"I have nothing to hide," Ryan Braun said in a statement released by his representatives on Tuesday night.
Yankees reliever Joba Chamberlain said he's received a text message from new teammate Kevin Youkilis and hopes whatever tension existed between the two is past.
"He's scared, because he thinks this is so unbelievably false, and he's wondering who could be behind this," a source told the New York Daily News of the latest PED allegations.
Sitting on a stage with their manager and GM during a fundraiser, Mariano Rivera and Mark Teixeira vowed to welcome Alex Rodriguez back to the New York Yankees following the latest drug allegations against the New York Yankees star.
"I don't comment on anyone until they speak first," Jeter said on Monday. "Let him address his situation before I comment on it. Let him speak first and then we'll talk about that."
The Yankees are good, not great. And that's probably not good enough, especially when you gauge how they gouge you at the turnstiles. $5 waters and $10 beers don't taste too hot when the team gets cold and old.
Cashman has to realize that his offense can still use a healthy, productive Rodriguez. It's easy to dismiss him as finished after the way the 2012 season ended in October, but let's not forget that there was a major injury present.
Alex Rodriguez has had Anthony Bosch personally come to his Miami home to inject performance-enhancing drugs, according to a report.
The Yankees and their fans may want Alex Rodriguez to just go away. But if you think A-Rod will just up and retire, think again.
Yes, I understand how badly you want Alex Rodriguez to just go away. Unfortunately for all of us, it's just not that simple. And it's probably not going to happen anytime soon.
Whatever happens, the Yankees most certainly should not expect any help from A-Rod himself. He's not walking away from anything.
I've been alive and lucid for about 37 of the 47 Super Bowls, and it's hard to recall a game this big shrink in the shadow of peripheral stories.
The Yankees have come to terms with free-agent Travis Hafner on a one-year deal, according to multiple reports. The power hitter will receive a salary in the vicinity of $2 million.
Once considered a player who could shatter the career home run record, Rodriguez has transformed from All-Star to annoyance for some in the Yankees organization.
Multiple sources have reported that New York is interested in signing the 35-year-old free agent as the club looks to find a more suitable bat to serve as designated hitter.
If the new allegations were true, the Yankees would face high hurdles to get out of the final five years and $114 million of Rodriguez's record $275 million, 10-year contract.
On Tuesday, the Miami New Times blew the doors open on Anthony Bosch and his anti-aging clinic, Biogenesis. There was A-Rod's name, among others, reportedly listed in "an extraordinary batch of records."
Alex Rodriguez has become the disaster du jour -- an endless loop of errors off-the-field that dwarf any gaffes on the diamond.
"Yeah," Cashman replied when asked if there was a chance that A-Rod could miss the entire season. "I think because (of) the serious nature of the surgery and the condition that he's trying to recover from, you know, there is that chance."
Dr. Bryan Kelly of the Hospital for Special Surgery, who operated on A-Rod on Wednesday, said last week the extent of cartilage damage was a concern and could not be determined before the operation.
Team USA released its provisional roster for the World Baseball Classic on Thursday, and both New York baseball teams will be represented. First baseman Mark Teixeira is the only Yankee on the roster, and David Wright is the only Met.
The 38-year-old team captain reiterated Wednesday that he is on track to be in New York's starting lineup for the opener on April 1.
No matter how well the doctors repaired A-Rod's hip, will he be able to resemble something of his old self after missing so much time at 37?
Alex Rodriguez had surgery on his left hip Wednesday and is expected to be sidelined until after the All-Star break.
A-Rod needs to find a way to stay on the field. And while surgery might help, I can't feel with any certainty that he'll return to being a significantly productive player.
