Alex Rodriguez poses for suggestive pics with his favorite person

Image

C'mon, vogue, Alex.

Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself, Christian scripture insists. In this photo shoot for Details magazine that apparently has just fluttered onto news stands, Alex Rodriguez skips the middle man and gets right to loving himself in a number of pouty poses.

Some quick observations/critiques:

• Is he practicing kissing himself in the mirror? You'd think he'd have that down by now.

• Can't afford sheets, eh? Oh On his salary?

• I hope the tire-as-prop is an ode to hanging a tire from a tree in the back yard and using it as a pitching target; otherwise, it's a mosquito hazard.

• Way too much eye makeup.

• I think I see Selena Roberts hiding in the closet!

No matter what readers here — or on Deadspin and the Sporting Blog — make of these shots, these pics are only the second-most embarrassing controversy for A-Rod to confront this year. He brought both on himself. Lucky for Alex, he's off healing from hip surgery and doesn't have to address this with reporters. Or with Derek Jeter, who would have done the Details shoot classier, sassier and sexier — no questions asked — for photog Steven Klein.

• A-Rod claims to ride the Subway to work ("The fans love it, I love it").

• A-Rod worries about revealing which Madonna song is his favorite ['m betting on"Beautiful Stranger"]

• He loosened up for the shoot with shots of Patron.

• He wears a Kabbalah bracelet — an indication that Madonna ain't far away.

• A-Rod does not order food at dinner.

The wiretap now has it:

Teammate On Magazine Spread: What Was A-Rod Thinking?

Even when Alex Rodriguez is in Vail, Colo, recovering from hip labrum surgery, he manages to grab headlines.

The New York Yankees star third baseman is the cover story in Details Magazine this month, though the pictures accompanying the story and the timing of the interview are grabbing more attention than anything he said. In one eye-catching photo, Rodriguez is nearly lip-to-lip with himself in a full-length mirror.


One player in the Yankees' spring training clubhouse saw the photo on the cover of the New York Post and snickered at it with a couple of teammates. Copies of the paper made their way around the clubhouse.

The magazine's cover photo is benign, of A-Rod with black pants and tie wearing a white collared shirt with the sleeves rolled up and collar loose. The other pictures feature Rodriguez in workout clothes on a mattress and in front of a mirror in what looks like a garage or warehouse.

"What was he thinking?" mused one anonymous teammate.

Another wanted to know if Rodriguez realized he was being photographed and was surprised when told it was a professional photo shoot. Most just shook their heads or shrugged, with a couple saying you'd never see them in similar pictures. One Yankee said: "Don't worry; we'll be sure to make fun of him for it."

When shown the picture before Team USA's game in the World Baseball Classic, Derek Jeter appeared a little taken aback but said he had no comment, shaking his head and saying: "All sorts of articles coming out." http://www.lvrj.com/sports/41420782.html

Not to pile it on the poor little douche, but now some of his emails to his stripper girlfriend have been leaked.

And those pictures made my day. Who kisses themselves in the mirror, takes pictures of it, and then has it distributed? And is he crying in that last pic?

The atmosphere at the shoot was very loosey goosey. Give him a break.
