Here Is The Home Alex Rodriguez Just Sold For $30 Million

Alex Rodriguez reportedly just sold his Miami Beach mansion for $30 million, and it looks like it is worth every penny.  According to numerous sources, Alex had purchased the home for a mere $7.4 million in 2010.  I am definitely not a math major, but that seems like a decent return on investment.  The full listing is available on Sotheby’s, and you can take a tour of the digs...

Cashman's prayers are answered: Seattle scorns Jesus, as Pineda resurrection looms

Well - as Steve Jobs said to Bill Gates - you never what to believe when you cut a deal with somebody from Seattle.All last year, the Jesus Montero trade - (I believe I called it "the debacle") - looked like a long range Yankee death and the reason to - as Hunter Thompson would say - stuff Brian Cashman into a bottle and put him out with the Japanese tide.  Today, vindication...

A-Rod a budding real estate mogul?

Injured Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez already rakes in more dough than any player in baseball, earning $30 million a year for playing -- or, this year, not playing -- like a shell of his former self. And as it turns out, A-Rod also has a pretty good real estate racket going, too. According to TMZ , the 37-year-old Rodriguez, who has been on the DL all season following January...

Jeter uses 'Philip' alias for Starbucks order

I can't quite put my finger on it, but this "Philip" character looks familiar. According to the New York Post, Derek Jeter was spotted leaving a Greenwich Village Starbucks with the name "Philip" on the side.  Which means one of three things...the New York Yankees captain is still using a pseudonym when in public (he used to go by "Johnny Drama"...

East division rivals, the Baltimore Orioles. On a good note, however, David Adams, the rookie 3B, provided a spark of optimism. The Yankees had seven hits last night, half...

Yankees: Do you think Vernon Wells is an All-Star because I certainly do

Plain and simple, the New York Yankees would not be boosting a 28-17 record. Vernon Wells in 2009 (Photo credit: Wikipedia) Nor would the Bronx Bombers be sitting pretty atop in the AL East. And you can bet they wouldn’t have the third best record in the Majors without one thing? The outstanding play of Vernon Wells. This by no means takes away from the overall chemistry this makeshift...

The Yankees are about to become the most ungrateful team in sports, and I am now dreading the return of the superstar lineup

Damn. I feel like the cad who falls for his best friend's fiance, while the guy is off at the Star Fleet Academy. I keep telling myself, "No, this is NOT happening! I'll break it off!
