 Alex Rodriguez-3B- YankeesJan. 29 - 9:03 am et
Alex Rodriguez thought his career might be over last spring when he was forced to undergo surgery to repair a torn labrum in his hip.
A similar injury ended Bo Jackson's football and baseball careers. But the procedure to repair such a thing has improved greatly in the last several years. "Staring at retirement right in the face, kind of like Bo Jackson, that is the first thing I thought of," said Rodriguez. "Then having [Dr.] Marc Phillippon just doing an amazing intermediate surgery as we called it, it was a commitment I wanted to do for the team." Like him or not, A-Rod should be selected with confidence among the first five picks in drafts this year.

Alex Rodriguez will not require a second surgery on his right hip.
It was alluded to in October, but Rodriguez received the official diagnosis after visiting Dr. Marc Philippon on Monday. "You can never say never, but I think he is saying for the immediate future, the next two or three years," said Rodriguez. He's good to go as a Top-5 pick in mixed leagues next season.

Alex Rodriguez went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts for a second straight night Wednesday and is now 0-for-8 with six whiffs in this World Series.
A-Rod entered the fall classic on a tear, having posted a .472 batting average (17-for-36) through the first two rounds of the '09 playoffs. He looked incredibly locked in, but all that has changed. The boo birds will begin chirping again soon if he continues to struggle.

Alex Rodriguez finished 3-for-4 with a two-run homer and two runs scored as the Yankees topped the Angels in Game 4 of the ALCS.
A-Rod joined Ryan Howard and Lou Gehrig as the only players to collect at least one RBI in eight straight playoff games with his two-run blast in the fifth inning. He's now 14-for-31 (.451) in this postseason and 6-for-16 (.375) in this best-of-seven series. The guy is locked in, to say the least.

Ed Price of AOL Fanhouse reports that a follow-up surgery on Alex Rodriguez's right hip may not be necessary.
"I need a little more tests, but so far I don't think he will need surgery," said Marc J. Philippon, who performed the initial surgery on the slugger back in March. "I just watched him in batting practice and examined him. And clinically, he certainly doesn't need any intervention at this time. It's very difficult to make a formal, definite statement right now. His power is excellent and his rotation in his hip is excellent." Philippon said Rodriguez's hip was at about 95 percent right now and should be 100 percent by spring training.

Alex Rodriguez homered twice in the same inning to drive in seven runs against the Rays on Sunday.
A-Rod hit a three-run shot off starter Wade Davis, then added a grand slam off reliever Andy Sonnanstine in the Yankees' 10-run inning. The seven RBI in an inning is an American League record, and the two homers moves A-Rod into a tie for eighth place on the career list with Mark McGwire at 583 home runs. Despite missing all of April with a hip injury, A-Rod finished with exactly 30 homers and 100 RBI to go with 78 runs scored and 14 stolen bases. He's now finished with at least 30 homers and 100 RBI 13 times, including each of the last 12 seasons.
