Brian Cashman advised the New York Yankees not to retain Alex Rodriguez following the 2007 season, according to a report from Joel Sherman of the New York Post.

Cashman wanted to avoid paying exorbitant amounts of money to a player that was in decline in his mid to late 30's.

The advice was ignored for reasons having to do as much with future TV ratings on the team-owned YES Network as winning.
