mlb doing the Yankees dirty work
Major League Baseball is going hard after A-rod (Alex Rodriguez) by trying to get him out of baseball until the 2015 season and it all because they really want to help the Yankees after they have been pumping millions of millions dollars into the pockets of the other owners for decades. So they have been paying the luxury tax that puts money into the lower budget teams while their fans walk into other stadium and drop their hard earn money into the pockets of one of the other 29 owners in the majors.
The thing here is that the Yankees want A-rod suspended so they do not have to pay him 25 million dollars for the 2014 season and if they could of gotten out from under the last 86 mil and the last four seasons of the contract for a guy who is a shell of his former self as he is broken and the production has falling off completely as he has 34 homers and 119 RBIs over the last three seasons as he has not played a game until tonight (August 5, 2013) in Chicago.
The Yankees and A-rod are perfect together as they are both completely into themselves as A-rod does not care about his former wife as he just strut his stuff in downtown Toronto on the streets with his arms around strippers which was final act of his marriage even though he had been going behind her back with lots of other ladies of the night. He became an anti-hero when him and his former agent Scott Boras got the Texas Rangers to give A-rod a 10 year - 252 million dollar deal when they made up rumors about the New York Mets wanting him when it was only the Rangers bidding against themselves and became a mega anti-hero when he became a Yankee and saying mine as he went around third base as a runner and Blue Jay Howie Clark back away from the ball and it dropped to the turf and three runs scored.
The Yankees could of just let the contract run out after the 2007 season when A-rod and his agent opted out of the last three seasons of his contract and when A-rod realized that nobody wanted him and he fired his agent and went crawling back to the Yankees and got them to top of his contract and he ended up getting a 10-year 275 million dollar deal. They did this not because they liked him or were trying to be a nice boss but because he had a chance to break Barry Bonds career home run record and were looking at the money that a home run chase would bring in so they just looked the other way when he was first caught in PEDs and just put their heads in the sand and looked the other way as he kept taking more PEDs as he marched to the home run record. So as soon as they realized he was not worth the paper his contract was written on and was unable to break the record they wanted nothing to do with him.
So MLB is run by Bud Selig who when baseball was all juiced up and look the other way as McGwire/sosa home run single season record chase that saved baseball after the 1994 strike but bud got his guy in Ryan Braun just before he leaves
