can we shift the focus and Alex Rodriguez in the eighties because it's
just
a totally cluster fuck at the situation so about
was a month ago Brian Cashman basically
I'm saying summarizing he told Alex Rodriguez to
shut the fuck up and then there's been this see-saw battle back and forth with
a rod and
Brian Cashman in the Yankees organization and
do you wanna time in your smirking no I just it's a there's been so much
happening
it's a so the air I hired another doctor he got a second opinion without the
team's knowledge than the team was pissed about
you get a second opinion with the guy the doctor who saw a lot of other leave
his doctor grose even the rabbit diagnosed with a grade one quad strain
yes
that allow the Yankees not to Brians date him from his rehab assignment at
the end it is disabled list and allowed them to return him essentially the sable
list which will now get them
another rehab stint at the end of this disabled list them in the eighties
they don't wanna they don't they don't wanna be a naughtiest
but I mean they're gonna have to take because a rat is clearly gonna fight
whatever suspension is coming his way yeah it's apparently big
there's some talk with this man Tim Kirk another way of saying that it probably
won't happen
and will as the last night he said this problem won't happen this year
yet because every player is gonna fight the suspension
and by the time the appeals process plays out hard to imagine that that's
going to get done
by this season so the suspensions will happen next year
yeah I so now Ryan Braun
saw an opportunity with the Brewers out in it yeah
to take it and get it over with so he took it but Ryan Braun so unless they
cut a deal like Ryan Braun
and there may be some other players who choose to go that route
or at least take a balk at this year so that's why correction as saying that
iraq may not be suspended this year
but the I don't see how I i've read
to everything I've read i buy when it says that the players association is
as much as they hate a rock tunes on
you can't let a player be suspended have lifetime ban for this you can't be a
it's a drug violation it's not hidden is not Aaron Hernandez
on so 150 game seems to be with their
which is essentially season yep so as anonymous the eighties then spoke out to
the New York Daily News in the region if you go to get your take
guys are tired of it as an era the media circuits
thats revolving around alex is insane and we haven't even seen me just keep
going it's like a carousel they just keep going around and around and around
at some point it has to stop I would like his bat in the lineup
we can obviously use it because the potential for some home runs which they
rank 24th
Major League Baseball I would help us a lot but with the circus that surrounding
right now
I don't think anybody wants that when it's all said and done your humor
more than enough comments from the guys in here you'll be able to write it for
weeks
I think that was a teacher a nice yeah that sounds like a teacher a
totally yeah I'm I don't know man I I can imagine the Yankees the one back in
all the players want to back it doesn't like the players I remember having is
batting line-up
this is a bad that's been free ordinary
for the last two years it's not too bad it's been all too bad
playoffs terrible the playoffs but it's a bad that then now is coming back from
to hip surgeries me talk about guys gonna look like
our pools running he can run so I don't lie I know they don't want him back but
they got no choice
they're gonna get out of a season that money probably with a suspension which
is nice man that could be
yeah $25 million bucks and he's not going to make any milestones except
Willie Mays if he comes back and says a couple years
wallace Matthews really quickly the espnnewyork.com tell me what you think
about this
and a-rod said he's ready to play his Wii balls mattie's rights Kasman
should have said forget Friday night get on the plane explain to Dallas
your the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Rangers and at that
point
Iran would have no choice but to take the bait a risk truly being in breach
his contract
for insubordination and failing to comply with the club of a club or
to gladiators wanna come yet me was showed up
so here's what he says we've learned in one day will now take a couple more
weeks to truly know
namely how badly his house our biggest still wanna play based on how well as
the able to still do it they will find out the big what they can I like that I
like that was Matt I don't think they can keep him out for the year
on and if they do then they won't have Alex doesn't mean maybe
you know the only thing that Alex can get outta this is it he decides
I'd rather save my embarrassment and I'd rather take thirty million dollars
instead of 100 on making that number up
now he does that then many go away but he's not going to do that
so the others does he really thinks he can play
you may know one million to I would think he does wanna play
I mean I mean maybe that's just my I leave cell number I would imagine he
likes playing baseball
nice talkin to this this how do you embarrass himself by the way
the winning self out there I mean I mean if he it runs like fools that goes to
Vegas for Fortean
done any home runs you know they'll be embarrassing in camp and over gamble
either
I'm it's possible we should he's 37 he's 37 38 37 37 he's had a couple hip
surgeries
and we've had declining skills to begin with this guy might be done
I mean the disk I could be Brandon Inge now was an awesome guy but I mean
you're saying he'll hit zero home runs in the home run derby I'm sorry my get
179 you know
so II I feel bad for thrown Brandon Inge and you have a holy day
yeah I did I like Brandon still not very versatile player he was great for them
the A's last year yeah
great guy by the Pirates just-released on
so were you know I have I don't know I i think is good chance that he's
terrible or I wouldn't I would be surprised if he came back and produce
like he did the last two years
and the gate 16 home runs into the last two years any miss some time
so this is a guy who gets to seventy it was laid to rest the years will be
played from August 10th on
he is a guy who might hit 270 and it fires XO months possum
so well what is the best case scenario for a ride I mean it sounds like there
isn't much but what would be three riders to come back and two ways to
what you said you had to be 65 to 85 summer be confident player
to be able play 130 games at third base and you know and him
260 270 or maybe higher and hit somewhere between you know 12 and 25
home runs to bend and
and be a contributed player be a better than slightly maybe better than
replacement level third baseman
certainly better than with the Yankees with that you know David Adams and they
played guitar Brent Lillibridge you heard yesterday with I was shocked to
see that
yeah I mean the end of the line up your side that on the Yankees yesterday with
fake money
and I because not only because Kuroda was pitching
and but that yeah I almost didn't because the lineup is just
I mean it's putrid yes an embarrassment yeah it does it's less reason the White
Sox coverage it's like i rly
it's like the post make email Yankees is just terrible
so you know a but could a ride contribute and and be a moderately
productive player of course he got it silly to think you could but I don't
think my guess is he won't be
Brent Lillibridge big fan about the Halo series on x box
is that right yahoo.com you know that is you you do
yeah I mean I've never actually expecting a more people line-item
as always local news stories about when halo 12 comes out there always these
kids have never had sex lined up around the block way I yeah that's what it is
now
I waited for game at one point my life no I waited for Madden
08 outside light on the sidewalk yeah
