MLB is seeking a speedy dismissal of New York Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez's lawsuit challenging a season-long suspension.
Tampa officers reported Rodriguez was driving a red Mercedes the wrong direction on a one-way street. Tests determined his blood-alcohol to be 0.10 percent.
Paul Cartier's worlds are about to collide. He is the organist for both the Islanders at Nassau Coliseum and the Yankees, so it's only fitting that he will play the organ on Wednesday night when the Islanders host the Rangers.

The Yankees have traded left-hander David Huff to the Giants for cash, two days after he was designated for assignment by New York to make room for Japanese ace Masahiro Tanaka.
"The game is pitching," Jeter said. "If you have great pitching, you always have an opportunity to win. From everything I've heard, he's going to be quite an addition to our team."

If Tanaka and his Beethovian six-pitch mound symphony can turn into a No. 1 or No. 2 rotation option immediately, his richness in texture and rhythm can transform last year's also-ran into a contender. But let's not get ahead of ourselves here.
It seems there is at least one player who is unimpressed by the Yankees' offseason spending spree. Of course that player is on the Red Sox -- the world champion Red Sox he might add.
It seems the Yankees were steadfast in their budgetary discipline. Until they weren't. And thank goodness for that. Not only are we spoiled Yankees fans better off, but so is baseball.
Baseball seems far away; this latest snowstorm and recent blasts of frigid air certainly remind us that it will be a while before we hear "Batter up!" And yet, two names have not really gone away.
Asked to deliver a message to New York fans in English on Thursday, Tanaka said he plans to let his performance on the field do the talking.
