You?ve probably seen the stories suggesting that Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez ?is unlikely to ever wear the pinstripes again? due to issues with his surgically-repaired hip or that he?s ?scared and paranoid? about how people will react to the Biogenesis stuff. But it?s mostly garbage.
A-Rod said through a spokesman Thursday that he?s rehabbing?diligently?in New York and looking forward to returning to the Yankees around the middle of the 2013 season. Andy McCullough of the Newark Star-Ledger transcribed the short statement:
?Right now I?m dedicating 100% of my energy and focus on my rehabilitation. I am conducting two rehab sessions each and every day in an effort to get back on the field and rejoin my Yankees teammates. I think we have a great team and I want to be a part of it.?
The Yanks signed Kevin Youkilis to a one-year, $12 million free agent contract this offseason to fill in at the hot corner. Rodriguez, 37, batted .272/.353/.430 with 18 homers and 57 RBI in 122 games last summer. He is owed $28 million in 2013, $25 million in 2014, $21 million in 2015, $20 million in 2016 and $20 million in 2017.
