Mid-May Return At The Earliest For A-Rod
Mar 9, 2014 5:43 AM
If Alex Rodriguez's hip surgery and rehabilitation go well, the best-case scenario would be a return to New York's lineup in the middle of May.
"He's excited, this is what he wants to do," general manager Brian Cashman said of Rodriguez. "He sent me a number of text messages. You can tell his tone was: My mind's made up. I've got a plan and it's a good, solid one. This is definitely the right way to go."
Rodriguez had been deciding between playing through the injury and having the surgery.
A return in mid-May would mean that Rodriguez would miss roughly a quarter of the season.
