QUOTE (YASNY @ Dec 4, 2012 -> 12:07 PM)  He did mention that the Yankees carry insurance that would pay 70% of ARod's salary, so maybe ARod doesn't 'officially' retireso he keeps getting paid, but in fact is effectively finished. Now that I could see, but not his total retirement. |

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Dec 4, 2012 -> 12:06 PM) I heard it was the other hip, not a re-tear. I wonder if his "one year" of steroid use has anything to do with it. Not usually. PEDs usually effect muscles and tendons in the short term. It's usually not the static structures like cartilage. However, there is no telling what the abnormally increased strength does to the other structures indirectly. There is also anecdotal evidence that the brain is also effected. The growth factors are centered in the brain. I still think many of the post-concussion syndromes from former football player ie. Dave Duerson has a link to a combination with PEDs and not just the concussions. |

QUOTE (YASNY @ Dec 4, 2012 -> 12:03 PM) On MLB Network's Hot Stove, Harold Reynolds just predicted an ARod retirement due to this 2nd hip surgery. The injury really isn't that serious of a surgery. They just go in a remove the loose material. I'm not sure where they get this "major surgery" bit. If he retires it's because he doesn't want to do the rehab. |

MLB @MLB
Brian Cashman confirms A-Rod's injury 'pre-hab' is going well and he's scheduled to have his left hip surgically repaired later this month. |

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 16, 2013 -> 02:51 PM) What in the heck did they do in there that would necessitate a 6 month rehab? That is a really long time for hip arthroscopy. Edit: Nevermind I just looked it up. It wasn't just a labrum. The was a bone impingement and a cyst as well. This post has been edited by ptatc: Jan 16, 2013 -> 03:39 PM |

Cashman suggests ARod could miss the whole season.

Sometimes they could only get a portion insured. Apparently, or at least a huge portion. I read somewhere where the Yankees wouldn't really mind it were career ending. It would save them over $100 million. His contract runs through 2018. |

It would save them over $100 million. His contract runs through 2018. That's not uncommon. It is usually easier to get career ending insurance as opposed to a season ending injury insurance. Thatis why they think that way. For some of the bigger contracts it may be something like 40% of the contract for a partial season (number of games specified), 75% for a season and 95-100% for a career ending injury. The actuaries look at the probability of each one happening and base it on that. Career ending would save them alot. |

Jeff Passan @JeffPassan
Forget a buyout or retirement. @TBrownYahoo with the news: A-Rod has every intention of coming back. |
