New York Yankees do before deciding
where he’ll play next year.
The free-agent ace isn’t close to
making a decision on where to sign,
a person close to Martinez said Tues
day on condition of anonymity.
Martinez is likely to wait until the
Yankees determine their level of in
terest, which could hinge on whether
they acquire Randy Johnson from
Arizona in a trade that could send
Javier Vazquez to the Diamondbacks.
The Mets, trying to make a splash
in the free-agent market, offered a
$37.5 million, three-year contract
last weekend, an agent with knowl
edge of the proposal said, also on
condition of anonymity. The offer
contains an option for a fourth sea
son that could make the deal worth
$50 million over four years, the
agent said.
Boston has offered a two-year
deal to retain Martinez and must de
cide by Dec. 7 whether to offer
salary arbitration, which would ex
tend the window for the World Se
ries champion Red Sox to re-sign
him until Jan. 8.
Martinez’s agent, Fernando Cuza,
would not comment on the Mets’
proposal, which was first reported
Tliesday in several New York and
Boston newspapers.
Yankees owner George Steinbren
ner met with Martinez in Tampa,
Fla., on Nov. 18, and Martinez also
met in Florida with New York third
baseman Alex Rodriguez.
But the Yankees’ primary interest
in recent days appears to be Johnson,
the 41-year-old left-hander who
would prefer to leave the rebuilding
Diamondbacks and play for a con
tender. The Yankees and Diamond
backs have been discussing a trade
involving the five-time Cy Young
Award winner for several weeks.

Roetman: Willingham better
off coaching somewhere else
Continued from page 13
any other school.
With those in charge wanting any
reason to get rid of Willingham, the
savvy head coach worked his magic
during his first season and led the
2002 Irish to a 10-3 record, including
a trip to the Gator Bowl.
His next two seasons weren’t as
successful, however, as the Irish
went 5-7 and 6-5 respectively. De
spite featuring a record similar to
Davie’s (21-16) after three seasons,
Willingham wasn’t allowed to prove
himself during the final two years of
his contract. If that doesn’t sound
like a blatant attempt to dismiss a
coach during a time of convenience,
I don’t know what does.
Willingham’s firing leaves UCLA’s
Karl Dorrell and Mississippi State’s
Sylvester Croom as the only two
black head coaches in Division I-A
football. There is something seriously
wrong with that.
While part of me feels bad for Will
ingham and the way he got hosed,
the rest of me rejoices as he is now
able to take a job where he is wanted
and more likely to succeed.
Notre Dame lost a great head
coach Tliesday.
Fortunately, that means Willing
ham will end up in a better place.
