Alex Rodriguez

Another day, another instance of controversial news regarding New York Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez.

Fool me once—shame on me. Fool me twice—get out of baseball forever.

With new allegations arising that Alex Rodriguez has been using performance-enhancing drugs (via Miami New Times), the New York Yankees are reportedly attempting to void the veteran slugger's remaining contract. 

The New York Yankees are fed up with Alex Rodriguez and the drama that surrounds him.

A new scandal involving performance-enhancing drugs has come to light, but don't expect it to rock Major League Baseball down to its very core. As damning as the latest news is, it's unlikely to put MLB's PED protocols on trial.

If Alex Rodriguez ends up missing all of the 2013 season following hip surgery, it might end up being a fortunate development for him. That is, in terms of avoiding the media. 

It's amazing how Alex Rodriguez finds himself in the news all the time.

And unfortunately for the New York Yankees, it's potentially another embarrassing situation.

Spring training is rapidly approaching and Opening Day is on the horizon. Teams will begin flocking to their respective training camps with a clear mind and with hopes of winning their respective divisions and make a deep push into October.
