Why because to get A-rod was going to cost us Manny and we already had a 3B who won the batting title last year.
So, we were going to trade Nomar to get Ordonez, thats why.
Plus, Nomar was/is a free agent to be, who had turned down a huge contract already.
As for Manny, keep in mind the current regieme didn't sign him, it wasn't because they didn't want one of the best hitters in the game, it was they didn't want to pay him 22mil/year. It was a financial move.
Can't compare Theo/Co. to Duqette/Co.
