… don’t hurry back, Alex.
No Soup For Yu!
How funny would it be if A-Rod was one of the upcoming/expected PED suspensions? Personally I’d find it hilarious.

It would mean the end of his career. They Yankees would shed his contract, get under the cap next year, and start the rebuilding process.

… one can only hope.

There’s no big names involved. I sincerely doubt he’s one of them.

Not funny Alex is a heck of a man who was lost now he found his way back

Not a Yankee fan

It would be less embarrassing if you were. I have no idea why anyone would suddenly respect A-Rod now.

It won’t be unfortunately since they already announced no star players are among those getting suspended probably a bunch of minor leaguers and utility guys
Cam
Gee, the USA sure loves tearing down the big guys..
dan-9
What is that supposed to mean?

@Dan It’s called the “Tall Poppy Syndrome” more common in Australia and England than the US. Look it up its really interesting.

The Yankees need to retool, and they need to do it before they turn into the Phillies of a few years ago. They have had some bad luck with injuries, made some poor judgements in signings, and, because of the big money contracts ahead of younger players, have often traded the youth to keep the ship floating. Now, it’s time to accept reality, The fans will accept it–they know that the team needs help–and not the type of help where a younger player is traded for an older, more expensive one just to fill a position.

Agreed. A retooling is way overdue. Headley needs to go back to the NL. Beltran should be traded to a team in need of a DH so Judge can take over RF. Maybe trade McCann for starting pitching. Sanchez is ready to take over. Settle for a losing season this year and hopefully nab a top ten draft pick. Then sign Strasburg. It won’t make them world series contenders but should get them under the tax penalty and make them competitive again.
