Alex Rodriguez played in a simulated game Thursday, probably the last step before the New York Yankees send him on a second minor league injury rehabilitation assignment — if he's not suspended first.
We aren't angry at A-Rod because he makes the most money, but because he told the most lies. His montage of malfeasance is galling even by our subterranean standards.
Alex Rodriguez might not make it back to the Yankees this year. Or ever. MLB is threatening to kick A-Rod out of the game for life unless he agrees not to fight a lengthy suspension for his role in the sport's latest drug scandal.
"If (Commissioner) Bud (Selig) lets them get away with that, they're under the luxury tax," Showalter told USA Today Sports. "If they can reset, they can spend again and I guarantee you in two years Matt Wieters is in New York."
Former Dodgers pitcher Hiroki Kuroda and current Los Angeles ace Clayton Kershaw dueled for much of the game, with neither allowing a run. Then came the 9th inning.
MLB has told the union which players it intends to suspend in its drug investigation. Three-time MVP Alex Rodriguez is on the list, according to CBS News.

Do something for the fans, the ones who faithfully come out and sit in those expensive seats, whether behind the plate or in the bleachers, to watch this injury-depleted, controversy-entangled team. Do something to show them they count.
Mark Ellis delivered the winning single with two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning to give the Dodgers a 3-2 victory over the Yankees on Tuesday night.
"That really surprised me, bothered me, and I felt like some of the people in the organization didn't believe my story, and it was time to get out of there," Martinez told Booger and Rich. "...It makes me feel terrible, that's the only reason that I'm speaking out."
It's been a lot to digest -- that's for sure. In question-and-answer form, here is a look at the issues and implications of Major League Baseball's possible suspension of New York Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez.
Yankees pitcher Andy Pettitte has never finished a season with a losing record in his 17-year playing career.
To let Alex Rodriguez slide is to implicitly say that cheating is rewarded at the highest level of the sport. Major League Baseball must make an example of him.
Whenever Alex Rodriguez speaks, we listen, and his latest quote is guaranteed to dominate the headlines.
"If (A-Rod's team is) going to fight this thing like they claim they're going to," Madden told WFAN radio, "then it's going to get very ugly."
A-Rod may have to start serving a suspension as soon as it is announced rather than wait for a grievance to play out. And merely threatening that position might give MLB leverage to force a deal.
It's tough to keep up with all the action in MLB. Here's your recap for the week ending July 29, 2013.
During the Yankees-Rays game this past Saturday, YES Network commentator and former Yankees and Mets pitcher David Cone may have let a swear word slip out while on the air.
There's always been this intangible quality about Jeter. You can't quite put your finger on it. It's hard to quantify what gives Jeter the supernatural ability not to feel pressure and rise whenever the Yankees desperately need a spark.
Jeter returned to the New York Yankees' lineup — again — with customary flair, making an immediate impact on a team desperate for power.
It's the nightmare scenario for Rodriguez: fight a lifetime suspension for his alleged role in MLB's latest PED scandal or accept a ban until the 2015 season, which could very well end his career.
