The New York Yankees have asked many things of Alex Rodriguez, but right now the best thing the organization can do is hope the most overpaid player in baseball never returns from his injury. It sounds ill-willed, but the Yankees can get more from their A-Rod insurance policy than the production left in the player.

Rodriguez is facing a 100-game suspension, if Tony Bosch can clear up all the facts and provide details on why the players showed up on a list in his clinic. Rodriguez is tied into this mess that was uncovered at the beginning of the year. Rodriguez was coming off a poor playoff performance and he immediately underwent a hip surgery that has kept the All-Star third baseman away from baseball as he is currently recovering.

Found guilty and Rodriguez could just give up on rehabbing. It will be a season gone down the drown. Then what if he returns in 2014? Would you want to pay a fraud over $80 million from 2014-2017? Rodriguez's legacy has practically gone down the drain. He needed to cheat in order to handle the pressures of playing in New York. He needed to cheat in order keep the hype that arrived with him from the minors going into his career in the majors.

Who will respect anything Rodriguez does now? The man had his chance to come completely clean before and he sort of tip-toed his way around a confession. In 2009, when Rodriguez had a miraculously good postseason and the Yankees won the World Series, his name came up in the Biogenesis notebook. Relapse maybe?

Rodriguez's body has deteriorated and, apparently, also very dependent on PED's to play the game. His injuries attest to side effects of PED's as well as the sudden surges in his career. The past two years have been abysmal as the slugger didn't hit over 20 home runs or drive in more than 70 runs. For the Yankees, they felt they were ripped off, but then again, they were giving all this money to a guy who came through baseball during the steroid era. The best thing they can hope is that Rodriguez steps away from the game so they can get a refund check and rebuild this team who has no backbone or direction in the future.

Rodriguez doesn't need the money. He's having more success flipping houses at the moment. Maybe he should stay in that business.
