Alex Rodriguez Nervously Awaiting Invitation To Spring Training

February 15, 2007 | Issue 43?07

NEW YORK - All-Star third-baseman and Yankee roster hopeful Alex Rodriguez is still anxiously waiting to receive official word that he has been invited to join the team in Florida for 2007 Spring Training, Rodriguez reported Monday. "I'm still confident, but I heard that Derek [Jeter] and Jorge [Posada] already got theirs, so I don't know what's taking so long," said Rodriguez, who has spent the past four hours peering out his front window waiting for the mail truck to drive by. "Maybe I should call the Yankees to make sure they sent it to my right address? They wouldn't have cut me. No. Certainly not. I'm sure there's a simple explanation for all this, and I'm just obsessing over nothing. Oh God, what if I was traded?" Rodriguez added that, should he not be formally invited to spring training, he will nonetheless show up, act like he's supposed to be there, and hope no one notices.

To move their AAA team closer to NY (Wilkes-Barre, PA). More Yankees fans there too.

So, it wasn't an arranged marriage?

TAMPA, Fla., March 28 - George Steinbrenner ate dinner in the cafeteria at Legends Field on Wednesday night, with his daughter Jessica beside him and her husband, Felix Lopez, next to her. Lopez merrily took out a cellphone and snapped a picture of his wife and his father-in-law. It was one big, happy family.

NEW YORK -- Roger Clemens is a Yankee.

With those five words, displayed on Yankee Stadium's matrix screen in a surprise announcement during the seventh-inning stretch on Sunday, the 44-year-old right-hander ended all the speculation and confirmed his return to the Bronx.

Marietta College alum, Matt DeSalvo is making his MLB debut Monday night at Yankee Stadium.

He was a scrawny FR when I was a SR. I hope he sticks. He is all heart.

I hope you Red Sox fans don't dismiss this news as irrelevant.
