They say one picture is worth a thousand words. At Arm and Hammer Field in Trenton, this picture from Mike Lupica’s column in the New York Daily News says it all.
How do you feel about Alex Rodriguez in light of the recent impending suspension...
Trenton Thunder fans may have witnessed history as it appears Major League Baseball has made up its mind concerning the punishment it plans to dole out to Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez.
Alex Rodriguez's road back to the Bronx and the Yankees starting lineup goes through Trenton as a decision looms over his future as a major league baseball player.
A person familiar with the Yankees' deliberations says the team intends to discipline Alex Rodriguez for seeking a second medical opinion on his injured leg without New York's permission.
A doctor retained by Alex Rodriguez for a second opinion — one that contradicted the New York Yankees' diagnosis of his leg injury Wednesday — was reprimanded this year by New Jersey's board of medical examiners over steroid prescriptions.
Even if you're not a big baseball fan, you've probably heard that former National League MVP Ryan Braun has been suspended for the rest of the season in connection with the MLB's probe into performance enhancing drugs (PEDS). Many feel the Yankees' Alex Rodriguez is next.
I think it's safe to say we've moved past the point where we get surprised when professional athletes get caught up in performance-enhancing drug scandals. The latest one in Miami involves a doctor, a handful of well-known baseball players and a boatload of HGH.
