No more, ARod, please. Was that five day goodbye not horribly awkward enough for you? It’s over. Just go, man.

Does this severance package affect next years payroll for luxury tax purposes?

Unfortunately, his advisory salary for 2017 will count against the Yankees luxury tax.

No, the Yankees still have to pay the remainder of his contract but his rol as advisor is another contract. At least that’s what Hal said.

His Major League contract has been void. His NEW contract does not fall under MLBPA tax guide lines. It was purposely re-written so it wouldn’t fall under MLB Tax guide lines. He will be an employee of the Yankees Business and office Corp. which has no connection to the New York Yankees players and coaches Associated. Sir Alex will be paid millions to watch ballplayers make the ‘suggestion” on whether they’re playing the right position, or if they’re hitting or playing “UP” to the level they’re assigned to. It’s a scam, so his salary Doesn’t count against the luxury tax…

His remaining salary for 2016 and every penny of his 2017 salary will count against the Yankees payroll for luxury tax purposes. His contract wasn’t voided the players association would never allow that. The Yankees released him and as would be the same as any other player being released early from their contract they are 100% responsible. The special advisor role was to save arod the embarrassment of being released

Before making any assumptions as for year 2017 his latest games with Yankees should be analyzed, I agree with homework net. Anyway, I doubt they will let him go the next season.
