Plenty of A-Rod Books Still Available

by Josh AlperFiled under: Yankees, AL East, MLB Media WatchHave you read "A-Rod: The Many Lives of Alex Rodriguez"? Judging from the sales figures, you haven't. Selena Roberts' expose of the Yankees third baseman is languishing on store shelves a month after its release. HarperCollins printed 150,000 copies of the book, but Nielsen BookScan reports that just 16,000 copies have been sold. According to the Associated Press, 11,000 of those copies sold during the first week of release. Given the nature of the story and the intense media coverage preceding its release, it's unlikely that too many interested readers were unaware of the book's availability.Plenty of A-Rod Books Still Available originally appeared on Fanhouse MLB Blog on Wed, 10 Jun 2009 16:56:00 EDT .
