I actually find that kind of interesting. In the contract it's labelled as a "marketing agreement" that he gets $6M for passing each of five HR milestones. I don't think they'll try to redefine "milestone". I think the obvious angle is to say that because of Alex's conduct he's defamed himself and the Yankees so much that the Yankees have lost all marketing opportunities from him passing those milestones. If Rodriguez passing those milestones is no longer marketable then, at fault by his own conduct, he should not benefit from the marketing agreement.

I like Kruk

The team is Shulman, Kruk, Schilling, and Olney on the sidelines.
-
Dan Shulman?

sly mofo bts benches clay buttholez before he got murked tonight.

Anyone else cheering for A-Rod to set some new career highs this season?

There might not be a SP in the game that I enjoy watching get hit around more than Clay Buckles. Oh, maybe Ivan Nova. Or Horse Face.

gritty performance by brryant - lot bts to claw back a couple of pitching ratios at the last minute.

can't really see it without slo-mo / stills but his arm is a bit late.
-
He's been on the watch list for a while. Mechanics aren't great + small stature + past elbow stiffness/soreness.

Kike-el only does that to cover up his gross weird ogre neck: http://a.espncdn.com/combiner/i?img=/i/headshots/mlb/players/full/31815.png&w=350&h=254

Maybe Saunders. He's like an Abercrombie model, except Canadian. Hutch has a nice beard.

I think that the strength of relevant muscles is probably important to some degree but I don't really think that size = relevant strength when it comes to those muscles. It's not like you need beefy forearms to support the elbow. To strengthen those muscles you'd be doing like, grip strength stuff and little bitty wrist curls. Sale could be a twig and still have 80 grade flexor muscles. But there really isn't any special reason why Chris Sale stays healthy, I think he just illustrates the general point that all of this s*** works in the range of probabilities and nothing is certain. Pack-a-day smoker can live until 90!

ew not even close

A multi HR day from Rizzo would be swell....
-
The flexor muscles support the elbow in concert with the UCL though. That's why you see so many forearm strains as precursors to a blown UCL. Either the torn UCL causes a muscle tear as a first symptom, or a muscle tear puts more of the stress load on the ligament and causes it so snap.

Rule #1: Don't throw Lunchbox a meatball. -
Didn't he miss half of spring training?

By 2016 your rotation could conceivably be as good as a lot of playoff teams.

Skunkings are like DDL no-hitters.

Chance that I can skunk FeatherD if one of his relievers walks a couple dudes. Fingers crossed, keep me in your thoughts & prayers.
