I think he has 4 years left on his contract. If he gets suspended through 2014, he still has 3 years left and the Yankees will be on the hook for it. That's a lot of money for an over the hill player who hasn't played in 2 years and who's skills were diminishing even before the injuries and suspension.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio
