Jeter: Yankees Need To Move On From A-Rod 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Mon Feb 10, 2014 9:50 pm

With Alex Rodriguez suspended for the 2014 season, Derek Jeter says the New York Yankees need to move on from the third baseman.


Rodriguez ended his extended fight with Major League Baseball on Friday, withdrawing a pair of lawsuits.


"He's not here for this season, so we're going to have to find ways to win with the team that we have,'' Jeter said. "It's a complicated situation, but it's pretty much played out. That's what has happened.''


Rodriguez was given a 211-game ban last year by baseball commissioner Bud Selig that was reduced to 162 plus the 2014 postseason by arbitrator Fredric Horowitz.


"You'd have to ask him how he feels about it, if he's glad that it's over with,'' Jeter said. "It's a situation that he has to deal with. Now it's over and it's done with, and we'll move on from there. But you'd have to ask him how he feels about that.''
