His comments were right on.

He basically said that this shows that ARod and his Agent, feel he is bigger then the game, and the World Series. Gammons stated that they could have easily waited till after the World Series was over to announce this, but being so selfish and self-aggrandizing they felt the need to put themselves over during the pinnacle of the baseball season. Gammons also made a point to allude to the fact that ARod has never been to the World Series, and maybe there is a reason behind that. I believe his last words in the statement were "buyer beware."

I found the actual quote;

"“What’s unfortunate here is the total disrespect for the game of baseball. This is the World Series. [Boston’s] Dustin Pedroia and Jon Lester are doing what Alex has never done: playing in a World Series game. And to want the attention on this day is kind of a sad commentary and it might be a bit of a ‘buyer beware,’ because, again, he’s never played in a World Series game…maybe there’s a reason.”

And the clip;
