Palladino: Smarmy A-Rod May Be Outdoing Himself
It seems like every time the Yankees get a bit of bad news, Alex Rodriguez is somehow lurking in the background.
Watch CBS News
It seems like every time the Yankees get a bit of bad news, Alex Rodriguez is somehow lurking in the background.
A day after his 39th birthday, Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter has taken another stride forward in his comeback from a broken left ankle by running outdoors for the first time in two months.
On Tuesday, Alex Rodriguez tweeted that he was medically cleared to play in games. We all know how the Yankees GM responded. Now there's reportedly a twist...
This is not how the Yankees were supposed to go to battle, using 41 players in the first 77 games.
So why were A-Rod's rehab tweets a bigger deal than those of Mark Teixeira or Curtis Granderson? Listen to all the audio from a strange day in Yankee-land.
"Ninety-nine times out of 100, I roll with it pretty good," Brian Cashman said. "I didn't roll with this one well at all. I popped. I sounded off. Reality TV at its best."
You could see Cashman's anger rising like a thermometer over the last few years. He was ardently opposed to giving A-Rod a new contract of any kind in '07, much less the mammoth extension bestowed upon perhaps the most polarizing player on Earth.
"You know what, when the Yankees want to announce something, (we will)," Cashman told ESPN. "Alex should just shut the f--- up. That's it. I'm going to call Alex now."
Guess who's the latest athlete to join Twitter? None other than Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez, who just so happens to be one of -- if not the -- most disliked athletes in all of sports.
The Yankees' third baseman, coming back from hip surgery in January, hit a ball to the base of the center-field fence and another on the warning track in left center off a minor league right-hander on Monday as he continued taking simulated at-bats.
Here comes A-Rod. The embattled slugger could start seeing action in rehab games as early as next week, according to multiple reports.
Alex Rodriguez's attorney, David Cornwell, says MLB's intel on the shuttered Florida anti-aging clinic is "irreparably tainted."
The good news is that the Yankees are just 3 1/2 games out of first place. The troubling news is that they're just four games out of last.
Jeter took 21 swings on Wednesday at the Yankees' minor league complex. He looked comfortable at the plate, hitting balls to all fields.
According to Porter Fischer, Yankees slugger Alex Rodriguez called Anthony Bosch to Detroit during last year's ALCS to help him fix his swing.
Yankees general manager Brian Cashman says he's leaning toward putting Teixeira on the DL. Cashman spoke on a conference call on Monday, an off-day for New York before it hosts the Los Angeles Dodgers in a two-game series.
There's an advantage to all this. More beach time for the fans, who will be unencumbered by such mundane things as division and wild card races.
Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter resumed hitting and fielding drills Friday for the first time since mid-April, a day after receiving medical clearance to increase his rehabilitation program for a broken left ankle.
From the moment that spring training opened until today, the Mets were pegged to be bad and the Yankees looked like a team that would struggle to reach October. Three months later, that's exactly who they are.
There was a team interested in acquiring Alex Rodriguez after last season, prior to the Yankees disclosing his hip injury and long before the Biogenesis scandal, according to the New York Times.
As the sport presents the bad guys to you via suspensions over the next few months, don't forget the folks who oversaw the actions in the past and did nothing until it was too late.
Bottom line is this—A-Rod will no longer be considered among the greatest players ever, and he will not be in the Hall of Fame, as a Yankee or anything else.
Everyone seems sure that Anthony Bosch will just show up and testify. How can this be? Why would Bosch incriminate himself?
Meanwhile, Commissioner Bud Selig said MLB's "very comprehensive" probe proves that baseball has the toughest drug policy in professional sports.
Alex Rodriguez broke his silence Thursday in a statement: "Myself and others are being mentioned in a media report before the process is even concluded."
