A lawyer for MLB, Matthew Menchel, confirmed Wednesday the league dropped its case against Biogenesis of America, its owner Anthony Bosch and several other individuals.
"I'm not going to get into a media war with Lloyd McClendon," Yankees hitting coach Kevin Long said. "He'll probably win that, anyway."
When you get ready to call a show to foolishly rip a future Hall of Fame shortstop, make sure you say right at the top if you root for or hate the Yankees. This way, we'll know if you're an idiot or a jealous idiot.
The team said the store manager decides on which jerseys he thinks will be the best sellers, and they said Alex Rodriguez's model had not been available there for several years.
"Last time I checked, I didn't know that Kevin Long was the spokesman for the New York Yankees," McClendon said. "That was a little surprising. I was a little p----- off, and I'm sure Joe (Girardi) feels the same way."
The Yankees signed Japanese starting pitcher Masahiro Tanaka to a seven-year, $155 million contract on Jan. 22. As far as Yu Darvish is concerned, the Bronx Bombers paid too much money for his countryman.
The Yankees are still waiting to see if they made the right decision on a trade they pulled off back in 2011. Needless to say, it's been that long of a road back from injury for Michael Pineda.
"I know he hasn't played a full season in the last few years and he's obviously a guy that has some age on him, too, but my plan is to run him out there almost every day," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said.
These Bombers are -- for the most part -- nothing more than mercenaries, hired guns. And they will fire and kill their opponents with their quick bats, speed and power. But will it be all that special when they do?
The outfielder hit .296 last season with 24 home runs and 84 RBIs, reaching the World Series for the first time. Now he's on a team that expects to be in the World Series every year.
Cano is no longer a Yankee, yet we're still talking about his giddy-up -- or lack thereof -- to first base. "If somebody told me I was a dog, I'd have to fix that," Yankees hitting coach Kevin Long told the Daily News.
"There's not one guy that has to carry this team, but absolutely I expect to hit in the middle of the order, hit 30 home runs and drive in 100 runs," said the first baseman, who was limited to 15 games last season.
While some Yankees fans engaged themselves in some minor hand-wringing over Masahiro Tanaka's middle-distance running capabilities, just as many Mets fans wondered why on earth Ike Davis is still on the roster.
The Yankees' first baseman said he views the team's down year in 2013 as an aberration. In his mind, an offseason spending spree transformed his team.
CC Sabathia got up from his chair in the corner of the New York Yankees' spring training clubhouse and looked almost slim — at least for him.
