A-Quad is Healing

A-Rod’s injured quad doesn’t seem to be too serious. In fact, A-Rod thinks that he’ll play tonight against Cleveland, although his role would be reduced to DH. However, I wouldn’t be surprised to see A-Rod sit all weekend. The Yankees have a viable DH in Hideki Matsui and they won’t want to play him in the OF since it would cut time from Melky (who seems to be hitting everything), Damon or Abreu. Damon and Giambi are both showing signs of life so I doubt Girardi would want to take them out at this very moment when A-Rod can simply rest up a bit more.

We’ll see what happens against those pesky Indians.
