A-Rod Linked to PED's Again

Two PED stories in one day? Lance Armstrong must be jealous.

We've covered football and now onto Baseball and PED's once more. The Miami New Times has obtained a list of names from an anti-aging clinic in Miami of people who have received PED's from them. On the list are players like Gio Gonzalez of the Nationals, Nelson Cruz of the Rangers, and Melky Cabrera of the Blue Jays. Also on that list is Alex Rodriguez of the Yankees who has already been linked to steroids in the past.

Alex is already denying his involvement in this story. Meanwhile, reports are saying the New York Yankees are going to be exploring avenues to try and void A-Rod's contract which still has $114 million left on it over five years. Whether they can get out from under the contract or not due to PED's remains to be seen but it would certainly be a first.

This seems worse than last time with drugs and A-Rod. He's apologized and tried to move on and now there are reports saying that he's back to old ways. What adds insult to injury is the fact that he has stunk the last couple of years and that the drugs aren't helping if he has indeed taking some more.

If I was part of the Yankees, I would want to get out of this deal and figure out any way to do so. If I was a fan of the Yankees (which would take a "Bullet to the Head"), I would boo A-Rod wherever he was and wouldn't stop until he was gone from the game completely. He has just been bad news for the organization.
