60 Minutes is reporting this morning that Alex Rodriguez may have done quiet possibly the most Alex Rodriguez thing ever to cover his own ass.

“We’re watching one of the greatest right-handed hitters who ever lived.” That’s what an AL scout told ESPN’s Jayson Stark this week for his new piece, titled “We are witnessing greatness,” incidentally, about slugger Miguel Cabrera. The article details just what a ridiculous thing Miguel Cabrera has become, ridiculous as…
Ahhhh Alex Rodriguez, such an easy target these days. Love him or hate him, you gotta admit the hometown slugger just makes poking fun at him so effortless. With A-Rod still dominating every tabloid in the nation thanks to a certain newspaper (ahem ahem) blowing the lid on a certain…
