    The Yankees were exploring the possibility that Rodriguez was in violation of baseball's Collective Bargaining Agreement by seeking a second medical opinion without notifying the club first, a source said.

    ESPNNewYork.com takes a look back at A-Rod's best -- but mostly worst -- moments as a Bronx Bummer Bomber.

    According to Article XIII, paragraph D of the CBA, "a Player shall inform the Club in writing" before seeking a second medical opinion. A Yankees source said Rodriguez did not inform the team before consulting with Dr. Gross, although it was unclear what recourse, if any, the team would have other than to force Rodriguez to bear any costs incurred in obtaining the second opinion.

    What's next? The Yankees check and see if he cheated on any spelling tests in the second grade? What a Mickey Mouse organization this is turning into.

    Bill Parcell's said it best "You are what you are" We have become a laughing stock of MLB. Like drunk playboys who have so much money but don't know how to act.

    First Hank
    Then Cashman cheating on his wife, swept neatly under the rug
    Hal who doesn't want to be there

    This is what we have become

    Arod really needs to read the tea leaves and realize that the yankees, baseball fans, and the entire whole of MLB just want the guy to go away. I know he loves to play the game and yadda yadda. He is done. Shot. Finshed. His legacy is dead. He can no longer prove anything to anyone. He has to chip on his shoulder worth fighting for because no one cares. He is fighting to play but no one but him wants him to. Pride is F'ing with him when he really has no pride left.
