A-Rod has pulled down over $350M in earnings over his career. Factor in his gains on real estate, investments, and endorsements and he's probably worth over half a billion.

So my question is: How fucking dumb does he have to be to trust what was left of his tattered credibility to some shady schmoe that's running his business out of a suite at a repurposed Comfort Inn?

YOU ARE FUCKING ALEX RODRIGUEZ. If you're going to dabble in the roids pay several million to hire your own personal mad scientist to cook your cocktails and tell him you'll have him shot and dumped off a yacht in South Beach if he rats you out.

Note to professional athletes with hundreds of millions to burn: Don't put your first ballot HoF career in the hands of whack jobs with nothing to lose that run "laboratories" from strip malls.

This whole investigation hinges on how MLB is going to go about it. Is Bosch going to take the stand and swear an oath and testify verbally or is he going to produce documents, signatures, cancelled checks, credit card receipts, log books, scheduled dates etc?

I would hope that MLB is smart enough not to take anyone's word at face value and have some sort of documentation to corroborate their allegations.

I don't watch the Home Run Derby because it makes as much sense to me as having quarterbacks throw long bombs with no defense, but if they're going to have it at least select the participants in a way that makes sense.

David Wright selects Michael fucking Cuddyer to be in it? Why? Because he's his friend. Hell, let's put his gardener in it, too. Meanwhile, Dominic Brown, Pedro Alvarez and Paul Goldschmidt are 2nd, 3rd, and 4th in the NL in homers. But I'm sure the fans can't wait to see Michael Cuddyer take his licks.

Those who choose to watch this 3 hour snooze fest can enjoy listening to Chris Berman say "back-back-back-back" repeatedly. I'll find something else better to do, again.

Mets in Pittsburgh tonight. David Wright gets booed his first time up. Pedro Alvarez hits his 24th over the center field wall his first at bat. :slappy:

I've always wanted to see the HR derby have guys like Nick Punto in it....where 3 or 4 HRs might win the thing, instead of watching big lugs just get tired of swinging the bat.

Then in turn, have a stolen base contest for guys like David Ortiz, Prince Fielder, Miguel Cabrera....etc
