Alex Rodriguez is "super excited" for Friday night, though he has to be aware of the reception that likely -- OK, definitely -- awaits in the Bronx.
"I don't think he needs to," Vernon Wells said. "Everyone knows what the situation is. Everyone is fully aware of everything that's going on. It's not a distraction in our eyes; it's something he has to deal with."
Alex Rodriguez has been booed lustily since his season debut, except for when he was hit by a pitch Tuesday. Will it be more of the same at Yankee Stadium?
Alejandro De Aza's two-run double in the 12th rallied the Chicago White Sox to a 6-5 win over the New York Yankees on Wednesday night, hours after New York's Alex Rodriguez appealed his suspension.
The other 12 players accepted 50-game suspensions, but Rodriguez said he planned to fight. Union head Michael Weiner said the punishment for the third baseman was "way out of line."
Johnny Damon, A-Rod's Yankees teammate from 2006-09, exclaims that if A-Rod was using PEDs during the 2009 postseason, the significance of winning the World Series is certainly lessened, if not completely diminished.
The saddest irony would be seeing Derek Jeter fade before Alex Rodriguez, whose place in the history books is now dubious at best.

The only thing they have in common is that they excel on the diamond. And even then, the battles in which A-Rod is embroiled in clearly call into question the validity of Rodriguez's achievements. He is presently in the fight of his life.
It's time to realize that those who refuse to admit that Rodriguez has royally screwed up are beyond assistance. We will call them "A-Rod Apologists." You are an "A-Rod Apologist" if you...
His fellow Yankees welcomed him back into the locker room and dugout, but also gave their opinions on PED usage in MLB and the associated punishments.
A-Rod was booed Monday in Chicago. It'll happen again Tuesday and Wednesday, and during his home debut Friday. Just don't expect any piling on from the Bleacher Creatures.
Baseball knew it had a PED problem in the mid-1990s. Had Selig truly cared, he would have blown the whistle and sought measures to clean up the game.
No doubt the ratings were fueled by some unique baseball theater: MLB announced a 211-game suspension Monday for A-Rod, who vowed to appeal before taking the field in his 2013 debut.
Once the greatest player of his time, Rpdriguez was reduced Monday night to saying that he was humbled, at 38, just to "have the opportunity to put on this uniform again."
"If all the allegations are true, then I'm glad they got caught and I'm glad baseball is doing something about it," Royals reliever Aaron Crow said.
A-Rod is determined to go down swinging. And the next two months could be his last hurrah.
Alex Rodriguez blooped a single in his first at-bat of the season hours after being hit with a long suspension, but that was it for the embattled slugger as the Chicago White Sox ripped the Yankees 8-1 on Monday.
The Yankees star will appeal the ban, which takes effect Thursday. He'll be allowed to play during the grievance process and made his season debut Monday night in Chicago.
