It’s an open secret that the New York Yankees don’t want third baseman Alex Rodriguez, back in the lineup, not with the impending suspensions that are supposedly coming from Major League Baseball, so this is an injury they may welcome.
Rodriguez, who was expected to return to the team on Monday, after missing the first four months of the season due to a hip injury, injured his quad during his rehab stint in the minors and according to the team, he’s going to have it checked out.
Later today, 3B Alex Rodriguez is scheduled to have an MRI and an exam on his left quadriceps with #Yankees physician Dr. Christopher Ahmad.
