If Commissioner Selig is so insistent on having an extra Wild Card team in each league, then I have a solution. Is it a perfect solution? By no stretch of the imagination. It has its holes, and many would cry foul if it was ever implemented, but I can guarantee than it's far more fair than what's currently in place.
With the hot-hitting Robinson Cano on deck, Alex Rodriguez whiffed -- again -- to end the game Monday night. So is it time to drop him in the batting order? Not according to the Yankees' manager.
