A-Rod to play for the Dominican team

Which opens the door wide for Evan Longoria.

Rodriguez was criticized for his indecision the first go-round, and is likely to catch more flak in the U.S. if he does indeed announce that he will flip-flop teams in 2009. But because of Rodriguez’s highly public divorce and an affair with pop singer Madonna, MLB may be inclined to shift its marketing focus for the U.S. team to young stars such as Ryan Howard of the Philadelphia Phillies, Evan Longoria and B.J. Upton of the Tampa Bay Rays, and Joe Mauer of the Minnesota Twins.

I could give two craps...

as long he stays healthy, and puts up his usual “odd-numbered years” stats in pinstripes – he could play for botswana, for all I care.
