Hip surgery per ESPN. Now what? They have absolutely nobody to replace him. The fact his brother announced it and not the Yankees would lead one to believe they are frantically trying to make a trade. Cya Kennedy or Hughes or both.
The bigger concern I have is Posada. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/134417-ny-yankee-woes-continue-alex-rodriguezs-cyst-may-need-surgery-posada-dh
Yankees might have to make a major trade. 10 weeks is the best case scenario. Have to blame the Yankees for not addressing this earlier. They knew it bothered him last year.
Best quote ever. But ya, Yankees are fucked. No Pussada, no AFraud, an awful outfield and Jose Molina catching. Good luck.
The Yankees had 4/5 of their starting rotation out half the year last year and still only missed the division by 8 games. This year the rotation is twice as good and will probably stay somewhat healthier. I wonder what they would have done if they knew this 2 days ago before Manny signed.
They had to have known it was a possiblity. His hip has been hurting since last year and the likelyhood of Posada coming back full strength was close to nil. What would you rather have in OF? Bonds/Damon/Nady or Damon/Cabrera/Nady
Door 3........And I agree, I fully blame the Yankees for this. Specifically Cashman..but then I blame Cashman for everything that goes wrong with the Yankees.
Not sure. He's batting about .600 this spring or so it seems. Cabrerra is batting closer to .000. Actually, they have gotten a lot closer since I last looked. .417 to .273
This is odd. It's been over an hour and still nothing from the Yankees. I wonder if it's flat out wrong, or they are getting a second opinion or deciding whether he can play with it anyway. Only is brother is talking right now.
Geez one of my friends had surgery for an ovarian cyst and she was fine in a couple of days. A-Rod's going to miss 2 months for his?
Maybe not half a year and maybe it was if you add it all together. Wang missed more than half the year. Chamberlain missed a couple of months. Hughes and Kennedy started and were basically never heard from again after May. I'll let you give me the exact numbers though instead of your one word nonsense. In any event they will have no problem beating Boston this year. Tampa, we will see. Hmm..maybe that was 3 out of 5. I totally forgot about Mussina. Out of sight, out of mind but the way Pettite folded at the end of the season I'll let him take somebody's place,
Crap I just busted out laughing!!! Does anyone else remember when Giambi was coming off his steroid use? He missed most of the season with a virus? .... hmmm Just my inner conspiracy theorist at work
