Quad Squad
Alex Rodriguez re-injured his quad last night:
"There is no way I am playing [tonight]. If I had to guess I will miss more than one game," said Rodriguez, who missed three games last week and felt it getting out of the batter's box running out a ground ball in the fourth inning. "I thought I pulled it a bit. It's important to get it right."
We're starting to see age catch up to the Yankees. The only older stars with a good OBA this year are Damon and Matsui. Jeter, Rodriguez, Abreu,Posada and Giambi just aren't creating the opportunities they usually do. I would guess they'll all break out of this slump at some point, but it's not a given. Just like young teams like the Diamondbacks can suddenly gel, old teams like the Yankees can just as suddenly fall apart.

I'd love to agree, but I've heard this record before...namely, last year.
