No. 25, though i’m not sure where i heard that
