After the game, Pedro looked quite serious when he was saying that he was happy that he had the city of New York's attention when they were chanting "Who's your Daddy?"

Pedro is smart enough to know that the way to maximize his next contract is to bring the Yankees into the bidding, or at least create that perception. Even more so after the Sox' embarassing decision not to resign Clemens (even though at the time, it seemed like a reasonable decision--he either had lost something or was tanking for the final two years of his contract). Just the other day, Pedro was reported to say that he would give the Sox every chance to resign him. What better way to get a 4 year, $58m deal than to have Steinbrenner and Henry continue their pissing match? Without it, he probably gets 3 years $36m, tops.
