Alex Rodriguez to Be Released

[Mike Huntertz]

Will play his final game on Friday. About to time for his old ass to be gone.

His pin cushion ass is outta here!

I thought he was signed through 2017? are they just paying him out his last $20+ million to stop playing?

I wouldn't be surprised if he agreed to retire with pay. As somebody else mentioned he probably got caught doping again.

That's why Big PEDy is retiring.......got caught.

You hit rock bottom when you do steroids and still can't hit the ball. But as long as some sucker is paying you $25 million to put on a uniform it's all good.

Yanks just avoiding arod hitting 700 in yank uniform

[Art Vandelay]

I think he 3rd in the list, in the all time home run hitters list

On the list of "legit" home runs he is well down the list. Good luck getting in the Hall...

Not afraid to admit it A-Rod one of the best looking athletes in baseball. Guy dated Kate Hudson basically a 9/10 A list celeb. With 500 Million in the bank the guy is ridiculously lucky. Looks, Money and the ability to have any girl he wants. The very definition of the American dream. I'd be his lackey for free just to get a glimpse of how he lives his life only if its for 1 day. Guy's a certified stud!!

Players on the juice perform better and make for a more entertaining game. Let them juice all they want.

That's totally ignoring the fact that sports is a competition before it is entertainment. Atleast it used to be

The Twins don’t look like a match for Alex Rodriguez, Mike Berardino of the St. Paul Pioneer Press writes. Minnesota probably isn’t in any position to give at-bats to a veteran when the team has so many young players, and A-Rod’s inability to play the field is also a factor. “We’ve got a lot of DHs. If you’d ask me if he’d be a fit here, I don’t see how we could find any place to get him much of an opportunity,” manager Paul Molitor said.

I would think that Arod would want to go to a contender anyway.
