On Wednesday, Alex Rodriguez, or “Al”, as Joe Girardi referred to him, skipped Yankees team photo day and went on to hit his 600th career home run off Shaun Marcum, the only active Major League Baseball player that spells his first name the same way that I do.

It’s sad to see, especially since Nathan, who turned 35 in the offseason, had surgery in October to remove bone spurs from the same elbow to prevent an injury like this from occurring.

The devastating news didn’t come as a total surprise, since it was announced yesterday that Nathan flew to Minnesota for an MRI, just a couple of days after leaving a spring training game against the Red Sox due to elbow soreness.
