Pete Rose told Alex Rodriguez to sign with the Red Sox

This is interesting, Alex Rodriguez and Pete Rose are very good friends according to ESPN. Well actually, it's not THAT interesting because you would expect two great hitters to eventually meet and hit it off, regardless of if one of them is banned from baseball for life. The interesting part is that Pete Rose told A-Rod through a series of text messages that he should sign with Boston. Pete Rose: Got five reasons why you should go to Boston. Alex Rodriguez: Name em Pete Rose: 1. You'll win. 2. You can play shortstop until Mike Lowell leaves, and you love shortstop. 3. You'll hit behind Manny and in front of Big Papi. 4. You'll hit 800 home runs with that short porch. 5. The Red Sox fans will love you because you told New York to go screw itself.
