Has Alex Rodriguez accepted his fate? A-Rod says his 162-game suspension could be considered "a favor" despite filing a lawsuit against MLB and its players' union in an attempt to overturn it.

Carton says that A-Rod is finally ready to give up the fight by taking the year off. Boomer says that Alex is starting to make sense.

Roberts' deal was agreed to on Dec. 17 and finalized Tuesday, three days after a spot on the 40-man roster opened when Alex Rodriguez was suspended for the season for violations of baseball's drug agreement and labor contract.

"I don't know why he's being so stupid," Bradshaw told Joe & Evan. "But then again, he's stupid. He took that stuff. Why, I have no clue. And he got caught. Say 'I'm sorry' to the world, and you deserve your punishment."

Despite reportedly having a thing for Japanese phenom Masahiro Tanaka, the Texas Rangers appear to not be among the finalists to sign the Japanese right-hander -- or weren't before Derek Holland was lost for months.
Joe Tacopina suggested Monday that A-Rod -- who is suing the league for what he calls a witch hunt -- could file "additional actions" and defamation lawsuits based on assertions made by Anthony Bosch and MLB's COO.
According to Dylan Hernandez of the Los Angeles Times, who translated a report from Japanese media outlet Sports Hochi, the Yankees are one of three major-league teams that Tanaka will consider signing with.

According to CBS News, Bosch claims that he personally delivered banned substances, including testosterone, insulin-like growth factor 1 and human growth hormone to Rodriguez on multiple occasions and Rodriguez paid him $12,000 a month in cash.
