The Yankees' extra-bat-off-the-bench in the playoffs, Alex Rodriguez, will be out for six months, following surgery on his hip that is set to take place in January. Guess A-Rod doesn't want to be out of service for the holiday season. "Hey, I got a date with this smoking hot, butchy female and she wants me to dress up as Santa and sit on my lap. Can we do this whole hip-ma-whosie Jan one?" That's A-Rod talking to his doctors. Yes, A-Rod says Jan instead of January. BTW, I Googled A-Rod surgery and the first article was at Latino dot Fox. A-Rod is as Latino as Taco Bell. On the fo' really tip, why can't he go into surgery right now? He's getting paid approximately four hundred million this year and he wants to delay surgery so he misses an extra month of the season? The $17 million that went to Russell Martin just shook its head, incredulous. If there's a legitimate reason for the delay that I didn't read about, there's no legitimate reason, so don't bother telling me about it. Maybe if Pasta Diving Cap'n Jetes would get hip surgery in December than A-Rod would, as well. Well, even before Rodriguez came down with the appropriate hip problem, he shouldn't have been drafted. He's actually done us all a favor. Now he's pushed himself so far down draft boards that you won't even have to think about it in, say, the 12th round. For 2013, I'll put his line at 40/13/44/.263/6 in 300 ABs. He's firmly in the "Do Not Touch" section of your draft board. Anyway, here's some more offseason moves for 2013 fantasy baseball:The post A-Rod Is So Unhip appeared first on Fantasy Baseball Blog at Razzball.com.
