A-Rod on the DL…

by Anthony Amobi

The Yankees officially placed star third baseman Alex Rodriguez on the 15-day disabled list Wednesday with a Grade 2 strained right quadriceps.

The reigning AL MVP first injured the muscle on April 20 against Baltimore, and missed the club’s next three games before returning April 25 against Cleveland.

Rodriguez aggravated the injury in Monday’s 5-2 win over the Indians while running out a grounder in the fourth inning. He was hit by a pitch on his left thigh in the sixth inning and was lifted in favor of pinch-hitter Johnny Damon in the eighth.

Seems like the Yankees are walking wounded these days, eh?
